Looking to ride shotgun

Hey All,

My name is Mike Fox. I am a proud member of Yankee Toys based in Mass and the owner of this:

I also spent two years on the NEUROC circuit so I am well versed in all types of rigs from stock to rock. My comp rig was this:

Anyway, my friend Ralph and I will be in LV on a business trip, staying on the strip, from May 30 to June 6th and we were wondering if there are any planned rides during that time and if so, could we get a little passenger seat time in? Our schedule is kind of tight but Ive never been out on a Western trail and would love to go out.

Also looking for any advice on night time activities.

Thanks,

Sweet rides.

No help with trail rides here, I'm up north in Reno. Try a PM to Mace. I also heard that rentals make the best off roaders.

Just be sure to take the extra insurance.

Two guys in town on business shouldn't have to much trouble finding stuff to do at night in Las Vegas.

No trail rides for me right now. I am working on getting up to Denver to pick up a 45LV for someone.
Sorry amigo..

If you can find a Jeep to rent I've heard they disconnect t-case shifter.

If you can't hook up with anybody and can't find a Heep to rent I'd suggest Valley of Fire. Then loop back around Lake Mead to Boulder City. Very scenic, even if it's all paved roads. It's an all day trip so pack a lunch or plan to stop at Echo Bay Marina.
