Home from my day with the boys at Holopawlooza. Had a great time, wish I could have spent more time there, but only one day was in the cards for me this year, Better planning and better finances will create more Bronco time.
Was great to finally meet Franko, I really need to hang out with him and Bax a little more, What a hoot those two are.
Not going to name them all because it was all who made it a great day.

Will have a First trail report in a separate thread, But to sum it up, there was good, and there was bad, But the bad was solved with the BROTHERHOOD!

I had some fun. It was good to see see old and new faces. Always a good time and a fun local event. Weather during the day was very nice, you could stay warn in the sun. I showed up early Sat morning and unloader the toys and got ready to go. We sat around talking and then the drivers meeting. We went to get pictures taken and then we were going to blast back to camp and get the 4 wheelers I had brought, and tag along that way. Well one of the 4 wheelers fuel pump went out and we ended up taking the other two and the bronco out on the trails. We caught up to everyone when Revelations radiator got killed. My kids had a blast on the 4 wheelers all day. I got the pretty truck all dirty but the truck never had any issues and it pulled thru most of the spots in 2 wd. Love that twin stick. Got back to camp, ate, watched Franko fix / replace a blown hub. Franko made some really nice shirts for the event. Thanks Franko. I gave away some parts to friends and then loaded up the 4 wheelers said goodbye and went home. I wanted to stay for the campfire and the night run but plan was for me to stay and the kids to drive the bronco home. But since we wheeled the bronco I was uneasy about letting my girls go home in it without an escort home. Some things are a little more important than others. We had no problems on the way home and even got a pre wash in on the bronco. I am sure the guys and ladies had fun last night either around the camp fire or out in the woods playing. However it was getting into the 40 degree range and they all had to deal with that. Being in the mud at 1 am in the cold being wet is a great time. Sorry I missed it but I was home , all clean and in a warm bed.
It was a fun time. I need to build me something to go play with. Thanks everyone .

Great pics guys, looks like a lot of fun. Maybe we'll make it down there one of these days.

Bax, you really should make one to play with. It's a lot more fun using them than polishing them!! Then you can bring it to OCBR next year....better get busy!

 

[Ethansdad73]

I too want to say thank you for thoes involved, franko, mark, chris and others. Ethan and I had a blast. Being from WA the only wheeling that i had done was fire trails in the mountains. nothing you cant do with 2wheel drive and definatly no deep water and mud. My parents thought that i would break, my ex was worried about the little one, didnt break and Ethan was a champ, and even took a nap. The bronco ran like a top, and ill say a quick thank you to Rob D. as with out him fixing my ft drive shaft and helping make sure the bronco was ready I would not have made it. I was really suprised to see how well my bronco did most every one had some sort of lift, body or suspension and tires. I wheeled all day with 30% tread on my 31 inch tires and stock suspension and no body lift. I got so deep at one point i had water in the cab... doing that lead to a few people yelling your leaking fuel... nope just water. But as it turns out i am leaking gas had a little drip drip under the bronco. But all in all Ethan and I had a blast, next year I will be lifted and hopefull have better tires, cant wait.
