In the Wild, Wild West of Eastern Texas, along the Barnwell Trail, Cattle Rustlers run rampant along the trail. It’s gonna take a skilled driver and capable scale adventure rig to make it back to camp with your losing your cows. Barnwell Mountain Recreational Area is the not so known hideout of the infamous Barnwell Trail Gang. Ruthless and toothless, these outlaws make their living rustling cattle. This chapter of the the “Scale Tales of the RECON G6” lands us in East Texas. Gilmer, Texas, to be exact. The first time for the G Train to make a stop in the Lone Star State. We look forward to seeing you in East Texas where we take on the Barnwell Trail Gang.

a RECON G6 has never been cancelled due to weather. The show will go on rain or shine.

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

*Chance of rain fri/sat..*
Bring bags for you radios for when/if it rains.
Your on course and it starts to pour,bag the radio up and carry on.

Spare clothes to change into might not be a bad idea either.

Rain or shine them cattle aint getting home by themselves...Push on!!
