Well, I went riding out at Red River Motorcycle Trails in Bulcher, TX on Saturday and managed to get stuck. Here are a couple pictures.

It was actually a little over a foot deep. My back tires aren't touching the ground or mud. The frame was actually sitting on top on mud. Look at the second pic and my foot that is up out of the water. Where it is sitting is what the frame was on. I ended up having to push it around about a foot and then was able to drive it out. I wouldn't classify it as a "worst stuck" photo, just a stuck one and my first. I was much muddier by the time I got it out and my bike was no longer yellow, but my riding partner didn't get a pic after that.

Buy a good four wheeler like a honda, get the utility version rather than the sport and you won't get stuck in a foot of water. What a waste of gas..........Just joking, couldnt pass up the easy oppertuinty. Muddings a blast on any 4 wheeler. Have fun but be safe.

Sports machines are fun in the mud plus you get extra dirty on a sports with the mud flying everywhere!

lol...Thanks guys. Yeah, on a utility I'm sure I wouldn't have had any issues, but I sure love the sport quads. When I turned around and came back through it in a different spot, I didn't have any issues. I think I just ended up going through a spot that a lot of people have been going through and mud started getting packed up and I hit it. It was fun though.

I'll get right on that Eric.

Yeah, I was hauling ass when I hit the water, but still evidentally went into a bad spot for my bike. Oh well. It was fun.
