still going so long as i got a babysitter. doing the tune up on the Kawi on friday.  :Y

thats frickin hilarious

removed

We got a flyer for it while we were at pumpkin run but lost it....

I remember it was gonna be on the 22nd and 23rd, anybody got any more info?

heck yah, the run was awesome. Its got to be the hardest, most diverse trail ive ridin so far.  I really got a chance to push my new bike and im glad its everything i thought it would be.

Tim and Shawn, great ridin with you guys, cant wait to get another one going out in holopaw. For the other members i didnt get a chance to meet im sure ill bump into you soon enough, after this one im gonna try and start doing more events. 

Only complaint I had was nobody was helping eachother out on the trails. That guy in the kubota was stuck bad, and his group just rolled right by him. It was like that the better part of the night, some guy on a brute force took out a tree right next to shaun when we were where getting tim unstuck.  scary stuff.

otherwise it was awesome, lots of cool bikes. Cant wait for the rabbit run!  ill throw some pictures up later after i get them on photobucket  :ThumbsUp.gif

ill be out there with a blue 08 grizzly with 27'' mud sharks, does anybody know if theres gonna be any good distinct spots out there? ive never been before.

Ill be there! looking forward to meetin some of the folks here on a site.

Im planning on going out to Holopaw tommorow for the day. Im coming from Melbourne and should be out there around 9.  If anyone wants to tag along just let me know, i been really muddy lately so it should be a good time.

Ill be there, is this one of those events were your required to wear helmets? 

Im in the market for a new bike, but im kinda stuck on what i want to get. I want something reliable with brutal power.  I want something that will survive the water and mud, but wont take a dump halfway through my day of riding.  So whats tough and dependable? Ive heard yamahas and Hondas are the best.   I like the grizzly's, they seem to have a radiator thats placed up high so maybe its less likely to overheat when its muddy? I also like the adjustable stocks. I love the Polaris Sportmans b/c of their insane grunt. But the more I read, the more it seems they're a real hit or miss machine. Ive heard horror stories of melting plastic's and blown transmissions. Polaris's are good enough for the military, but how are they with the heavy weight for water crossings?  And then theirs the Arctic Cats- I road a Thundercat and its terrifying.  I know its a new machine, but who has Artic Cats and how dependable are they?  Simply put, i want to know what works and what is crap. 

Thx!

I was dumb enough too to buy from HOP. I get my bike and brought it home, cracked the diff's and the fluid was grey. They didnt even do the recall on my prairie before they sold it too me.  I took it to Champions in Cocoa to get the recall done and had no problems. There is a reason this place used to be called Cons...

Dirtbooger, if you really dont like the way things are run out there then go to http://www.suburbanestates.net/.  The site was created and run by land owners. They orginize clean ups, and work together to prevent alot of the crap that goes on out there.  The just organized a fundraiser for a lady with cancer.   If you dont like how things are going out there, then join the site and talk with some of the admin.  I think your missing the whole point of suburban estates in the first place: you can go there, do what you want, with as many people as you want, whenever you want.  Rivers Ranch has more land, but they also charge you for everything you do, and cap how many people you can bring with you, tell you how long you can stay, all under the pretense of "were bigger then suburban estates".  They're really strict, and that sucks.  Dont harp on someone because there doing something they have a right too as a land owner, but also because he's been responsible about it.  If you feel that strongly about the problems out there, get with other land owners and confront the idiots who are makin the problem. 

Besides, if it wasnt for guys like Mudman i'd of sold my Praire months ago.  I love this sport but im not getting a criminal history over it. 

If you really want to blame someone, then pin it on the stupid @$$es who destroyed great riding areas like down in grant/ valkaria by burning down tree's, striping cars and leaving tons of garbage everywhere. 

If you really dont like it in Holopaw anymore, sell your land at an obnoxious price like everyone else, and move to Canada.

last i heard it was shut down and they blocked the entrances, used to be a fun place to drag race.  But for the same reasons i stopped going and why they shut it down, too many people being dumb and gettin hurt.  Watched a guy flip an R1 on top of himself at about 100mph, havent been back sense.
