Sorry I had to bail out so early, After Paul winched me up the LAST 3 FEET, of the coal mound my belt was slipping and sounded like s@#$, so Dan and I cruised arounf for about an hour afterwards, but something wasn't right ,, so next time I'll have a new belt , clutch, ball joints and ready for a full day, how far was the excavator from where we were parked? and did Josh or Chad flip if it was Chad did you get a pic of Josh's face I'd love to see that .....Thanks for the invite , cool group of guys to ride with, I'll try to post some pic If I can figure it out....

Mikey,

Thanks for the great pics!!!!!

I wish there was a photo of all of our faces when he went over. He did a few jumps before that one everytime coming down nose heavy. We all knew he wasn't blipping the throttle over the lip. When he was making that last approach as fast as he was we all sort of got quiet as he flew up the jump face.... We knew what was coming...

as soon as he landed and drove off we knew he was fine everyone loudly shared their excitement in the moment.

Pilot was fine, Chad was fine, I'm happy

Josh

That was a great run guys, I had a blast!!

The Flip!, the Other Waterfalls, Connie, beer & burgers @ the 901, a bunch of fun play pits, a few choice hillclimbs, almost losing it on the hill, Wal Mart, the Marion 7800, 50 miles in a day, start early, finish at dusk, burned couple of tanks of fuel, hard to believe it all happened in one day.

AND I can't believe Mike snapped that photo of the flip, WTG Mikey!, let alone that it even happen with all of us watching.

Looks like a great great run.... when's the next? Let's pick a weekend in December. How about either Sunday Dec 11 or Sunday Dec 18th (could probably do the 4th as well)??

Who's in?

The 4th is middle of deer hunting which means more hunters and DNR in woods and 18th is the week before Christmas so looks like Dec. 11th would be the best bet, unless there is a conflict with someone?

PA Reride
Dec. 11th
