Rising Sun Folks...

We are looking at our upcoming 2021 schedule, and wanted to include you guys in the conversation as well. We talked about doing it virtually this year, instead of meeting up. A thread was started on our CLC forum. I think the plan is the run the same line up as last year, minus a few. If we end up doing things virtually, I'll pass along the info. Once we get our schedule finalized, I'll be sure to pass that along as well.


As a side note, I'll have to be putting in for leave next year in January...40s only run??? I normally meet up and run a trail with you guys for that event.

Stay well,
Kyle

What is CLC? I am assuming it stands for colorado land cruisers. If that is the case, is it only for LCs or are all welcome?

Kyle,
We actually have our Monthly club meeting scheduled at the same time, 1/6 at 7PM. We've got a new board of officers starting up and we're getting our 2021 calendar together as well. Thanks for reaching out and continuing to coordinate with our chapter, hope we can find some good overlap opportunities this year!

Sounds good...we will let you know what we decide for our runs, and we'll coordinate with you guys for yours as well. Would be great to hook up with you guys this year. Hopefully I can make the 40s only run again this year!

How many did the gulches! Well most of metberry! Friend of mine invited me from Co cruisers. Saw the mud post as well. That count as a club event deal? The clubs are combined often?! Try to see if I can get the Medano or Slaghter house runs to work.
