I quit riding around 4 years ago. Everything local closed. (Nearest is 3.5 hrs.) Guess it happened as my interest was starting to wane.
Most all of the group I rode with have sold their rigs. I Sold my big Yellow Jeep three years ago to a friend. Then I built a 3" lift on 33s XJ for my Granddaughter, She and I have been riding with him, mostly at Uwharrie. Granddaughter drives and I spot (and panic) from the right seat.
I do miss the hardcore off-roading with our group. Those trips were some of the best times I've ever had. I do have a small streetable TJ and an LS I've been trying to decide to build. Its been hard for me to get motivated again, when I look around here and it seems off-roading is becoming "frowny face" grills and rubber ducks!
Or... I'm 67 and I might just be getting tired!
