I worked all last night and had been up almost 24 hours but 60 degree weather and it had just rained.....how could I resist? Went to my usual spot called Iron Gap. That's the muddiest I've ever seen it. Here's a couple pics.

Picture is a little deceiving but those rocks were tall lol. They were over knee high. Took 2 tries but she crawled right up them. I was very impressed.

Last challenge of the ride. Steep grade, rocks, and red clay. No problem for baby girl.

Another perfect day for riding but didn't have oil n filters for the Pioneer yet. So I drug ole faithful out to play. Nowhere near the comfort of the 1000, but still a very capable and fun 4x4.

Forgot to mention one thing from yesterday's ride with the Pioneer. Noticed how warm my buns were getting from engine heat coming through the seats but then I hit some deep water. Can you say instant sauna?? Lol. The steam coming from the seat will have you doing the broiled lobster dance lmao. Seriously though, it's extremely hot. Gonna need to do some modifying to the engine compartment

It is rare that I get the chance to go ride. Even more so two days in a row. Highs tomorrow are around 50. I doubt I'll go a 3rd day but ya never know lol. Hate to let all that deep mud go to waste lol

Another good reason to use insuletion under the seat. I used the Kno Knoise insulation, seems cooler in the seat, but I haven't had the chance to run it hard enough to be sure.

I sure hope it helps cause I ain't joking about the steam being hot. All those days I didn't ride cause of it being cold were wasted I guess. Engine heat would've kept me warm (well my butt anyways lol)
