Southern California recovery clinic and trail report 2008
A few of us went to the Socal recovery clinic held on by the FJ guys. A great time with some very useful instruction..

Most were taken by my co-pilot Tony:

After the great instruction, and getting finished with lunch, a couple of us decided to go down "Indian Truck Trail" to end the day.

Bye FJ!

Wow, great pictures Richard! I'll have to show my girlfriend as she was having a hard time visualizing what I was trying to explain.

And thanks for getting my fat side in that winch photo.... ;) That stupid winch was a pain in the ass.

They said "The picture adds 10 lbs". It added 50 lbs on me.

Patrick, gotta say you really did well today.

LOL, while watching you mess with that winch I got bored and hungry and went to go eat my sandwich. I came back and you were still fuddling with that winch.

Well a few more for us T4R guys..

TBoliv's ride


Net4n6's ride


The trail was so bumpy Tony got fed up of trying to be steady with pics. He stuck his hand behind him and just starting clicking away blindly. Not too bad!

Can't see crap!

Break time


More of happy trailing.







Final stop before heading home.
