My wife and I are going to be in Moab next weekend and I was wondering if I could tag along one of the days? I am relatively new to offroading and am sure I could learn much. Could you give me directions to your camping location, which day would be best and what time you will be heading out in the morning? We will be arriving on Thursday and leaving on Monday.

You are certainly welcome to join us. I agree that this is how you get better at potentially lead a trial for us someday.
Typically we use this opportunity to run several trails pretty fast in one day. And the focus is to run trails that the CM trail leaders and gunners need to work on. Those are usually the harder trails but not always.
I'm sure there will be an opportunity at some point for you to run a trail with someone that is looking to lead Fins or Hells or Porcupine etc. for the first time. We can fit you in.
Drive into Area BFE and continue straight then on the main road that goes down and to the right. Then continue straight thru the second opening into the trees and our main fire will at the next corner. You can find a site off the road near us. Corbet will be setup there before us. Most of us will be arriving Thursday night sometime.

Sounds great. I can hardly wait. We are also signed up for CruiseMoab but can't wait for another month. I just had and new set of 285 BFG TA KM2s mounted on the FJ this afternoon. Thanks and I look forward to seeing everyone and learning lots. I'll bring some beer for the campfire.

Are we going to be able to pre-night-run Fins?
I want to run it regardless.

That is great news. The Power's children probably will not make it from Durango. Bridger will be excited to have a buddy. Probably not as excited as dad.
I'm in one way or the other.
If we need to train on Porc I'm happy to do so, as I'm not able to lead it at the event this year as I normally do.

Hey would anyone be willing to deliver a roof rack to Moab for me? it's flat, 3/4 rack, you could strap it to your roof at the meeting this Wednesday, then meet someone in Moab on Friday or Saturday. It pays 
.. or name your price if you want some cash. I need to know by tomorrow (Monday) night, thanks!

I can't make the meeting but I can throw it in the camper for Moab. Maybe check with Matt (Subzalli) or Justin (Bruiser) & see if they're going to the meeting.... Or anyone else that lives near Kipling & Bowles

I may be at the meeting but if not and it gets to me I can put it on the roof, no problem.

Everett will be up at 0600 most likely. I'd imagine that we'd be on the road by 0800
Sorry if I missed it, but what truck will you be in, T?

We'll be in the 80 pulling the camper

Don't forget the kid's bikes. Everett is pretty excited to get on his Stridor.
I have a full array of bikes lined up.
Brider's 16" Bmx
Dad's 24" BMX
Bridger's Trail a Bike
Dad's XC Soft-Tail
We are planning a ride on Thursday somewhere. Then play at BFE on the BMX. Bridger is not very strong on the BMX yet. But I'm holding strong on no more strider.
