Would someone want to bring a meter to tune my cb antenna tomorrow? That's assuming it does take long with a tunable tip antenna.

I've got mine already in the cruiser. I'm going to tune mine before we get rolling. I moved it the other day so want to make sure it all good. You are welcome to use it.

Based on the conditions the ice could be a serious consideration. Especially on the hill above the middle parking lot. Coming down down that spot last year was a bit of an uncontrolled slide .

Hahahah boy is that an understatement. Thank goodness for the ruts! I don't remember if it was last year or the year before when Taco Dan came sliding back down that hill backwards fast with all 4 wheels locked and not turning. As I recall we chose a different route up that hill, a left turn into deeper but better traction snow? I remember coming down that glassy ice and keeping it in gear so my wheels were turning to have some semblance of control but accelerating way faster than I would have liked like a bobsled.

I'm taking 6th, I-70 looks like a parking lot

 

[KC Masterpiece]

Yeah I just made the turnoff for central parkway. It's been a parking lot on 70 since georgetown

 

[Mendocino]

You've got some more arriving any minute. More traffic hassles...

One of the new guys here. Thanks for having me and my son along. I was in the white taco. Everyone was super helpful.

I do have to give a shout out to one person in particular who snatched me out of a snow drift near the top. I made a newbie mistake and handed him a static recovery rope instead of a kinetic recovery rope, which did some damage to his bumper when he snatched me out.

I OWE YOU a big thanks, a big apology, and either some time and/or $ to repair that front bumper damage.

I found a picture that I believe is the guy...I'm pretty sure he's a regular because he was helping everyone throughout the day, especially on that first hill.

 

[justin4045]

Check out the event and trip report section for the convo and photos. I believe it is labeled burrito and snow run.

Yep that’s me’ I will have to look into what if any damage is done. May be a few days before I can get to it. But Thank you for posting up. If something serious happened we’ll figure it out. In the future you may want a real recovery strap. Buy the way no hard feelings, and glad you came out and had a good time. Dan

 

[dehru]

@FJCDan - Yep, i just ordered a bubba kinetic rope and a couple of those nifty soft shackles you had. Keep me updates once you find out what happened. It's all a good learning experience anyway.

 

[JadeRunner]

Glad to hear guys connected. Use use the trip report thread though.

I had a great time (though next time I'm bringing chains)!

So, it looks like I'm missing four handheld FRS radios. I've heard from @KC Masterpiece and @denvermike, but I'm not sure where the other two radios went. I think @Hulk might have one.

If whoever has them could reach out to me via DM here on the forum, or you can text/email me (contact info is listed on the radio), that would be awesome!
