March Ride

[Sugarphreak]

Was a pretty good day; we learned that we have been taking the "easy" bypass around one of the hills we hit right off the bat and of course we got both HUMMERS stuck simultaneously while tackling some shelves to the utter delight of the Toyota club. As an added bonus Dave & I both conquered the "superhill" at the pit on the extreme far right... was actually kind of easy <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... e_wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



I got to try out my new CB Antenna and it looks like it is a total hit; I easily out-ranged the other two CB radios there and I am blown away by how well it works now... actually I kept picking up a guy from Texas <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... /blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />



Dave also got to try out his Locker & High Range Bypass, I'd call it a success!



We were heading out to the falls & stopped at 4-corners for lunch; the CT4WD club brings out girls to cook and heat food up for everybody <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' /> (Err... although sadly it turned out to be Grills & not girls)



Unfortunately Daves cold started catching up with him and we decided to split from the CT4WD club and head back early. We goofed around in the gravel pit a bit and then got out around 3:30.



Anyway, I didn't get too many pics; but here are the highlights.























The rest of them can be viewed here... they uploaded in reverse order, that is Dave conquering the hill, not reversing down it <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... oflmao.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rotflmao:' />

Hope you are feeling better Dave!

Had a blast as always - dissapointed in myself though as I thought I was on the "getting better" side of things - man I zonked out for hours after I got home and still feel like crap - I think it will be a lounge around the bed day tomorrow.



Those pictures were hillarious as it did look like I was reversing! That's the first I tried the right side and it was a breeze! No speed, just crawled up!.



Make sure everyone looks at those pictures first and then watch Nick's video which i will paste below! The pictures show a better perspective of how steep that side of the hill is. The video doesn;t do it justice at all until you watch his @ss go over the top and then you can feel the steepness as he levels out!

Had a blast..... but it wasn't the Hummer Club.......

Much better commentary on this video Dave, lol



I definitely got a little worried when I could feel the earth tumbling away at my wheels going up. Dave's run actually looked pretty solid with very little rocks being spit out, I think the tire pressure you were running for this run is probably perfect for your H2.

Looks like fun! I am surprised at how much snow has melted!



And April run will be with the whole crew again!!!

[Khamul]

So.... should be pick a date in April now - or do we wanna wait?

[Sugarphreak]

Would be nice to try and get everybody together for a run

[JL]

I think we should start planning for April! But I don't want to plan this one though since the only run I ever planned my car also exploded!!

Awww.... Like my differential carriage bolt..... that was a total fluke and a total defect in manufacturing in my opinion!

Just Easter for me won;t be good....
