UTV ride on Saturday was very fun again. 49 UTVs/ATVs.... there were 3 ATVs that stayed with us the whole ride.... Several ATVs showed up at the starting point and left as the light rain started. Damn it was chilly in a UTV with a windshield. It never poured, but was mainly a wet fog for a lot of the day. Our last stop was Old Mill in Urbank and from there many parties seperated and went in different directions. I took 7 other UTVs on a final leg to our farm and up to the lookout. The view wasnt great as the haze/drizzle was quite heavy. But very fun to get some more people up there to see what its all about. I love sharing the spot. I didnt take much for pics. I forgot to turn on my tracker on OnX maps until nearly half way through the ride. Crud. I had the only Yammie again. There was 1 Canam. Holy shit was that thing badass! 3 cylinder turbo. And the rest were Polaris. Amazing how many people have the fully enclosed cabs now. (Jealous on Saturday) I had 80 miles on my trip for Saturday. We left at noon sharp from Henning, and I got back to the cabin at 6pm just as the Kentucky Derby ended.

I have seen spares on UTV rides on state trails. Never any on local running around. I wouldnt carry it unless going on a ride on rough terrain. Such as Paul Bunyon state forest, Some very tight and rough trails in places up there as an example. Cut it on a rock going up a steep trail riddled with ruts and rocks to get up to the Snow Lakes. I was lucky I was able to limp down the hill to the min maint road and a highway was about a quarter mile away so I got it there where emergency pickup took place.

You run the same size tires all the way around?

27x9x12 front 27x11x12 back So you'd have to carry two spares then?
