8/23 "it's not the Jeep it's the driver" run
« on: August 25, 2009, 08:15:27 AM »
Here are the shots I took (Brian in the black CJ) from our run of mostly blue trails that Ken from NJAX was kind enough to lead us on.  The group shot I took turned out okay.  Rest are in the link below, including a couple of short videos.  I did not take many because we were too busy enjoying the great trails.

As is usual when I am out with fellow wheelers, I had a great time.  All the trucks did great and I am specially thankful that there was someone in front of me most of the day showing me what lines NOT to take!   :spank:

Hey Brian!
Thanks for posting those.  (You too, Jeff.)  Had a good time wheeling with you.  Best part was showing the young bucks in the Rubi's what old guys (ok, me anyway) in 30 yr old Jeeps could do!  :hilarious: :moon: :nana2:

Hey Brian, how are you going to do your Nascar pit crew routine if the bolts wont come loose.  I am confused.  You looked like you were having a grand ol time tightening bolts.

All I'd need is on board air and an impact gun for a real pit-stop!  The up side to having those darn bolt on thingies (that is what you yuppie jeepers call them, right?) is I got 18.3 mpg on the way home.   :banana_sml:  (It helped that all of my tires were properly inflated on the way home, thanks John!)
