Meeting In January

PabloCruise · 12-30-05, 11:10 PM

Lets figure out a date for the January meeting.

When can we get the most Cruiser folk in one spot?

Mondays are bad for me...

polarweasel · 01-01-06, 01:15 PM

Any weekday evening is all right with me. I'd prefer those to weekends...

Alex

FJBen · 01-03-06, 04:57 PM

We could have it at mi casa if needed. weekdays/nights work for me.

usmcruiser · 01-03-06, 07:10 PM

Any evening would be good for me execpt for.....the 18th - 20th and 30th and 31st. I have to work evenings on those days.

MiniPigg · 01-03-06, 07:35 PM

let me know when... i will try to make it... will have to cross it over with my wifes schedule.

nuclearlemon · 01-03-06, 07:51 PM

tuesdays, 7ish and i could probably make it.

PabloCruise · 01-05-06, 08:18 PM

Alright, lets go for a Tuesday so we can get Ige and Mike.

I say we go for meeting the 10th at Ben's house. You still up for that Ben?

If the 10th does not work, it'll have to be the 24th - I'm booked the 17th.

Who is coming????

nuclearlemon · 01-05-06, 09:03 PM

i'll be there.

usmcruiser · 01-05-06, 10:23 PM

I'll be there. Need directions.

madams557 · 01-06-06, 08:42 AM

So what's the word?

Greeley on Tuesday the 10th?

fj45lv · 01-06-06, 09:41 AM

I will try to make it. Directions? should i bring anything? (besides a Cruiser?)

PabloCruise · 01-06-06, 11:39 AM

Sounds like the 10th works for folks!

Ben - you up for a Cruiser horde at La Casa de Ben?

FJBen · 01-06-06, 11:52 AM

No problem, should be fine with that date! 7:00 Greeley!

Should I post directions here??? or PM everyone?

Rescue Wagon · 01-06-06, 10:43 PM

Rescue Wagon · 01-08-06, 09:41 PM

MiniPigg,

Call me tonight or sometime tomorrow and we can head down there together.

James

usmcruiser · 01-09-06, 09:24 AM

Rick are you going?

If so do you want to carpool?

Ben, Could you PM me directions also. From I25 at berthoud.

FJBen · 01-09-06, 09:30 AM

I'll PM everyone the directions/map today. Definitely easy to find.

usmcruiser · 01-09-06, 11:18 AM

How long do we expect the meeting to go on? Gotta let the baby sitter know.

I'd imagine 7 to 9 would be my guess....you know how cruiserheads like to talk!

FJBen · 01-09-06, 01:07 PM

I sent PM's to all for directions...anyone else need directions?

polarweasel · 01-09-06, 07:48 PM

Crap, I'm not coming. I have to pull yet another engine Tuesday night. (Yours is pulled now, Ben! Yay!)

Who was it that wanted my four wheels and tires? Was that you, MiniPigg? Any chance someone from Loveland could grab them and bring them over to Ben's for me?

Give me a call at 970-744-1232 and we'll figure it out!

Alex

nuclearlemon · 01-09-06, 07:56 PM

got thte directtions...thanks...do we need to bring anything? beer?

usmcruiser · 01-10-06, 08:36 AM

ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGG, as of right now it doesnt look like I can make it now.

Wife just called me at work to tell me that the 3 year old just puked all over his bed. And since she has to work tonight look like I need to stay home with him. I dont want to leave him with a baby sitter if he fells like a bag of smashed ass.

Oh well next month.................hopefully

I don't think you need to, unless there is some sort of beverage you'd like to drink...I have my kegorator, but the beer is close to 3 months old and a bit skunky tasting...:( I shoulda planned better! We'll have some chips and such so it's up to you if you want to bring anything.

NO worries, we'll get it sometime...sucks when the youngun's are sick.

fj45lv · 01-10-06, 09:52 AM

Plan on making it, but have not received dirtections, could someone please PM them to me? Thanks!

Rzeppa · 01-10-06, 04:37 PM

Hello friends. As some of you know, I'm the TLCA Mountain/Central Individual Representative. Part of my job is to help new chapters become sanctioned in TLCA. Some months ago TJ and I discussed getting a new club going up north there. I had advised TJ to first get the club going, and then subsequently go for TLCA sanctioning.

Well, the other day, I got an email from TLCA Aministrator Jennifer Lorincz, asking that I contact a fellow named Frank Morgan in Fort Collins, he's interested in TLCA sanctioning. Well, I kind of figured it was one of you guys. Turns out it isn't. I spoke with Frank last night on the phone, and he and his buddies are major cruiser enthusiasts. These guys (Horsetooth Four Wheelers, or something with Horsetooth in their name) have been around for 5 years, and are already members of the Colorado Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs. They are already an established club! Frank doesn't know about mud, and describes himself as not too good with computers. He has worked as a Toyota Tech at both Stevinson and Larry Miller, and sounds like a pretty good wrench. His rig is a stretched 40 body on an FZJ80 frame and suspension! He says he's been playing phone tag with TJ. TJ, I hope you don't mind, I gave him both your numbers and also your email from the Rising Sun roster.

Here's the thing - it would be pretty counter-productive to have TWO cruiser clubs in a town the size of Fort Collins (even including the surrounds and Cheyene, etc.), right? So, I'd really like to see you guys hook up with the Horsetooth guys, okay?

TIA and happy cruisin'!

PabloCruise · 01-10-06, 04:48 PM

You are correct Jeff!

Frank and I finally tracked each other down - he is coming to the meeting to night, although NOT in the FZJ-40...

Thanks!
