sorry to hear about your luck mudhellya, but there will always be a next time so don't worry about it! Now that I'm finally home I just wanted to thank Garry and Kim and everyone else that joined us to make the weekend a ton of fun! It was a great experience riding the terrain and seeing the work put into it by the Edson ATV club to make the area so ATV friendly! I look forward to going back out there at least one more time this year and many times in the seasons to follow.

As for the damage at the end of the day, I'd say the mountains took a toll on the S&M/Outlaw pocketbooks... Busted A-Arm, belt, bumper, headlight, wheel... etc... did anyone actually come out of the weekend without any sort of damage? I managed to get a flat tire on the way home... luckily I was 5 minutes from home so it wasn't as bad as it could have been.

Pics will follow tomorrow...

The reason mine was louder and LOUDER was the screws for the end cap came out (too much bouncing with the snorkel). I couldnt see it because of the sand box in my eyes. Otherwise GREAT rides!! Thanks Garryese and Kim for the history lessons as well. Now Ill have to go back up to see everything I missed the first time.

Thanks to Gary & Kim for hosting the ride and helping us out. We enjoyed it and will be back next year if you go again. I'am already working on some others to come out and enjoy the area and fellowship.

I also would like to thank Gary and Kim to have us all take along with them on this weekend. I will be back for sure. It was nice to see so many groups there also on this ride. Edson ATV club members as well as the Outlaw ATV club members all attended and it was nice that we could all share in the beauty of this area.
The Edson ATV club has done a large amount of trail work on the South Esk trail and I enjoyed the history lesson from Gary. You volunteers keep up the good work in keeping this area open for Atving we all appreciate it very much.
Weather was great and we had some fun times and THANK YOU to eneryone who helped straighten up my quad when it decided it was time for a suspension check on that downhill run.

Burney stop over earlier this evening. He found an ATV seat on the road on his way home from Ruby Falls. He spoke with Kim, so I have no details on the seat. If you lost your seat, let me know and I'll get you in contact with Burney.
