Was Nemo tunnel --> Now Jellico V-notch, cave and arch

Before anyone gets on here and starts talking smack, I just want to say the cave was awesome.

Had a great time hanging out with @trigger @The Green Goat and @futzin

That was a great ride. Four P5's so no mechanical drama. I ended up on my side once, no fault of the machine, I just took a bad line. Lee did a great job leading the ride and is an absolute animal at the things he'll attempt. I'm sure pics will be posted later but he tried to climb an obstacle that was absolutely impossible to do with a 500, left the rest of us in awe.
Great people and a great time!

I always enjoy these POI'S in the area.

I have now seen a P500 guy Send It.
Well done, sir!

Great time with great folks...

Thanks Lee, for leading our P5 pack!
Great ride...

 

[The Green Goat]

Awesome ride. Thanks again guys!

Absolutely hate that I had to sit this one out.. but sign me up for next years ride ! Sounds like it was legendary!

 

[futzin]

My wife has a few pics I need to get my hands on.
They're after the main event (@lee); we were too amazed in the moment for pics or video (but I hear video of it does indeed exist, somewhere!).

I ended up on my side once

I didn't see nothin'!

I didn't see nothin'!

Well, to be clear, it didn't go all the way over. Green Goat said that my spare tire propped up against a tree and that's what stopped me from going fully on my side. I know we were past the point of righting it on its own, I even started to creep forward and the Goat yelled to stop! The nerfs gave the cavalry something to stand on for the rescue and on we went. Could've been ugly without the help. Thanks guys!

 

[Mudwisel]

I may have to get me a p500 just so I can go on this ride

 

[futzin]

Without the nerfs y'all would have undoubtedly died!

What would a P5 Ride be without a near flop? 'Course, then @lee happened . . .

Who's the dude in the red shirt hanging off the side? He looks like the guy that did trail 9 in a 500 with a spare tire hanging off the rear. I never figured out who he was or if that's even him.

I don't know, but he's got a lot of counterweight in the driver's seat to balance out he spare hanging off the rear. Turns out, it comes in handy!

I wish I had me some of them nerf bars.

 

[futzin]

I've ridden with you. They wouldn't last long!

I think everyone should have a set. Even if they don't own a P5.

Now I see what you mean about the tree holding us up. Doesn't look like the rear wheel is that far off the ground but I think the front was definitely in the air. Here's some of the pics the wife took.

The first hill...


Like most of the ride, pretty rocky but this area was tame enough to get a pic...




Some of the sights...



When Lee went into Beast Mode...


Kickin' it on the trail with some great folks/friends...
