I am new to buggy riding, I always rode dirt bikes but this weekend was my first weekend out and I went to D&K and I had a blast even though I broke a lot and went over the mountain backwards 3 times after having brake problems. My wife was scared to death and I was a time or two but now I know what I have to fix and we will both be back again. I thought she would never go back but she swears if I fix things right she will. That was the funnest thing I have ever done and cant wait to get back and up to running again. We almost flipped the first time the brakes went out and then the second I put it in the timber to get it stopped and the third time thank goodness that Larry (KyBuggy1) was behind me to stop me or that one would have been ugly. Sorry about that Larry I will try to have my ride up to the challenge next time. I wasn't ready but Steve was going and I just decided to load up and go but I know what I have to fix now so I guess it all worked out. I want to thank Tim, Larry, Steve and everyone else that helped me out. I can't wait to get it fixed and come ride with you guys again. Here are some pictures of the damage.

No need to apologize, I'm glad I was sittin behind you to catch you. We would still be on that bluff trying to get your buggy out !! Koko had to catch my wife's buggy with his buggy in the same spot once, and she HAD brakes , so dont feel bad.
Me,Tim n Rhonda, both Hunters and Koko had a blast riding with you and Moondog and the others! I'm REALLY glad y'all had a good time, I was worried you was a little bummed out for a minute and wasnt sure if the "bug " bit you or not. I'm glad it did!!

Get that buggy fixed and come back and ride with us ASAP!!

It sucks ya had all the brake problems all weekend. At least you had a good ride though. You done great for your first time out! Like Dad said, I had a great time ridin' with you and the rest of your crew. Lookin' forward to next time.

I think there were a lot of people with brakes problems at D&K this weekend. David ran into the back of Angela, then he ran into the back of me and Sandra and about knocked us to the other side of the mountain. Sandra had problems with her brakes too. David worked on them both and got them working better than they were. Glad y'all enjoyed yourselves. I think this weekend was one of the best ever.

I really appreciate everything like I said. Tim, Rhonda and Hunter were great as well as you and KoKo. I couldn't imagine having some other hobby with any nicer people I really didn't expect that. I am laid off right now so funds are tight but I am going to do my best to be back together soon. Moondog thought I was gonna quit to, he wanted to buy my buggy for his wife if I did. But the bug did bite even though I did get a little freaked out when I had to use your buggy as my brakes. I hope I can return the favor somehow one day. Hope to see everyone on the trails again soon.
