COMPLETED: Green Ridge MD - Jan 3 2011

[Trail X]

Thinking about taking a trip down to Green Ridge for a leisurely off-road trip on Monday, Jan 3rd. Anyone interested?

The trails are rated mostly 2... If it snows, it will be more difficult.

The last time I really explored the area, the truck was basically stock and it did ok - just was a bit slow:



Here's a map - we'll take mainly the yellow ORV trail:

[Trail X]

Ok Ezzyk, but only if you get rid of the pink window banner.

[dirty anton]

keep me posted james im down!! sounds good!

[Trail X]

Great! I'm thinking about leaving Baltimore around 8-8:30ish.

Takes a little under two hours to get to the exit off 68.

hey, this is joes wife and i like my pink banner lol

[The Roadie]

Pink banners attract trail damage. Be careful what you wish for!

[rgraboske]

That's not as far from here as I would have expected. If only the 3rd wasn't my first day back to work after taking over 2 weeks of vacation

[bigezzyk]

well yea, you guys are all jealous and want one too so you get distracted by it lol (still joes wife haha)

Wives who find their hubby's account and forum threads sometimes create epic threads.

i guess i forgot to log off and the wife was snooping

[dirty anton]

drop my daughter at school in millersville at 8:30am. so i will be right behind you.

[bigezzyk]

what time and where are we going to meet

[bigezzyk]

im good to go the wife has off that day

[Trail X]

Still trying to figure that day out - I may have to stay home and get elbow deep in the truck... it died on me yesterday for no apparent reason.

[dirty anton]

oh crap, sorry to hear that james! let us know.

[Trail X]

Alright had some time today and replaced a coil pack that was giving me problems, cleaned the throttle body, and finally changed out my old Z71 shocks for some BDS ones. She seems to be running like a champ now.

So unless the truck really begins to struggle during my (road) trip this weekend, this trip is on.

I'm planning on meeting John (02tahoeMD) at the I-70 park and ride at 0830 and leaving from there.

It will take approx 2 hours to get to exit 62 on I-68. That will be the next meeting spot - at approx 1030.

If this doesn't sound good, and it needs modifications, please let me know and we can attempt to adjust accordingly.

We'll be on CB channel 1.

I imagine we'll run till 4 or 5 at the latest.

D.Anton, can you PM me your cell number? I have the other guy's contacts already.

Should be a good way to ring in the new year.

[bigezzyk]

sounds good to me

Just a reminder to bring a lunch. We'll eat on the trail.
