For Sale!
1 YARD of prime Red River dirt/sand/rock mixture.
sittin right out in front of my house, easy to load.
(most of which washed out from under the seat of my poor Brute Force after last weekend's ride)
Even my gas cans were coated in the stuff!
Found one rock in my skid plate 2" x 3".... I'm amazed the thing would even MOVE with all the earth it was hauling around.
I actually got an entire 1/2" of ground clearance more out of the Rhino after washing it.... that's how much freakin mud and sand was caked on/in/under it.
BTW, anybody who attended the ride should check their differentials, the front diff on my Brute was MILK.
Anybody interested in purchasing this valuable mix imported from the far northern regions of our beautiful state can contact me via p.m.

I wish there was an actual texture to it... it would probably be some awesome potting mix if it was consistent.
It varies anywhere from fine sand... to rocks 2" x 3"... some of it's mud, some of it's clay, some of it is just plain river rock.
More of a joke than anything, but I bet some beautiful grass grows out of that raised spot in the yard this year... LOL

I swear the only reason the dirt the back yard doesnt grow is from all the sand we bring home after riding. Almost have our own beach

If it wasn't for all the rocks mixed in, I'd probably put it in my flower beds... still can't believe the size of some of the rocks in my skid plates and frame voids.
LOL, my back diff was clean as could be... but my front was total milk.
Guess that's what happens when ya take a bike through a hole where the water comes up to your chest.

Yea, I did pull so major rocks of my ride. Could not believe that they had found their way were they were at with out tearing something up. Have not had a chance to check my diffs yet. But If I had to guess it was the 6' water hole that did you in.

ROFL... yeah I think I floated it about 20 ft. downstream before I found solid ground so y'all could get me out.
Still can't get over what a great time we had after that wild Friday night

Actually, the place we went to ride is on the Texas/Oklahoma border... we knew there were some storms up there but went anyways.
To be honest, if I hadn't gotten away and had a good time... the Tornados wouldn't have been the only thing tearing shit up.

No thanks, I'll prefer never to have lived then.
Seen em on TV, seen what they can do, would prefer to go through life and never encounter one.
Same goes for hurricanes, straight-line winds, dust storms, and p.m.s.
