Oct. 17 Aetna Ride Discussion Thread

[No, the main reason I was coming was because Ben wasn't going to be there.  And see, since he's not going and neither am I, I'm leaving the state entirely.  Just to limit the chances of bumping into him on the roads.

Besides, I would kinda enjoy watching you try and run over "dead" trees again.  It's been a while.

You need to get out more, I almost always hit a tree, usually it's backing up, you just happened to show up on one of my better days.  ;D  But by the way a eased around RR for 5 or 6 hours Saturday without hitting any trees, I guess that means Fall Crawl might be ugly 

I was out at RR yesterday finishing up a little project of mine and helpin steve out. he said he will be gettin the back hoe out on the trails all next week to "prepare" for fall crawl...thats never good. haha.

he rags on you pretty hard every time i talk to him. then again he kinda blames me for bringin you out there. he'll probably just make a few jokes at your expense.

I plan on going!

Aetna is fun, as was mentioned, I took my stock TJ (worn out 30" GS-A's) thru there. The hardest part was the first section, going from the path up to the actual mountain, the big holes and stuff, without some basic flex ans grippy tires can be tough, but other then that, there should be no problem. This place is one of my favorites.

My TJ is still stock to many, 1"BL/MML, discoed and 31" M/T, yet it totally transformed it off-road, made it rather capable, actually I found this setup to be fun, atleast for me.... keeps things a challenge but lets me keep up. Next mod is a tummy tuck, which includes oil pan skid - i don't know how many more bashes that thing can take.

I'm not going to be able to go.

Will someone take some pictures for our GATR Myspace?  Or someone just volunteer up their pictures.  Gotta keep it updated.

Thanks guys.

I am signed in for the ride. Guess I will lead folks around. I will parking on the lease side. Can somebody get the group up to the power lines or do I need to come down and get everybody.

I've only been there once before and that was a couple of years ago.  I don't know if I could find my way over there or not.  Hopefully someone else can step up here.

I've never been there, so I'm like you Seth, can somebody that has been there a few times step up and get us to the powerlines?
Seth, you still gonna run a shuttle for me to the tow pig? Looks like Richard may need a ride also.
