The week in MN was awesome. The wheeling was great and the Iron Range is top notch, I think we all agreed that it is better than Disney OK and RORP for sure. I did not get to take my jeep but I trailered a friend who had never been there and rode with him. We spent a lot of time in the gorge with a lot of damage. One guy cut 3 sidewalls in a 10 foot section of rock, needless to say I will never run any tire by BFG. The Iroks, TSL's. and Boggers did great on the trails and in the rocks. You really need a 38"+ tire to do the cool stuff and my friend with 35" boggers was hung up a lot.
One bit of advice, when in Gilbert MN NEVER EVER go to the Gladiator for a few beers. You will leave with pubic lice in your nose hairs. Seriously.
So now that I am home and settled in I went back to work on the truck last night. I now have the rear hoop and front down tubes finished and can concentrate on bracing and the tube bed. I hope to get a majority of the tube work done this week now that the hard part is over.
