I'm wink, i'm usually a pretty quiet person, but since Philberto is poking me with a stick here is my intro. i live in Louisville, KY and drive a 06 TB LS 4WD. I'm pretty new to the offroad stuff but i'm learning a lot from this and the other site.
Anyway, just popping in to say HI! now quit poking me, lol

:thumright: Hello wink. :thumleft: Don't be shy here and ask questions if you can't find the answers with a search. Lots of good people and ideas and everyone wants to help.

Why the OUCH? :?:

Philberto doesn't poke as hard as others. :poke:

Hey Wink. Nice to hear from you, I hope you keep it up.

Just for your reference (not that I figure you will infringe on any), here's a link to the site rules: http://www.offroadtb.com/about/site-rules

I hope we can get you into the offroad scene!

Doesn't KY have some decent mountains/hills to explore?

KY=Black Mountain. Tough on an atv and saw some truggies doing things that made me queasy watching. Been 3 years since I was there, but the whole area was pretty cool. Some awesome views from the firebreak roads on the ridges.

HHHMMM..KORA???

Is that a long way for you JD?

Welcome, any questions you have, feel free to ask but research a bit first... Some people like giving newbies a hard time. :poke:

Hooray! I knew my lurker poking would get me results eventually! Welcome to the conversation, wink. I look forward to seeing a build thread on your TB, and if you have any questions that you can't answer through research, please don't hesitate to ask.

It all depends on when... not too bad of a drive... probably looking at 8-9 hours for me. I've wanted to explore the tip of VA though, so it could work... maybe.

Thanks for the warm welcome. The bruising is starting to go down, lol. Once I start building, there will of course be a build thread. I also plan on going to meets and such to see some of the trucks in person and meet the people who built them. I'm also pretty new to KY so I'm not to sure where all the offroad spots are.
