I will now be leading the open run on Saturday the 10th.  :)

Most of the interest in this run seems to be coming from people with reasonable rigs, so here are the requirements:

Good quality MT's with plenty of tread
Front and rear recovery points
CB

Destination...I dunno...where do we want to go?

If the forecast for this week is accurate, this might be an interesting run.  :o

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

I see that there's an open run on the calendar for next weekend (1oth) and nobody listed to lead it.

Of course, given that I missed the September meeting, it's entirely possible that I'm just out of the loop.

Has anything been planned? I'm definitely in for that run - hopefully even with a lift installed by then.  :)

Try reading the minutes posted in the members section  ;D

Ummm....sure?

I'm thinking that this run is the "Thanksgiving" run - the one that Bnine is leading...but maybe I'm still out of the loop. I seem to be confused a lot since I've gottne back from the middle east.  ;D

I'm just harassing you... I have no clue but since it is the Thanksgiving weekend then it does seem like a pretty good guess.

where we going?

I spoke with Bnine and he mentioned Fisher East as a possibility... but maybe he was just trying to scare me... which is gonna be hard to do after "double up" from 2 Saturdays ago :o

Oh ya... count me in :)

Is the Oct 10 still an open ride?  If so, where/when is everyone staging?  I'd like to join in for another ride in my quest toward membership.   I've only made it out to one open club ride  (Jeeping 101). 
I'm running an essentially stock '99 Sahara (with the addition of  front and rear recovery bumpers, winch and 31" Pro-Comp MT's) Will my rig measure up for the planned run?

We usually meet @ 9:00 am at the store.  I think we are a bit up in the air as to who is leading.  (Bnine is unbale to lead now).  There should be a few members out there.  We can see what rigs show and divide into groups at that point. 

I'm sure w squared will have his fancy-schmancy lift buttoned up and be eager to lead  ;D

Yes to the leading, maybe to the lift. Still waiting on my rear spring retainers  ???

Let's hear some suggestions on where we'd like to go. I've got a couple of ideas, but I don't have my mind set on any one thing.

I would be interested in heading out for the day before it gets to Icy.

Quirk Ridge?
My greatest fear is that when I die, my wife sell all my stuff for what I said I paid for it.

Maybe. One of the big factors for Quirk Ridge is the size of the group. There's not a lot of room at the top.
