River Rock Open Ride - Saturday June 5 ???

Drapper is a cool guy, did he run all weekend with out bending a spring or breaking anything? He will usually beat his rig in the ground.

At first it was just me and my buddy in his stock JK.  Draper took us on what he called an easy trail.  The trail turned out to be more than my buddy wanted to tackle so he took a bypass and I followed Draper.  And it was a fairly easy trail (just behind the showers).  When we came back out to the camping area, we stopped at what Draper called the "articulation park" (two "U" shaped trails right next to each other) which is where I almost backflipped my Jeep.  Two other guys showed up, one driving what I believe was about a 2000 Toyota Landcruiser and the other driving a stock JK on street tires (his first time ever 4 wheeling).  So after that, Draper took us where there was some medium hard stuff that also had bypasses so he didn't beat on his rig at all.  He said they were going to go out again later anyway. 

I must be doing something wrong attaching the video because it keeps attaching two of the same video, but here is the first one.

river rock is an awesome park. wish I could have met up with yall. steve is a great guy and always willing to help anyone who is friendly. drapper doesnt normally beat his junk too hard until he has about a 5th of jager in him. those guys from JMA are a fun crew to [night] ride with.

last time i saw him, he snaped the front driver leaf, refused to stop, beat on it somemore, then 5min later broke the passneger leaf, and repeated the next day..... but he sure is fun to watch.  {toast}

No damage to his rig when we left, but we left around 7:00 PM.  I did exchange numbers with him so we can wheel with him again though!  Here is the video taken about 30 seconds after I almost back-flipped the Jeep.  The cameraman had left the camera in his Jeep and ran and got it after all of the excitement was over as you can tell by the comments at the beginning of the video.

I guess there are some places lockers could help.  I probably could have made it if I had aired down.  I didn't have my compressor with me so we wheeled the entire day with full air pressures {hihi}.
