| Saturday Trail Run
Looking to play somewhere along Beeline, not sure of the trail, open to suggestion.
What is known; meet at Baja gas station for a 9am pull out.

In this case we are just looking to get out there. There are lots of trails in the area to select from, the decision will probably be made at the meet place, depending on what rigs show, the challenge level they are looking for and how long everyone want to stay out. What are your "needs"?

Sounds a lot better than a roundtrip to Houston to sit in the German consulate, only to end up for 1+ hour in pregame traffic around LSU  | |

| What was the huge cloud of smoke when we got on the highway?
On the CB, at times you came in strong, others nothing. I would check for a bad coax connection or cable.

| It was a pretty good show from behind, not often you see that much smoke from a rig on the highway, have it clean up and continue driving!
