N. Colorado/S. Wyoming Cruiser Club? - Page 2

Magoo · 10-27-05, 03:46 PM

this is a great idea,but like woody said u really need to let it grow first.we would need pres,vice pres.,secretary, ya know all that stuff first.so u would kinda have to see whos good at what.the good thing is u would start this with friends,or at least folks u know.
and from what ive seen of rising sun it takes money to hold a club together,or that could be just their setup.rising sun puts on events and runs and stuff.
either way im in.this actually makes me really happy cause im looking into moving up to the fort area and was hoping to be involved with a club of somesort.right on guys,let us know what goes down,and if i can help in any way.

Magoo · 10-28-05, 04:24 PM

This idea started out in the 55 forum:

http://forum.ih8mud.com/fj55-iron-pig-preservation-society/63062-who-owns-soa-fj55-cheyenne-wy.html

FJBen and I have managed to get out a few times for some runs this summer. It would be fun to form up a club and have some cool runs and events.

So far I have heard interest from FJBen (Greeley), Chalmic (Fort) and MiniPigg (Cheyenne). Razor? USMCruiser? ActionJackson? Who else would be down with this?

I'm in Ft. Collins and am currently a member of Rising Sun, but the drive to Denver is not always my cup of tea. Plus, it makes it hard to bring my 40 to meetings when I have to wind it up to 70 MPH for an hour to get there. I asked Rising Sun about starting a North chapter up here but there was little interest.

Obvious questions to answer:

-Who would like to get in on this?

-What to call the club?

-Where to meet?

-Should we be a TLCA chapter?

Let me know - this would kick a$$!!!

Umm, as for a place to meet, you could meet at Stevinson Toyota West

Good luck guys. Now if we can get Colorado Land cruisers back in action we can start making a big Yota showing here in Colorado

chalmic · 10-28-05, 10:53 PM

TJ,
Count me in on the club.
Name.....always tough cause you are stuck with it.
Rocky Cruisers?
Give me a call this weekend and maybe we can check the timing & idle!

Rzeppa · 10-29-05, 12:19 PM

I just want to let everyone reading this thread know that TJ and I have been in contact about this, and you guys have my support. As TLCA Mountain/Central Individual Representative, part of my job is to help new TLCA chapters form. I have given TJ the same advice that Woody did, namely, get started on on your feet first, then we'll talk about TLCA chapter sanctioning.

I've been a Rising Sun member for over 6 years, and an officer for more than half that, so I am very loyal to Rising Sun. Yet at the same time, I do see the potential need for something up North for folks who otherwise wouldn't be in Rising Sun because of the long drive. I do want to make sure that if this new club gets started, that it doesn't suck too many Rising Sun members away, but at this point it looks like it might be just a hand full.

Good luck, and let me know what I can do to help out!

Happy cruisin'!

PabloCruise · 10-29-05, 01:45 PM

Thanks Jeff - I appreciate your support, that of the TLCA and all the solid folks at Rising Sun for giving me the idea!

Rescue Wagon · 01-03-06, 09:55 PM

I live off of Happy Jack right by Gilcrest Elementry. And I work on Bishop Blvd about a 1/2 mile off of Central.

Just moved here in September from Loveland. I got sick of commuting an hour each way and with the housing prices in CO.

That's funny. I already live in a barn. It's been converted to a 2 bed room apartment, but it's still a barn.

Oh yeah I forgot about the Horse. He doesn't snore and he eats cheap.

stinkyfj60 · 01-23-06, 05:37 PM
