at this rate we may have to draw straws for who gets to ride shotgun
Big Horn Lodge reservations made for 22-27 MAR; leaving 20 MAR AM. Getting the 265's mounted on my old wheels so I need to coordinate hauling my 285 wheel-set out to MOAB.
My 3RZ thanks you!
My 3RZ thanks you!
Rob,
Has there been any discussion regarding trail choices? I know this trip won't be like Cruise Mobab or Easter Heap Swarming with over booked trails, but just curious if anyone was teaming up to take on a particular run?

Thanks Rob - will do. Getting the old AT's mounted on the OEM rims tomorrow.
. Thank's.
Ipor fzj-40 in moab???
Okay... Can we start a poll?
Who here thinks the IPOR TEAM can get a running FZJ-40 on the trails of Moab by 3/23/09?
Check out the IPOR thread in the HARDCORE Corner if you have not done so.

Trail Options for Moab Trip
For anyone who planning on attending the Moab Pilgramage and has not done so, please check out this thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/va-bay-blue-...moab-trip.html . I am sure plenty of people have ideas of which trails they would like to run and this is is the spot to discuss our options. Otherwise, we might have Cam out in front bushwacking his way from Moab to Bryce Canyon...
I am sure Rob would try to be the voice of reason but Lance would just egg him on.....

I need to do as much as I can on the cheap for this one. Recommendations?

There are a bunch of us in similar circumstance. Pack a loaf of bread and a few cans of SPAM... mmmm... SPAMwiches...
I think those of us staying in the campground are doing so more for the experience more so than the cost, but it is cheaper.
You could also turn your socks inside out every other day and use half as many socks, thereby reducing your laundry expenses.
HTH,

I think the lodge is about $20 more per day, has hot showers and bathroom in room, fridge, microwave, ect, middle of town, can walk anywhere, you do not have to supply sheets make bed, clean ect. They come standard with two queen beds. unless you are funny, not funny ha ha... for that they have king size beds 
Plus they have Smitty's steak house on site!!!!!
It is up to you, We have a special price at the Big Horn Lodge, if you call up give them my name "Rob Matzell" and the Bay to Blue Ridge Cruisers club to get that rate, I know rooms were filling up.
Everyone has different budgets, comfort levels ect, You can stay wherever you would like, as long as you meet up each morning for the trails. We will pick a meeting spot once we get there and I would suggest meeting at the same spot each day so there is no confusion.
It is getting close, see you there.

Last I checked the hotel was $35 more per night than renting a CABIN at the campground. If you plan to camp in a tent and it's even less expensive... unless you're funny, not funny ha-ha... if that's the case then you should stay in the hotel. Rob has looked into that and says they have king beds for that.
