locker is required - 80 got no lockers, unless you make an exception, I am familiar with tahoe side dipping down, but I dont want to get kicked out for no lockers, I will shoot for friday night. fyi - if i do bring the 80 - I will have 3 seats open for pasengers, but i am pretty sure at least one locker is required for the tlca event. so more likely if I make it I will bring the pickup

peesalot · 05-17-07, 05:15 PM

cool, look for a camo 40 with a big dork drivin.

woooody · 05-17-07, 06:29 PM

Hey Tony

Sorry I'm late, I'll be sending in my registration this weekend (or I'll hand it to you at Fun Day)...

geez, only 14 days to go until the end of registration. People better get hot!

greenfox · 05-17-07, 07:08 PM

I can I give you my registration this weekend too Tony?

DaveWest5150 · 05-18-07, 09:26 AM

So... Whats the story? Are runs full yet?
Its time to get excited! doesnt look like well have much snow this year.
Any word on wether we will be able to have open fires yet?

TRT2 · 05-18-07, 11:29 AM

The only run full is the wagon run (as most are aware), and the remaining runs have room.

I'd like to have camping, meal and shirt counts by 6/1, thus the 5/31 target. I can always accommodate more camping, but meals and shirts are of limited quantity.

To those of you who have submitted registrations, you can expect your confirmation next week. Dave, yours might take a tad longer as I always have to dumb in down for you.

DaveWest5150 · 05-19-07, 10:27 AM

you mean "it" oh, o.k. Thanks

65swb45 · 05-20-07, 12:22 AM

And hoping that all the Euro Cruiser Brothers [ECB] get a seat somehow....... as it seems now we will have to fight with 5 people for the seat Alvaro offered.

ANY offers are welcome, here or PM.

woooody · 05-21-07, 12:00 PM

Depending on -- I may have a seat open on the Double Locker run in a 40...

The big question is how much gear are they planning on bringing? Packing double gear gets tough. - tent - clothes - sleeping bag - food...

Cruiserdrew · 05-21-07, 12:23 PM

Peter-Are you guys going to be at the Wednesday start of the wagon run? Generally the wagons can pack in a bit of extra gear, and most passengers want to hike part or most of the trail, so I'm thinking as long as the euro group was not tied to riding the entire way, it should work out. One of our group (David) is already planning on hiking the entire trail (it's much faster than driving) and my son Jeff, after this weekend, thinks the wagons move too slow and he wants to hike as well, at least part of the time. Tell your friends to pack light.

mickey_rubicon · 05-21-07, 03:10 PM

I dont have lockers in my 80, if somehow I could get a "no locker" pass from the run committee, I could offer 3 seats - starting Friday night though. I dont have enough vacation to start Wednesday. Just an idea to toss around. Feel free to PM me.

woooody · 05-21-07, 03:28 PM

It's either a locker OR lower gears... What R&P do you have?

I have 1993 FZJ80 with OME lift and 33 inch tires and original toyota factory R&P. I am in kind of a limbo I guess to be allowed on the runs for the event. My pickup with lockers needs a parking brake and my 80 series is open diff. Two birds in the bush none in the hands situation. It will be easier to fit a parking brake on my pickup than to re gear or lock the 80 in time. The only reason I considered the 80 is because it sounds like people need to fit into a vehicle. June 1st is around the corner, I will update by then if I solved my technical challenges.

NorCalDoug · 05-21-07, 06:49 PM

Mickey - you need the locker...or you're gonna get pulled a WHOLE bunch. Get crackin' on that parking brake...sounds like that'll be the quicker solution for you.

DaveWest5150 · 05-21-07, 08:49 PM

who all is planning to attend the wed. breakfast run?
Tony can we get a list of people that are signed up?

hi andrew !
we 'll pack light !, just like this, with a 2 places tent or maybe a hamac if there is no rain....and no bear

(there is ???? lol , because i don't want to be "food for bears")

is it ok for you guys ?,by hiking...you want to say...by foot ???

woooody · 05-22-07, 03:58 AM

A backpack is perfect

Yes hiking = by foot. It's a relatively easy hike... but you should be in good shape to do the whole trail. Thinner air/higher elevation.

Hammock -- I know many people that sleep without a tent. Yes, there are bears. I've rolled up in a tarp before, but it does get "dewey" (moist) at night, if there's little wind.

alvarorb · 05-22-07, 09:02 AM

There are some many people snoring that bears won't be an issue. Specially if you put your hammock near my tent. I call it bear insurance...

lol alvarorb, so you are my insurance to not meet a bear near my hammock, but i assume i'll not sleep at all, because you snore like a V8 chevy ?

i think i prefer the bear... ahahahah

just for pleasure, a picture of the TLC SERIE-4 FRANCE Association meeting, wich i'm the president, this was happened this week end

enjoy it ! (my bj43 is the third starting from the left side)
