Rubicon Village

 

As I was taking a look around this stunningly beautiful, yet darkly lit village, which is nestled on the rough-hewn hillside of the Rubicon Bay on the shrouded island of Tyr, I became more and more enchanted by the mood here. Rubicon Village is a very unique part of There. It is rare that a member built community, has such a unique style as this place. My pictures here only give a taste as to what it is really like when you come here to visit

 

I was enjoying the fog-laden sights, and then a friendly voice came up and said, “welcome to the village.”

It was Neil Denier. He explained how Irish Bloom built most of the village, and how he built the lighthouse in her honor. From this point I received the friendliest tour and conversation regarding Rubicon Village and it’s interesting aspects. (Thank You, Neil!)

 A rustic wooden ship docks near shore. Some weathered homes nearby have warming fires and promise to take off the Tyrian chill if you were to enter. The cold ocean waters splash up against the rocky shore as the sturdy village buildings resist the sea and the endless mists and foggy nights of Tyr.

 

Shhhh!

Something you must know… this village generally allows paintball, but there’s more…

-Just up the hill is perhaps the coolest and most brutal race track in all of There. Hey, you just gotta check this out! (More on this in an upcoming story)

Take a look at the pic with Neil Denier and a buggy that is/was a contest prize. Another shot is on the mountainous hillside as Neil took me for a spin around this crazy nightmare of a track. Neil mentioned to me that this course would be changed frequently to keep up the challenge level. Think you can handle it? lol! It’s for TUV only; a regular buggy will have sitting upside down, perhaps more than right-side-up.

 

 

Whoa! So this seemingly quiet and peaceful village in the dark-regions may not be such a quiet little get-away as it first appears. Gas up your TUV, and bring a full load of paintballs as well. See you at Rubicon Village and, at Rubicon Hardcore Offroad Racing Track

 

Cheers to Rubicon!
