Uwharrie OHV Opening 2016
Thats too bad about Dickey Bell. Friday was a great day for Wheeling. We did Dickey early in the morning. The conditions on Friday were so muddy and it being a workday made it perfect for avoiding the Mall crawlers trying to take their stock rig up trails. On Dickey I had a hard smack to the skid I went on the left where the rocks are bigger. I'm all about the harder line.
We arrived at falls dam trailhead friday morn there was hardly anyone their. By noon the parking lot was full. I run dickeybell friday and Saturday stayed to the left the whole way up no problem, muddy but fun. Saturday I'm not sure but their could have easily been 1500 people. The whole day was nothing but a hassle large groups everywhere everytime you hit the next break there was another 10 or 20 in the way. There has too be a better way their was 2 times saturday we waited over an hour for someone to get their piece of shit out of the way. Then they wanted to know what the problem was. Let's keep moving people damn. Then you had big groups a 4 wheelers as sxs's tearing down the trail trying to pass you getting nowhere because traffic was stopped. You also had the jeep guys out there that the only thing they knew about a jeep was it was a jeep. It was a big let down I'm not sure where all the bad crowd has come from but there was not many people there that knew trail etiquette. I'm going to wait a month or so before I go back hopefully things will be settled down by then. Work to hard to waist off time dealing with a bunch of pricks.
Bout to give up wheeling in that will just do overland. But, same problem! No where to go around here, or just to crowded, no trespassing, etc! Start putting my money back into guns and suppressor!
I know Friday Afternoon is when the Mall Crawlers started trickling in.... My new Friend with the LS1 in his Jeep had to Pull a Stock Sport on Radial tires up Rocky Mtn Loop and this was late in the afternoon when all the slop had dried up considerably. On Saturday it was a parking lot because of the rain making Easy trails like Wolf Den into Moderate trails. It was more like Mud Crawling instead of Trail Riding on those.
We got to the top of Daniel Friday morning and because of it being wet it was way harder this time.

Speaking my language dude. Used to work at Point Blank Range in Matthews when it opened. Last purchase was going to be a OSPREY Silencer from Silencerco. Quit before I snatched it up. Went to the orientation today for The CR-PC. Going to start building the arsenal again.
Hit a tree yesterday that I thought I missed. Got a scratch on the top of the rear passenger door im kind of bummed about. Gonna buff it out and match the paint. Nobody to blame but me still bummed.
I also hit a tree with my driver rear fender. No damage just a brown scuff on my tube fenders. I'll touch it up with some truck bed-liner this week when I get the chance to replace the tire carrier with a new one.
I heard you Tore your fender off? Were you able to snap it back on?
Imagine if the weather was nicer. It would have been a Full-Blown 3 Ring Circus out there. But also if it was dry maybe there would have been less hold ups on the trails. I ran at 18 psi I did not want to loose a bead half way through Daniel.
I belive that we should all add to our arsenal right now. No telling how this shit show if sn election will turn out.
Yeah it was a slippery mess out there Yesterday even the hardcore guys were saying it was a mess. At one point on Rocky mountain loop I was almost sideways going down the trail.
