Each year a group donates a SXS Ride to a local charity auction. The ride is for as many people that are willing to pay $150 a head which is cheap for what you get. What you are buying is the organized ride, any booze you want handed out before you leave, multiple bar stops with food and snacks throughout the day, and a meal at the last stop. Everything is paid for if you bought in. We left at 11:00 AM and got to our last stop around 7:00 PM for the meal. We rode paved roads, gravel roads, dirt roads, though fields, timbers, creeks, and 1 river. The river crossing was more than some SXS could handle and after a stuck rig in the middle some opted to use the bridge. The local Po Po was not impressed with us driving through his river and made a phone call to the ride organizer to tell us to get out of his county. He drove across the bridge when we were stopped at the river but choose to turn left rather than visit us. Probably a good call for all parties involved. Great time had by most as some were not expecting to get 6"-8" of water in their SXS. My XD cruised through the river and barely let a drop in.

Looks like a great time. River crossing looked fun. Sheriff was just mad because he had to work that day.🤣
 
Looks like a great day and for a good cause! I would thoroughly enjoy something like that for sure. Thanks for sharing the photos as well.
