For the activities today we heading into Lead and did a half-day rental of ATVs so we could ride around the National Forest and surrounding area. Kristen didn't have a lot of luck with her rides since the one she chose coked out about a half-mile from the rental place and the replacement later failing when we were several miles away, but fortunately in a position where I could tow back. While exploring we found a small quarry and definitely took advantage of some of the hills and mud pits, not that anyone wanted to return a clean machine anyway.After mudding for a while, we headed up to Custer Peak to take in the view, and grab a geocache while it was nearby.
I used to have an ATV way back in the days of riding in South Carolina on some family property, however it had been a long time since my last ride and I had a great time. It was a lot of fun to jsut be able to open up the throttle to catch some air after ripping up a large hill. We were all quite dirty and tired at the end, but very satisfied. after getting cleaned up at the house we hit the town for a family dinner before browsing a while, dropping a few dollars in a local casino, and then heading back to the house.
