Well. Started the day off really nice...
Wolflover, Myself, and my two girls, my cousin and his wife. Headed to the play area at Paragon to just spin around a little, ended up being asked to pull a "two-wheeler" out of the mud :rider: . This stuff was so thick, took us nearly 1 & 1/2 hours to move the bike 30 feet. Went and had lunch, then headed to the mine shaft. Mind you, my little ones have a 50cc and a 70cc sports, maybe an inch/inch1/2 ground clearance, took the logging roads over, no problems. Then it happened... We had asked if Turtle was passable with the two little ones, someone in the office said we should have no problems. So we decided to head back that way, figured we could stop at the play area, then head out at 6. That was at 4. GPS said right around a mile to get to the checkin area... Plenty of time. Started heading "UP" turtle, and found out why they call it "UP". First little stretch wasn't too bad, the 50 handled it without any problems, except she ran over her dad going up the hill.. My right foot/heel still hurt a little. The 70 was chugging a little slower. Then, out of now where.... Nothing but boulders and washouts...
. We ended up towing the two little ones up the hill. Mind you, they wouldn't ride them, so we really dragged the quads up the hill while they walked. After numerous times flipping the poor things upside down and on their sides, we made it to the top.... 5:50.... OH KNOW! Not gonna make it. The two quads are a mess... the 70cc(mind you this was it's maiden voyage at paragon) is all busted up.. plastic is cracked all over. Meanwhile, on the way up. Wolflovers and my machine overheated... What else would you expect...
Long story I know.... We made it out at about 6:10 nothing was said, but we got some looks.... I guess having the little ones helps.. especially when they see her struggling to get across the parking lot.
I know there is more to tell... but I am out of breath!
Hopefully I'll be able to really take a look at the littleones next week to see the extent of the damage.
TTFN...
