Went down to Old Chinaman's Gulch today. First trip for the Chalupa in a while and it kicked some major ass! And SOMEHOW it was the only one that didn't get some kind of damage, even though Corey gave it bat-wings in the middle of the trail cuz the rear tires were rubbing. I snapped my left rear shock in two at Whale Rock. Cristi bent her steering. Scott had some problems with CA brackets. And Tom thorougly annihilated his D30. Cristi and I got owned by Whale Rock and had to get strapped up, which SUCKED because we both made it just fine back in May. Anyways, on to the pics!
Chalupa!!!!

Cristi came close too, and might have been able to make it, but was getting pretty close to too tippy!!

Dave, do you have your other pics of yesterday up somewhere? I'm curious if you got any good pics of the exit to Carnage Gulch?
BTW, It was a good maiden voyage for the Chalupa! Tom jinxed you guys by suggesting she'd break!! Shows him!!
Corey
I didn't get any pics of Carnage, Scott did though. I need to get the full res versions of a couple of those pics of the Chalupa up for ya if you want them.
Hey, that's not quite what I said. I said something to the effect of "If you're going to do Carnage Canyon, you might as well do it at the beginning of the day so we have all day to recover. You didn't do Carnage, so my statement didn't really apply!Originally Posted by JpRngr
It was a fun day and I really don't know how I broke so much stuff!!! Old age of the ZJ's stock components I'm thinking.
Tom.
Fitting. I was in China when you were in Chinaman's Gulch.
Looks like a fun day, sorry I missed it.
John....Are you back? We're doing 21 Road in Junction on Sat.
Corey
Nice bump Z......that little skinny pedal goes all the way to the floor for a reason...................................lol
Yeah it does, but I understand him not doing it. He snapped that 30 shaft earlier and for some reason or another ended up not getting ANY power to the wheels up front shortly after that video clip was taken. Had to tug him off of there, but yeah, to make that he needed a MUCH bigger bump!
Yeah I'm back. This Sat Sept 4th? Who is going?
Yep. We will be heading up Friday night, camp at the trail head, and run the trail when we are ready Sat. Not sure who all is going. Us, my buddy Andrew, and I think Dave is going to ride with one of us. Call me if you're interested.
Corey
Let me see what's cooking this weekend and get back to you. Thanks for the invite. I would meet you at the trailhead, not too early I hope.
Forgot to post my pics over here too. http://www.imagestation.com/album/pi...?id=4088840093
