Big Mike took me and 14 others on a tour around Royal Blue Saturday. We pulled out of RRB around 9:30. Up T27 we went. Before reaching T19 we had one flat and one stuck parking brake cable. Stopping at the top, both were repaired. We traveled about 300 feet and a Sportsman broke a left rear 2" lift bracket. Never have I seen this on the trail. We flipped him over and removed the lift. Off again..........well almost, we had one that would not start. After beating and banging, it decided to start but remained to be a problem for miles to come. We headed up towards the Elk Viewing tower and turned right and up to Town Rock. Very dusty going and coming as we had to back track. From there we hit a few trails that lead us down to the swimming hole then off to Creek Side Market for a late lunch. At the marked Big Mikes starter decided to give up. I hooked to him and towed him back to the trucks. Everyone else decided to make the 11 mile asphalt trip as well. Long hot day. We arrived back at RRB ~5:30.
