I figured since the other thread started out as talking about making a club, and what clubs are available, we should have a thread that's just dedicated to setting up trail runs.

The title says it all, and it'll be less cluttered.

So, the 9/18/10 Run to Potato Ridge was a success!

Next item on the schedule is Logandale on 10/23/10 according to McRoberts. Seems like we have a few interested parties! Who all is planning to attend?

If there is anything in the meantime, or someone local wants another rig to ride with them, just post up and see if anyone is available!

I'll be out at Nelson Sat afternoon/evening. Camping out there with a group of about 40-60 people. Everything from dirt bikes to jeeps to race trucks to quads. Basically just a huge group of offroaders doing their thing. Cause of that... I'm out for Sat day runs. I'm taking my truck and bike on Sat. Should have my jeep back together tomorrow night though again. Yes, it's apart for about the upteenth time since thanksgiving. I think I wrench on it more then I drive it.

Davidson-where was it that you went recently that had a steep incline? Was it in the myna where it would be cool weather? I'm thinking tht would be better suited for Saturdays run. Who all is interested?
It was Angel's Peak, 2000 feet in the last 2 miles. Rises up to 8700 or so feet if memory serves. Much cooler, and awesome views. Just found out the wife and kid might be out of town on Saturday, so I might just be freer than normal.

The views from up there are very impressive.
Angels peak has some awesome views, I've got some great pics from there over the past 30 years or so; Dad worked inside of that radar station (golf ball looking building) on the peak up until 4 or so years ago. Lots of memories there playing with old radar equip, running around in the old military bunk house & guard shack, etc. Haven't been up in a while though, next time there is a run out that way it would be fun to tag along.

I wish. That might be worth something. A saber claw would be around 4-6 inches and looks nothing like this.

It really looks like a black bear claw, but there aren't any around here.
Probably some cub scouts claw from his kerchief slide or something and now he is home crying his eyes out 'cause YSB snagged it before he could go back and find it.

Who knows if the info being reported about Seau's death is accurate at this point. It's probably full of errors with media all trying to be first to the bit with the info. Him driving himself off the cliff a few years ago sure seemed like a suicide attempt when you read the details yet he claims he fell asleep...

Power, nobody complains about a .22 going off in the back yard? I've never shot a .22 short, are they that much quiter then a .22LR? I know the .22 LR's in my glock conversion would get some attention and I live on the edge of the ghetto where that type of thing should be over looked! LOL

Polyurethane... If you're putting it in anything I'd suggest putting a grease fitting into the equation unless you like loud squeaking.
Ditto on the squeaking.. I have greased my joints a million times but my rig squeaks and squeals like a little boy in YSB's hands every time I go offload.

My Dad just sent me this picture. He never wanted a Jeep until I took him over Potato Ridge. Now he owns the yellow JK on the left and has obviously fallen in with the right crowd!

Anybody know of a good window tinting place in the west/northwest part of town? My tint is 11 years old and looks purple and dumb. :hahaha:
check out eco tint http://www.eco-tint.com/ They are top notch, they have tinted 3 of my cars and applied clear bra to two of them. Mike, I think he is one of the owners is a kick *** guy. Every time that I have been in there I have seen a super car getting tint or a clear bra installed. Last time it was an Audi RS8, I tried to get him to let me drive it... but it was a no go

I can do it on Sat morning, but it will have to be earlier. Say meet at 8 and on the road by 8:30.
U know how to get there? Meet up where? We'll see if my open diff can make it.
