Glad we are adding some more jeeps to the Batesville Jeepers. I would be up for some ridin if we could find a place to go around here. I don't remeber the dates for the hot springs event, but I looked into it and I think I have a conflict and would not be able to go. I hope some of you go so we can get a report on what its like.

Default Jeep Club?

Damon....Lackey said he talked to you about a possible Jeep club. I told Phil the same thing. We could all get together every couple months maybe at the least. Do you have a conflict with the Eureka Springs weekend?

Jason A here...


I sent Damon a PM about Jeep Jamboree in Hot Springs. It's Oct 22-24. I would really like to go so if you guys have any interest...let me know!

I told Damon I really don't know any Batesville guys on here and would like to get together and go for a cruise. I am available just about any time!

I am the Silver 4dr jeep with 37's.

I'm game with a jeep club...

Best investment yet...

TOW STRAP. I frequent the sandbar with my tow strap and charge between $20 and $50 depending on attitude and desperateness. I don't charge friends or fellow jeepers. (jeepers don't get stuck down there).

People would rather pay and get it over with than paying over $100 and waiting on tow truck.

funny! I have an ARB snatch strap that's pretty nice but haven't had an opportunity to use it yet. Hopefully I won't be the first to need it. I also haven't made it to the sandbar yet because everytime I head toward the river it's up too high. Can you go very far down?

Not right now...When it's down, it's alright to go down and hang out with friends. Drink a few "sodas." Watch some probably too young girls in bikini's isn't bad either... But there isn't a whole lot to do down there jeepin' wise.

Actually, my favorite is when CJ Robey gets her H3 stuck in the sand and I cruise over in my Rubi to offer help, which is actually rejected due to the fact that she knows how much Hummers suck. Come to think of it, I might taunt a little...okay a lot.

If you ever want to play in the mud, I know a pretty good place over on Miller Creek Rd... I am going to assume you don't know where it is just in case...

Take a right at Wyatts on the curvy road off of St. Louis.

Before the bridge on the right is a gravel road. Take that road.

Follow the road and after the bridge and right turn, look to the right and back in there by the Creek are several muddy trails that are kinda fun and challenging. (some holes are really deep!)

Call me if you want to ride out there...I enjoy getting the Jeep muddy!

I've been wheeling with Rusty & CJ several times up on Jamestown Mtn. and up in Sylamore Forest last year. That was when Rusty had his white TJ and I had my green TJ. I have some pics of all of us on my Facebook acct. And yeah, that Hummer is a mall crawler! CJ said they may get another Jeep when fall hits. I have been under the trestle down in the area you are talking about and used to take the trail up to the Sawmill subdivision and out by Lackey's house, which is close to Rusty and CJ. It's kinda neat if you haven't been down/up it. Just hate to trash my paint on a new Jeep.

Oh.... and I would NEVER charge CJ for a tow!

Hey I would love to go to Hot springs, but they always schedule in the fall during hunting season. I reserve oct thru jan for hunting. sorry but once oct gets here if im not hunting im probably at a razorback game that doesnt leave much time for jeepin or work. Jeep ridin is more of a spring and summer hobby for me. I have been trying to get Phil to start a jeep club and I think he will do it with a little pressure from all of us.
