  1. Wonderful photos! Makes me wanna to check out the area only via a little more sedate route☺️. Glad you’re home with no serious damage..
  2. American Adventure said for them to design and build a custom tray. Could cost $300. They suggested a battery tray / mount from Amazon. I found one that fit for $19 See attached below
  3. Ryan Really need of a mount for my Jackery 300 that sits behind the Fridge. Use it to kick in when I shut off the engine. Currently I use a bunch of straps. This appears to be a superior solution. How can I get one? thx Mick
  4. We stayed lucky on this second ride too. Perfect weather, happy crew and complete absence of mishaps. A good mix of seven interesting rigs and nine highly sociable folks. 2 ladies, 7 dudes and 2 friendly pups. Good breakfast at the Horseshoe cafe, outstanding views from Belmont Mine and Vulture Arch. We had a chance to get out and stretch our legs. This ride went exactly as we hope an easy ride will. I’d ride with this gang again anytime!”
  5. These are great Bobby. Thanks for coming along. I’ll include into the trip report.
  6. He did real good. He said that his tires were spinning up the bank but he made it. Woody was back there looking after him. He could give you more detail.
  7. The second installment of the same ride is on Saturday, December 13. Can you keep the posting up until then so folks can refer to it I doubt if any imprinted it out thanks,
  8. This Saturday, December 6th seven rigs and 11 folks ran the breakfast run from Wickenburg to Belmont mine and then back through the Vulture Mountains to the Hassaympa river basin near Gates Road. The wait staff at the Horseshoe Cafe were fast and delightful. It was It was a perfect fall day and the ride was completed with absolutely no drama. There were several new people and they all seem to enjoy the ride too. All in all a really happy group. The trail had eroded some since last year when we did it, but everyone got through it, including a Subaru that surprised us all. ’Way to go Claudio!” We had an interesting make up of vehicles that included some older Jeeps, a Subaru, a beautifully equipped overland Chevy tuck, fully modified JL‘s, Toyota, Land Cruiser and the star of the ride; Liz’s shiny new Rubicon. It’s a spectacular new color! We couldn’t decide what to call it, but I’ll post a picture. As usual we ended up at the Vulture Arch for the terrific views while munching on the traditional ice cream. Thanks to everyone for attending and being patient while we got everyone parked up there. Mick
