Found this thread guys. I am cool with Todd wheeling my 40. Not a problem at all. It is overdue for a major break so I can at least blame Todd for his poor driving skills.....
All kidding aside, it is there if you want it Todd.
I am out for this trip due to family crap. If the 40 gets here, I am in for a trip soon. Especially a Cliffs run cause I have yet to see the place.

YES I will. The park is closed on moday but we will be there. It would be awesome if you came! Because, it will be the final runs for Toms pickup and Joes 4runner, and I think they are planning on walking out of the park. So it should be an interesting day, BUT Joe is bringing his GF and that means I have to ride with Tom.....I dont really want to ride with tom on a normal day...
So are you going down on friday?

Every weather forecast I look at says rain....rain and 50 sucks....not to be a sissy, but....
and I'd take the wagon down on Friday to the Cliffs with Phil and everyone, but have a bent LCA...ordering replacements today, but don't need to trailer that home if it does decides to let loose....
If I come Monday, you'll still be riding with Tom....lol My girlfriends daughter is begging me to take her, so she's already got dibs on my spare seat. (course, her mind changes as fast as her hair color...)

Talk to Oldnslo (Brian). He's taking a few of his Taco running FF buddies to the Cliff's on Friday. I'm up in the air on it so far. The 62 is starting to give me problems again.

well let me know if you go. There is a TTORA group going down to the badlands on friday that I could just hook up with. If it rains @ the cliffs on friday with a bunch of stockers, Ill find myself in recovery mode all day. Still might go....

I've got lower fronts, although I'm sure you didn't bend one of those. You don't want to run the Cliffs in spring in the rain in the 80 unless you want it to look like Ige's.

John loves to run with the stockers. To them his "crouching pansy, hidden nutsack" style of wheeling makes him look like a hero.

I may or may not make it. I have to work Friday night and Saturday night and I don't want to be sleepy on the trail and damage any thing. (of course that never really stopped me before.)
