River Shiver 2006

Behemoth60 · 11-03-05, 09:39 AM

Do you have annoying tan lines? Trouble pronouncing the word 'Toque'? Can't illuminate a room when you're naked? Tired of that nagging feeling of warmth and comfort? We've got the cure for you!

The Rocky Mountain Land Cruisers are hosting thier second River Shiver. Feb. 17-20, 2006. This is one not to be missed. Awesome food, hot prizes, amazing scenery, and an inviting beach with the coolest white sand you'll ever get in your thong.

When?
February 17-20, 2006;
http://www.rmlca.ab.ca/rivershiver/index.html

Where?
Just outside of Calgary Alberta (Canada eh?)

Some pictures of last year;
http://www.rmlca.ab.ca/runs/rs2005/index.html

Yes non-LC's are allowed to come. In fact, the truck that spanked most of the other trucks and trails was a Toyota p/u running chains.

Early bird price is $225 Cdn which gets you 9 meals, 3 nights accomodation, and 2 days of winter wheeling.

The only TLCA sanctioned event North of the border!

An awesome time!!!

I lost my toque. Need a new one. See ya there.

woody · 11-30-05, 11:40 AM

(stuck, per lowenbrau's VENDOR star....)

sounds like a great event!!

calamaridog · 12-03-05, 06:47 AM

1,632 mi. (one way)

This sounds like a great run but I don't think I'll make this one:(

Have a great time!

Ratpuke · 12-05-05, 01:48 AM

Oh, come on. That's less than I did in Nov. for Surf N Turf.

calamaridog · 12-05-05, 05:13 AM

I'm impressed you drove all the way to Pismo!

If you do this event next year too, I may just come North.

Ratpuke · 12-05-05, 03:28 PM

But I also did it in 2003 in my 42. Does that count?

bull · 12-31-05, 02:54 AM

Is this route drivable in the winter? or does a fella have to go another route?

lumpy70 · 12-31-05, 09:12 AM

The route to River Shiver? Yes it's driveable. There are no ice roads which may melt on you so you can't get across to the Great White North.

Come on down (or up, I guess) to Canada. Better beer.

Craig.

Yup, that's probably the best route for you; that's the route I would take from Vancouver. Bad conditions can close the Coquihalla (between Hope and Kamloops) and the section along Revelstoke-Golden-Banff can get ugly, but they try hard to keep it open.

bull · 01-02-06, 04:09 PM

Anyone heading up from Vancouver BC?

Greg_B · 01-02-06, 06:32 PM

Yup, there are a few of us. You are welcome to join up if the dates work for us all. When we get closer we should have a better count and know plans.

bull · 01-03-06, 04:29 PM

Sounds good. I will send out a reminder end of January time frame.

Behemoth60 · 01-05-06, 12:16 PM

Just a friendly reminder that our Early Bird Registration is now closed, and there's only 26 more days to register. Check out your copy of the trails, and get your registration in TODAY while there's still time!

Peter Straub

bull · 01-06-06, 03:46 PM

Peter what is the current # of sign ups so far?

Behemoth60 · 01-09-06, 10:34 AM

How many sign-ups so far? ...About 1/2 our registrations have been filled during the 'early bird' registration period. Historically, we seem to have a flood of last minute registrations.

Peter Straub

lumpy70 · 01-25-06, 10:19 AM

Only seven more days till registration closes for the 2006 River Shiver.

Craig.

lowenbrau · 01-25-06, 11:18 AM

I just checked the registrations and we have room for a maximum of 12 more trucks. Personally, I don't care if any other people show up because, with about 50 people vying for the raffle prizes, my odds of winning something cool are really good. Our sponsors have been really good to us. We currently have way over $6000 worth of prizes!

We'd like to thank our major sponsors for the cool donations.

Man, I really gotta get up there for a shiver...if only I could convince my S/O that camping in the GWN in Feb is not as bad as the stories say :-)
