To bad Lilah isn't coming, her pedaling peer pressure could have helped your cause. I'll throw my BMX in too

Hi Tim,
I can grab the rack and take it out to Moab. Let me know if that helps.

Woke up to snow here…. Not much, so hopefully getting the camper off the mountain and down to the road does not get exciting.
Hope to be on my way before noon. See you all at BFE.

I know I am a VERY last minute commitment for the pre-run...but I intend to make it again this year for my third consecutive time. I should arrive prior to sunset Thursday and am wiling to help you out Scott setting up camp/fire etc.

It looks like about 16 people attending. About 10 rigs.
Per Zepp’s updated Leader\Gunner list. Which I will bring this weekend. We still need the following leaders. We need gunners for these trails and others as well.
Cliff Hanger - Thursday
Flat Iron Mesa – Wed. and Sat – Dan Kucera and I want to lead it. We need to work out which days and will need waist\tail gunners to take out people at the end to avoid the intimidator\easer egg hill.
Moab Rim - Friday
Kane Creek – Sat

We will discuss our plan based on peoples needs Thursday night and Friday morning.
This is what I’m thinking personally.
Friday morning Dave and I and anyone who wants to come will meet at the event field next to slick rock campground. We will have a brief meeting at 9:30am with our new event mangers. Then we will run some trails. Not sure what yet.
I want to run Cliff Hanger with some potential leaders. I hear it has gotten harder and we need a leader for it. Dave isn’t running it in his rig that day. Half day run.
Dave and I have never run Porcupine. Need someone like Corbet to lead us on that. Half day run.
We definitely want to take our time running Flat Iron Mesa with the majority of the group. We will need future leaders and gunners for this one. We want to see how an experienced 80\100 driver feels about the Intimidator obstacle. Robbie had told me a long time ago he wouldn’t want to lead 80’s thru that obstacle. I remember it being tight and thrilling for my runner.

I'll have breakfast ready at 9:00 am on Friday so you can go to the meeting happy and full.
I'm still having a hard time deciding what rig to bring. My 40 or my 61?
61 isn't locked yet that's my hang up!
This is getting exciting!

I'm walking out of the house now. Still snowing but not sticking 
Happy to lead Porc for anyone looking to get familiar. Also happy to go up cliffhanger.
