Ride for Reid 2020 @ Adventure Off-Road (AOP)

Got back home Sunday afternoon and unloaded. Quick recap, but lots of rain on Friday made for hang out time in the back of the enclosed (not quite 6' of separation though) until 2am.

All of Friday's rain made some of the trails quite slick and others were wet but tacky. Saturday and most of Sunday turned out to be awesome weather. Was a pretty good turn out considering the weather.

First ride in the new-to-us rig turned out pretty good. Will need some major driver modifications and some minor changes here and there. But no issues with it throughout riding Saturday. Will post pictures later today.

^ I relaized on Saturday morning that the winch rope I spooled on Thursday evening wasn't routed through the fairlead under the front bumper. So I just left it for the day vs rerouting before riding. Will get that rerouted asap though.

Yes going on as planned

Thanks for the recommendation of Lawrence Glass in Murfreesboro to replace my back glass. :dblthumb: They got here two days before Safelite could and ended up being $75 bucks cheaper too. Glad to send my business to a small, local business. Will use them again in the future, but hopefully not for this same reason.
