Can a stock cruiser handle that trail?

I'm sure there are different levels of trails for different levels of rigs.

In THIS thread there is a link to the FJC Magazine, in the current issue (July '08) there is a shoot-out between some skid makers.

So is this weekend event going to be at Cline? or ???

Just digging around and found that it's capt.rick who is making them and he has a website.

I would say yes, as long as you have 4X4 and hopefully some decent tires. Some spots you might wanna take the round-about path and some you may want to avoid all together. I wasn't able to do a few of the trails, but I at least tried all the ones that looked doable. Some will pretty much require a locker or winch to finish, others you will be able to do just based on your size whereas i would be too long and wide.

1) Yes, they're sure are.

2) Cline's is great, they eve have been working on blazing some new trails. I would do it again but, personal preference here, would like to hit up a new spot for me, like Boulder. Plus, like I said, a group from TX4WD is going to be at Boulder anyways so we would have a for sure trail leader/guide.

Ok, so Boulder Creek located HERE?

[TXterra37]

Yep, that's the spot. Does this location seem "fair" to everyone as far as distance? It is ~2 hours away for me here in San Antonio. Granted Cline's is only like 30 minutes (why am I not pushing for this spot?!) and would save me some nice $$$ on gas. I have heard all good things about Boulder and would love to try some place new.

Just FYI for the H-Town guys we would be looking at about 4 hours drive time and 215+ miles.

[TXterra37]

Yeah, that sounds about right as to how long/distance it was from here to Gen. Sam's. Maybe just a little shorter.

I am in for Boulder Creek. I should be back from the summit on friday night because I have a race on saturday morning, so I would be hitting out there on saturday night to wheel on sunday
