A little more about the driver: I am Nik, a 23 year old Sergeant in the Untied States Army. I am really big into photography, epsecially of anything automotive, and feel I can bring something to the table when the next TECORE event. I am also generally into anything outdoors, especially camping, off roading, and shooting. I am married, for a little over a year now, to my wonderful wife Baillie, and we are expecting our first son on October 12th. We have two dogs, her Chihuahua Mike and my Puggle Harley, who both go with us on any type of road trip and love being outside as well. My wheeling experience is fairly good, I used to go with my dad every chance I could talk him into it before I could drive in our 93 S10 Blazer, and learned to drive in it. I later went on to sink that in a lake, so I am fully aware that our vehicles DO NOT float and are not water tight. I also had an 87 Subaru BRAT that I beat the piss out of off road, and fixed everything I broke myself. Later I got a 93 Geo Tracker which I built up pretty good (lift/tires/off road bumper/herculined-interior and -rockers). I do all the work on all my vehicles myself, if at all possible, and feel I have a fairly good mechanical knowledge base. Here are some pics...feel free to make fun of my big head.
The Trailblazer a few days after we got it...we are at the old New River Bridge in West Virginia, on our way to Kansas from Virginia.

Me and my wife Baillie at our wedding ceremony this March...she was 11 weeks pregnant here. This was our celebration of our wedding, as we had already been married for 9 months.
