Post by: xBADTRIPx on August 28, 2007, 03:46:05 PM
myself and a co-worker are planning an easy day trip tp Waiporous or Maclean Creek this weekend and i was wondering if anyone else had plans to go wheelin'.where and when is up in the air still, i'd like to go out early morning, but sat, sun or mon is fine with me and i'm happy going to either area. i'm wheelin' on 33's and my co-worker is running 31's so we don't plan anything to difficult.

Well since moving out to Brooks I haven't made a trip out to McLean so a trip is long past due! It turrns out that Brooks has a healthy population of Jeep enthusiasts so I am organising a trip with as many of the guys that I can get to come and make the 2 hour drive. As well I'm trying to drag my parents out in their virgin '06 Unlimited. It looks like we will be out at the store by about 9:00 - 10:00 'ish on sunday morning.
Seeing as it has been such a long time since I was out there, it would be great to see some of the guys that I have wheeled with in the past. As usual I will have my son riding shot gun with me. Hey Dom, Eugene... you guys should try and make it out on Sunday. Have lots of catching up to do and I have a few ideas I would like to pass by you Dom. Hope qwe get a good turn out.

I am up for a Sunday run..... I will have a rookie riding shot gun.  So is it Sunday @ 10am at the store? (McLean Creek)

EDIT:  If we could keep this a sorta small jeep run that would be great....the last open run I went on turned into a clusterfudge with the BIG chevs and we ended up towing them all off the trail. :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Cheers

Us guys from Brooks will be at the store by 10. There will be my self with my Rubicon on 33s, a YJ on 35s, and an Unlimited Rubicon on 33s. My parents may also come along with thier stock TJ Unlimited. I guess I'll see you guys when I get there.

That's cool your coming down from Brooks to see your olpals from Cowtown Josh. I'm very sorry I can make that one  :( . The good old XJ needed some serious love. I had two 2" cracks in my exaust manifold (I put in a Banks TorqueTube  8) ) and a screwed up bearing in my front end. My UCAs need new bushings aslo. I just have to make sure she's running good before I take her offroad.

Let me know if your coming to town sometime we'll go for a coffee or a cold beer. We can chat about your ideas...

You guys have fun and PLEASE BE SAFE!!!! It's a long week-end and sadly there is all kind stupid people out there that probably shouldn't be driving.

Cheers,
Dom

How'd it go?
I never made it out of my seeping bag anywhere near 10 AM all weekend.

Didn't see many Jeeps, seemed to be all quads/bikes this weekend....
