Broncos take over Red River Gorge

This looks like a fun ride! I saw that the minimum equipment for the medium ride is 35's + locker.
What are the minimums for the easy rides? I looked on the website but didn't see any info.
I live in Lex, am buying a Bronco soon, and I'm debating a Base Sasquatch and non-Sas Badlands.

Every ride level has different vehicle and experience requirements. Our Easy rides are open to basically any Bronco stock Broncos are welcome, any trim level or tire size, and you do not need a locker. Those rides are geared more toward newer drivers and people wanting to learn what their Bronco can do without getting into anything too difficult.

The Medium rides require a little more experience behind the wheel, along with more ground clearance. For most of our Medium rides I require at least 35-inch tires and a rear locker.

The main reason I require a locker isn’t because every obstacle absolutely can’t be done without one. A locker lets you crawl through obstacles slower and with more control. Without one, you sometimes have to use more momentum or speed to get through the same obstacle. That can shock load the drivetrain and increase the chances of breaking something or wearing drivetrain components out faster.

We try to make the requirements fit the trails we’re running that particular day, so they can change a little from ride to ride.

If you’re just getting into a Bronco, a Sasquatch equipped or Badlands would be a great starting point. You’d be more than welcome on our Easy rides while you get some seat time and learn the Bronco. Then once you’re comfortable, you can start moving up to the Medium rides. That’s actually how quite a few people in our group have done it.

Thanks for the reply! I'll definitely join for an easy ride. Either way I go I'll have lockers.
I'm buying the Bronco primarily to have access to camping, climbing, and hiking (and because I think it's cool). Maybe I'll fall in love with crawling too.

You will love it. I’ve had mine for almost 5 years now and I’ve loved every moment with it. It’s taken me on many adventures by myself and with friends.
