Pictures from RC on 3/22

Went up on Friday (first time - woohoo!) with a bunch of non-DEJA members.

This was on one of the blacks near Rock Creek, not sure what trail we were on. Still trying to figure out exactly what happened. Think the thermostat clogged in the gunk and then I was started running really hot. Redlined everything and couldn't even open the hood. That happened right as I was trying to make the hill climb along the power lines. ATF (yeah, it's an auto) got so hot it boiled over the dipstick, left a nice blood trail along the hill =]. Had to get pulled up the hill and back to the entrance by one of the other guys. Let it cool for a while and I was able to limp home but I think my transmission is shot. Put some fresh ATF in to make up for what was lost and I was able to limp home but it's about toast. Knew I needed a new tranny eventually anyways but this killed it.

Looks like I missed another good ride. Great pics!

Thanks for the pics. Next time I'll try to remember my camera. Great ride though!
