Must be nice it is still really wet & muddy here South of Lake
Ontario... My club had our second Mud Bog & Trail Ride event last
weekend, we had to shut down the "Stock" trail after the second group
because even my Jeep on 32's got stuck, and this was on a bypass trail
we cut to go around another bad spot. First time through, we had stock
Grand Cherokee's which made it.
