Anyone want to go?

Im in, just set a date.

 

[kert0307]

I might... my explorer needs some stuff before I'd take that drive though (tie rod ends and ball joints). I'll check back in a couple weeks and see where I'm at. Buying a house and doing some minor renovations has really been setting me back lately.

Ok i've been off for a bit, since its nice out and took my 6 weeks off of school i've been outside as much as possible. I talked to Bigman and he broke another drive shaft but his 250 is up and running again so he'll trailer me out to Cliffs.

As of now, i'm busy on Aug. 10th (Mayhem Fest)

and the weekend after i might be outa town but we'll see.

Hey JMan, i dissapeared for awhile. I went and bought a bike and have been spending alot of time on that. Whats the word with the cliffs run? Im done with school on sat morn the first week of sept.

Does anyone know if there are any camp sites anywhere around cliffs? I'm not really that excited about making the trip in one day again...lol

I know that there are camp grounds in the area, but not sure were. Finding a site shouldnt be a prob. That would aslo make for a good BBQ oppurtunity!

Nope, but a camp grounds a camp ground right?

How does Aug 23rd work? If we do it, I'd come down Friday evening camp, and then wheel Sat.

 

[01slvrsprt]

I could prob make that work. I still have to fig out a way to have my tow hooks put back on tho. Other than that, I should be ok.

Damn! Now thats a tiny bike!

 

[mynameisaric]

i'm gonna say maybe for me as of now. suppost to go to the beach that weekend. not sure which day. so if you guys are definite on the 23rd, than i can probably get everyone to go to the beach on the 24th. so lets set a date in stone so i can try out my new snorkel and front bumper. might even have my sliders on by then too.

 

[JMan689]

Its up to you guys, i'm good that weekend.

And yeah its small, but its fun =D

 

[kert0307]

If the date can work for everyone, lets make it official, Aug 23.

Can someone change the thread title to include the date?

 

[RFR2212]

I'll be in WI at the lake that weekend and will be at Attica the prior weekend

 

[01slvrsprt]

Aug 23rd...fine by me

 

[mynameisaric]

i'm in. you guys better not back out. i'm getting closer to my sas, so i dont want to get my truck all caked with mud again for a run with one other explorer.

01slvrsprt, thats a pretty truck you have there. you better be on your game wheeling at the cliffs. as long as its pretty dry out, you should be golden, but if its slick out, that mud will slide you into things you don't want to slide into. at least you have mud terrains, those will help IMMENSELY!

GAME? What game? lol Ive never been out there, remember....As far as sliding into sh*t, whatever happens happens...Its not like its a show car. The one thing that im concerned about is I had to take my tow hooks off when I put on the BL. I need to fig out a way to put them back on, while still connected to part of my frame...but unless somthing comes up, im there.
