Comments from Roy

I can definitely say that Trough Trail is one of the knarliest trails I've ever run, and the Trough Your Rocker spur, could easily be nicknamed "Dis Your Diff".  The trail is full of diff-getters, and proved challenging for us all.  With most of us on 35's, and Kevin doing a standup job running 33's, it still kinda beat us up a bit.  I sheared both air fittings off my rear shocks, crushing one a bit, re-damaged my right rear corner, totally tore my CB antenna off, and bent the center body mount under the right rocker.  Oh yeah, my Kilby also starting making noise by the time we were aired up.  So... what is that, like $1 to the quarter jug.  All-in-all, definitely worth the drive to run this trail.

These first sets of pics are frame shots from video taken on my camera.  I just captured a bunch of the best flex shots.  We hope to get media from other cameras and a bunch of video soon.  Roy

 These are the last of the frame shots I have.  We stopped taking video after one battery, and after Tom blew his left front bead, which we were able to air back up with his onboard air without too much trouble.  The last five shots are on Trough Your Rocker.
