Default Rubiconocalypse Jan 2nd 2015

So we decided to do a "speed run" of the rubicon January second this year. I posted an extensive tail of the woe we experienced on the other forum including list of the highlights regarding injuries and breakages.

Here's a little video of the lowlights of day one.

CAUTION. Lots of swearing.



It's all justified.

Not sure if I missed it or just didn't recognize it but how was it going up Cadillac Hill seeing how you guys were sliding all over the place going down Big Sluice?

Cadillac hill wasn't too bad thankfully. Some icy patches but not a solid sheet like big sluice. One or two places that needed a run up and lots of throttle. The off camber squeeze past the boulder being the worst. That's where I dented the grab handles.
