That's my buddy stuck in the mud in the top picture. I was there on my KX 125 bike,and I rode his KFX for a while. There were 2 guys that helped us get it out. I think it was a Polaris that pulled him out. (sport quad). It took over an hour to free it. Broken grab bar on the back of it.

lol, i was there... we may not have helped you out but i remember passing you guys in the woods and seeing a grab bar hanging from handlebars or it could be another coincidence and that wasn't you, but nevertheless, people get stuck, people help people get unstuck, rinse and repeat is the jist of deepwater

Oh yeah, good ole Deepwater.....LOL

hey i went to deepwater on feb. 13 with my honda 350es and big 30" maxxis zillas and managed to get stuck fully and then my av wouldnt shift. $900 later my atv has 2 new clutches and angle sensor. it was fun though.

They don't call it deepwater for nothing. Some of the holes will eat about any wheeler.

Rickey's wife Melissa here.
We went to Deepwater last Sunday. Did ya'll mention it was muddy ?? LOL, it was great, though. Not so bad as we thought, most of the puddles were ride-able, even the big ones. The bottoms aren't too ate up, like they get later in the year, the ground is still pretty firm under the water. Rickey did find one really good hole that sunk him sideways almost. He also kept high-centering on his Raptor on the south side by the fishing lake. I think our son got stuck once, too. We have some pics our friend took, have to figure out how to post them here. Nice to do the dragstrip without the dust. Water was up some, couldn't get everywhere around the lake shore, but we don't try to go into Truman Lake itself either, don't want to get in trouble there. Some may have been able to. Everything got good and muddy, some of it still is. Still have pebbles in my washer, but they are clean pebbles.
No stucks for my quad, but my Grizzly 660 decided not to go into gear without some serious fights, and kept getting worse, and since it's the one with the tow rope and winch, I kind of need reverse. Finally gave up and put it back on the trailer, after a good ride and some hot cocoa and sandwiches. Not too many people out there, but ran into 3 guys covered in mud washing quads at the car wash in Clinton. Told them about this site. They are from Peculiar. Hope they show up here sometime!

Mel, sounds like you guys had fun, can't wait to see the pics.

Definately sounds like a great time!

Okay, can't get more than one pic at a time, but here's one of us unhooking after getting Rickey out of his stuck. That is posted elsewhere, I'll try to get more than one, still learning. (The tutorial was great, though!)
Smiles,
Mel

OH, and we are going to try to get a ride in Sunday, before I have shoulder surgery. See if I can't make the ortho earn his money!

more:

and one more: (can't do more than one per post! What's the trick?)



Goodnight, Yall
Happy Trails!

After you post a picture, just click on Upload again, then browes, then copy and paste like before, make sure you arrow right and enter to begin on a new line before pasting the next picture. So they won't be on top of each other. I hope this helps.

Nice Job Rick, it's always great to see how members help one another too...

Nice pics too Mel!
