Lynch-Off Road Trail ride & Open House
 
1 Attachment(s)
Went to Lynch Hummer's open house and trail ride this morning and had a blast! It's not Moab, but I'm a novice compared to most of you guys and gals.

The trail was actually more challenging than I expected, kept the locker on about 90% of the time. The Missouri river runs behind their property and they own a lot of acreage. Of course I couldn't get any pics of the fun stuff, only had a chance to snap pics when we stopped for people to catch up. Had a mix of H1's, H2's, and H3's. had a few H3's without lockers and some of them had to make a couple of runs to get up a muddy incline (actually one of the H1's had too also[didn't have MT's]).

Came away very impressed with my H3's capabilities. There were spots I never would have attempted if I hadn't seen the guy in front of me make it!

Only casualty was my front license plate and frame. One of the Lynch crew on an ATV picked it up for me and had new hardware for me to reattach it before I made it to the buffet line (catered by Chevy's Tex-Mex)

I think the license plate is always the first thing to go. I went to Reno for a dealer sponsored event, the first obstacle was a twist ditch and most of us bent our rear license plate getting through it.

Glad you had fun!

I was at the Lynch event this past weekend too. I went on the morning run. It was much better than it was last year. Last year it had rained the 3 days leading up to the event and the mud was horrible. It took over 2 hours to get through 1/4 of the trails. This year the entire run took almost 2 hours.
Yeah, a lot of people had trouble with "Highside Hill". The problems was that you went through a mud pit then right up a very steep hill. You had to just gun it.
It was a great time. I got a couple pics of the twist ditch at the end. This is not me in the pic.
Sorry, the pic is from a cell phone.
