Man where do i start? What a great weekend, we had Wild Weekend TV,Dirt Trax Television and Side X Side Action Magazine on hand for the whole weekend Grin

Friday started with guided rides, the extreme ride left out at about 9:15 with about 15 quads ans SxS's. From what i heard they had a good ride. The Moderate ride left at 9:45 or so.Rob,Denny and myself took this one out.My dad was along for the first time too, so i was pretty excited Cheesy We started out on 98 and headed through the park trouble free until we got on 89. A prowler had a flat and the tire came off the bead. Rob and Denny came to the rescue and got it all fixed up. I think they scared a few folks in the process Grin after that they turned back as we headed for the overlook on trail 92 for lunch.
From there we went to 43,44,93,30 and finished up on #1 at about 4:15 so the folks could go see the entertainment that started at 5 Wink It was a short but good ride.
The easy ride left with only JC leading and  4 riders from Wisconsin. They crossed our path once and it looked they where having a blast Wink

We made it up to the concert for a little while. The guy who did Johnny cash was dead on Cool

Saturday started early for most of us getting the finishing touches done. After the sound system was hooked up we got the show running. There was a huge crowd all day long at the event field and they got to see some great races and sled pulling. Then came the pole bending Grin the sport quads went out first and some of these guys burned up the course Shocked that was fun to watch. then Ol' Chop hit the course with Nick from Side x Side Magazine strapped in the passenger seat. They didn't make it through the first turn and ended up on there side Grin
The mud bog went out next and went off without a hitch. Then the ladies dash for cash. With a pot of over 600 bucks Shocked there where a lot of competitors. After that most folks headed out to ride or get some dinner and prepare for the nights big event Daryle Singletary and Ricochet. I'll have to admit we never made it back up for the concert so we will have to get a report on that from some one else Grin but i do know that the crowd was HUGE !

Sunday started off with a little clean up and then the Bubba Run. A group of us went out at about 2:00 with Nick and Mike from Side x Side Magazine and made it to the first 3 stations and at about 4 figured out that we couldn't make it to the last two on time, so we went for 87y Grin Grin after doing some ride swapping me and Nick in my RZR and Denny and Ashleigh in his RZR headed out 87 and up 87y to meet the rest of our group at the intersection of 95. I think Nick liked it Cheesy The night ended with a small cookout and a planning session for the side x side event in the fall Wink

I want to thank EVERYONE that was involved !!!!!! an awesome job was done by all !!!!!

I have some pictures i'll post a little later Wink

WOW JB you need to write a book!!  We had a BLAST & can't wait until the Fall SxS event!!  Ashleigh went to school today talkin' her head off about the trip, ridin', the events, the sunburn, the great food & the "guests" we had!!  You couldn't describe the weekend even better.  Everyone who couldn't make it this weekend needs to make sure they come in the Fall.  Thanks again for all the fellowship & fun!!!!!

had a great time, but didnt do any events...wanted too but there were just so many people! It was extremely dusty so we hit the trails. Saturday had some friends bust some tires and stuff, but we went back to the hotel and rode wheelies in the field for several hours..people came out to watch, it was hellarious. Sunday went all over brimstone with just me and 2 friends. went down to 78y and OWNED the hill climb. It was cool that the road was blocked saturday, but it was very hard for me not to ride mile long wheelies...I refrained of course

thanks guys!

Well what can I say except THANK YOU to all. What a weekend good friends and New friends. Good music and great events. We had it all and good weather to go along with it. I want to say thank you to all the gang that helped out and hopefully come september it will be even bigger and better.
Thanks to the owners of Brimstone for building such a great  place to have an event.

What as awesome weekend!!!! I was left with a sunburt face and a couple bruised knees from the ladies dash for cash, but it was worth it.  Grin  It was great to get to see all our riding family and spend more time adding memories to look back on. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to let others play hard. Can't wait to have a repeat event! Grin

Nancy & I had a great time riding on Sunday with Dr. Dirt & the gang. We split off with Pianoman to get back and retrieve our pup from their trailer before they headed for home. We still logged about 50 miles on our new Rhino/Grim Reapers. Got a little over 100 miles on it now, time to change the oil & filter, lube it, etc.
Thanks to all who made the weekend possible and hoping to see our friends return for our wedding @ Brimstone. I think we'll be doing it at the Bluffs, possibly a late wedding with Tiki torches on a Saturday night in June.
