The wife and I will be there. It should be a good run to 'break in' the fresh Samurai. Some of you may remember we were on an open ride a couple of years ago with our very, very tired Sammy. Since then it's been sitting in the garage unplated, getting lots of new mods:

-1.6 engine from a Tracker (don't laugh - stock was 1.3)
-tuned sportbike carburetors on custom intake manifold
-new clutch
-onboard air
-redneck engineered lift using coils from an old Civic
-anti-wrap bar on rear axle
-new shocks
-front brakes from a Tracker
-master cylinder from a Subaru
-lunchbox lockers front and rear
-OTT steering from an old Mercedes

...and probably a lot more I can't remember right now. It's been a long time since this truck has been to the trail! This should be a good run to bring us back into the fold.

Should we bring FRS radios? No CB here.

i think the norm for the CJA is channel 10. Bring FRS if you like but im not sure how many others will have. if you dont have a CB dont worry too much. its an obvious trail and keep on eye on whos in front and behind you.

If I can get it together, I might just try making this run. I'm a complete newbie so you guys can tell me if my rig is worthy before we leave Cochrane.
At the very least, it's a nice drive from Okotoks to Cochrane.

This is a cja sanctioned run. So expect inspection, and a speech. Preferrably by Heeps or Johnny, apparently I'm an assholre before noon. Be prepared and have a good attitude no matter what.
Getting grumpier every day.

Awesome day out today, met a lot of new people. Put faces to a few forum members.
Baja'd a bit (ok, more than a bit :o), and the old heep still made it out under it's own power.
Or was that "get the redneck out"? ;D

Too bad about the Sammy's opverheating issues, that was a Badass rig.
Thanks for organizing a fantastic day.
