6th Annual 100s in the Hills - Silverton, CO July 29-31 2016

[Get outside]

We had 4 rigs leaving Denver this morning, @dubitup @DanInDenver @lstamatis and us. Half way through the drive we split in two groups going different routes. The Albeyta family (dubitup) and us headed to Gunnison where we had some good tasting pizzas n beers at High Alpine Brewing Co. They stayed to spend the night there as we kept rolling. We are staying at the KOA in Ouray for the night after exhausting the little ones in the hot springs pool then really tasty birthday dinner @ the Brickhouse downtown.
Will head to Silverton early am.

Well after cancelled flights and changed arrival airports I will finally be in on the road in about an hour and swinging through Durango on my way in. Ready to get moving.

Stopping by cruiser outfitters in about two hours if anyone needs parts. Picking up some wheelbearings for my brother i'm making for Silverton. I'll check this thread before the cruiser outfitters in case anyone needs anything.

This plane can't get to Denver soon enough. 3:30 seems like an eternity away before I can make the last bit of the drive to Silverton.

You're leaving denver at 3:30? You might actually be later than me. I'm nervous about getting a spot at the camp.

I'll be lucky to leave the Denver airport by 4. Plane arrives at 3:34 and then there's unboarding and luggage pickup

Thankfully @dubitup and @paflytyer offered to have the camping gear they're loaning me for the night set up when I get there.

Should I buy wood in Denver or Silverton?

 

[paflytyer]

Is anyone still at home with a rear control arm/lower link available?

It's a beautiful day in Silverton!!!
Be jealous everyone. Just messing around, be safe out there.
A word of advice: bring as much mosquito repellent as you can!!!!

Marshall from AZ is stopped just south of the construction on 550 between Durango and Silverton. Stopped truck and now it won't start, possibly vapor locked. He's waiting for it to cool down and try to restart. Any other ideas?

Many many setbacks, but I think I am almost ready to go! Will be leaving steamboat by 6 and then be there asap! Sorry if I'm the guy rolling in at 11pm....what is the agenda for tomorrow morning?

 

[abuck99]

So wished we could be there- have fun!

Sit down, have some water and wait 45min then don't fill up past 3/4 of a tank.

We've had lots of delays too. Looking like midnight at the earliest for us.

Hey guys, I'm here in town...just grabbing food at Teller House. Unfortunatly I blew some section of the exhaust and my truck sounds like a Harley with no mufflers. I'm hoping Triangle Garage can fix me up first thing in the am so I don't miss anything.

I'm about 12-1 now. Just setting cruise where the Crusher feels best. Sleep will be quite nice!
