Took a trip to Moab this past weekend, it was more for the river rafting than for the trails, but we hit a few before heading home. We only had about an hour, so I could only do so much. It was me and two buddies with Jeepers. I'll be making another trip here in the next few months. :icon_thumby:

I wish I could have done some rafting when I was out there. What trails did you run?

Thanks!

We only did potato salad, little lions back and fins n things. We were really short on time.

And no, those are not girl pants, I just have bigger thighs than most people. :thefinger:

Freeweight? Max, or for reps?
I really wanted to do fins and things but I also ran out of time. Id like to get back out that way by the end of the summer, Hopefully I can drag some other TRS members with for some wheeling. Your front end looks to have pretty good flex with those homemade arms. I (finally) started the brackets for mine this weekend. Pretty stout design, they should hold up to lots of abuse.:icon_bounceblue:

Freeweight, last time I tried I got it for 2 reps, so I imagine my max would be a titch higher.

And Yeah, it seems to flex pretty well, the droop was limited by the shock length, and the stuff was limited by the super lift coils, too stiff!

I'd like to see your arms once you get them built up!

When you go, let me know, I am only 3 hours away from Moab.
