January AOP Ride (1/31 - 2/1)

I looked at the weather this morning and saw the same thing...weird how it completely changed from last night to this morning

 

[FJCRAWLER]

It'll be a muddy mess if it rains .

I'll look at it Thursday if it still shows rain I'll be out .

 

[TeddyBoy]

Yeah I'm in the same boat. Don't need to ride all the way up there just to sit int he rain or spin the tires.

 

[tgreco]

Well, it looks like the rain is inevitable at this point. WeatherUnderground is forecasting ~ 0.5 inches on Friday ending early Saturday morning. Is this a trip killer? Are there any other wheeling options the rain won't turn into complete slop?

 

[TeddyBoy]

between the rain and this damned cold I picked up yesterday I'd prefer to punt to the following weekend.

nice sliders by the way.

 

[tgreco]

I'll await responses from everyone else but I think I could swing next weekend.

The sliders turned out ok. It was my first shot at overhead/under truck welding. A couple of the welds might make the ghetto/hack threads but don't tell anyone. Looking forward to testing them out though.

If we move it, it'll finally give me a chance to get to work swapping my brakes.

[AuburnFJsexy]

Well the radar sure isnt looking good

I dont think I can go the next weekend, but dont let that stop yall...

....there's always Durhamtown!

not me. Schedule puts us over there in a couple months already anyway.

Well the radar sure isnt looking good

I dont think I can go the next weekend, but dont let that stop yall...

boo!

 

[AuburnFJsexy]

What about sweet talking Ralph into letting us do a day ride Saturday....

 

[TeddyBoy]

If it wasn't official before it is for me now. I'm out!!

 

[tgreco]

So what's the plan? Sounds like there are two options: postpone AOP until next weekend or try and find another spot for this weekend. I'm available and interested in either.

 

[robustbambi]

Let's move AOP to next weekend. If it's gonna rain up there, it's probably gonna rain wherever we go.

 

[FJCRAWLER]

I agree , see y'all next weekend .

 

[tgreco]

I'm in for next weekend.

 

[robustbambi]

first post edited with correct information.

 

[wagonteeth]

I might be able to make next weekend. Between Chocco and AOP, which is better/ funner/ least likely to tear my truck up?

 

[TeddyBoy]

I HATE being sick!!! Finally crawling out from under what i thought was going to be my death bed. Never knew how utterly stupid daytime TV is, unbelievable

Anyway, target set on AOP for Friday departure...again. Work schedule dictating an afternoon exodus right now.

 

[tgreco]

Still planning on a late arrival Friday night (~midnight). I shouldn't say it, but it looks like the weather is going to work out. Sunday may be a wash depending on when/if the rain comes in.

For Saturday night, do you all typically do a communal dinner? I'll contribute if so, or will make you all jealous while I eat my ramens all by myself.

Looking forward to it!
