Next workday is coming up this next weekend. I think this is the last one for the year. Unless you have your group out there doing one on a different day. There is already a email from Terry out there about what she wants to get done. I will try to get on a computer to copy it here in the next few days unless someone else can get it for us.


Can someone stop by the barn across from the Outpost and grab the tools please. Both Augers are needed please. Thanks much.

Thanks in advance for coming out.
 
So who got video of the Trailhawk on RML? I would like to see it :) Also thanks to all the volunteers out there who work on keeping up the trail. I'm going to do my best to make it to a work day next year.
 
Had a good time even when Murphy's law was against the rock crew.... Poor Trailer. It needs a new Heavy Duty Tougue.

Did I haul 4 or 5 loads of Rip Rap?

Oh and Daystar Air Bag Cradle Kit DID NOT work as advertised!
I will be calling them tomorrow!

Just put them in Friday night and they are in pieces today!
Update:
Called Daystar, New set on the way, they want the Broken ones ASAP, they have never heard of my failure to date. I will keep posted regarding results.... Service seems good so far!

Loved the performance of the KORE coil springs and Fox Shocks!
The Mini packs will go on soon as time permits.

Suspension maxx links Sway bar links were a cinch to disconnect.

And my new tires did good too I think! Nitto G2 285/75R18

I did not plan on using my Truck that hard yesterday but I had a blast. Wish we could have gotten the Third site worked on with reinforcement Rock. Maybe in December.... Or the 12th weekend??? Any volunteers?

It was great being on the Trails with everyone again!

Had a good time with our group on Dickey Bell hill climb also. Got the whole right side illegal trail bypass shut down now. About 10 quads turned around at the bottom because they could not make it up the real trail. Job done seeing that.

Sorry to hear your truck had damage.

I should be out there on the 12th and would be happy to help, just post up or drop me a PM if you could use a hand.

Truck is Good, I am proud the way it handled all that Rock on the trail.
But I was hoping for better performance out of the Daystar parts.

I guess I need to have a set of Billet Aluminum ones made!!!

If I am in the USA I hope to make it down there the 12th weekend.
Whether or I work on trails is yet to be determined.

See you guys next time.
 
Thanks for uploading the video! Been to Uwharrie a bunch in my Rubicon over the past 2 years, and this was our first time out with the Trailhawk. I talked her into letting me take it out Saturday for the Scavenger Hunt over on the UROTC grounds. We just happened to get down there about an hour before we were scheduled to do that, so we had time to kill. I didn't even think about it being muddy out on Saturday. Good thing you all had just laid that rock down or I would have been in a bad spot I think. The TH definitely needs some more robust tires to deal with the mud.
 
I wasn't able to make this past work day so spent Friday getting in some hours. I got most of the spray paint off a few of the rocks on Slab Pile (I ran out of cleaner so will need to do some touch up next time I'm able to get to them) and a total of six bags of bottles, cans and other assorted treasures by the end of the day... here's a representative sample:

A resolution for next year will be to be more diligent about wearing good gloves even when picking up trash, I only got a 1" slice in this particular instance but it could have ended up a lot worse:

Be safe everyone!!
