The french call that the *Camion Balai* = *Broom Wagon*

Thanks for that service, its good to know that at least one mechanic will sweep up.

I started a new job in February and one of the negotiated items was time off for the Rubithon. The FJ40 needs a little TLC but we'll be ready. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.

 

[Dunkane]

making new friends and offroading are the 2 best things !

..........beside a few other things we dont post pictures from or even talk about..........

I agree but always look forward to reunite with the friends i already have and usually there will be a bunch of new ones after TLCA events.

Looks like I wil making the trip this year. I will be on the Thrusday straight thru run... Its been a while...

 

[pilotuku]

Woohoo! Just sent my application in and payment sent!

Just finished the front locker install and the 4.88's, now we're putting my 4x4Labs rear together....

Since it'll be my first time, i'm taking the wagon run...

 

[MountNGoat]

[TRT2]

Wow, Dave is showing up. I better warn Cindy...

Looking forward to seeing you Dave. Yes, it has been awhile but I am sure most folks have forgotten.

 

[Devil's Slide Doug]

We are in, 3 of us. Doug, Michelle and Dominik signed up for the Thursday breakfast run in the 80.

 

[Bad Coco]

Only 2 more days to get your registrations in for the chance to win an extra grand prize ticket for the month of April.

Also, only 24 more days to get those registrations in to ensure you get a shirt and meals.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in June!

In! How many people are signed up for the straight through on Friday run?

@Bad Coco I did the online submission, did it make it? I didn't see any notification that it was successful.

No sir, nothing received. If you are having any problems, you can print it and mail it in also. So far we have about 5 on Friday.

 

[Mace]

I'll give it another try, then mall it in.

Looking forward to it!

Looking for a little direction. Is the Wagon Run a multi day run? How about the Double Locker? How would a 80 on 37s, locked, armor, etc. fair on the Double Locker run? I'd like to maximize my time on the trail since I will be there from Phoenix.....thanks

 

[Cruiserdrew]

The Wagon Run starts Wednesday morning, camps at Buck Island that night, travels to Rubicon springs on Thursday, camps there Friday and Saturday, and exits up Cadillac on Sunday.

Call Mudrak about the double locker run. It's roughly the same with less predictable timing.

From Phoenix or not, you can spend as much time there as you like.

You'll have fun on either.

So, we'll actually camp at the Springs for 3 nights on the wagon run, correct? Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights?

I'm not leading this year, Rick Cortez is, but I'm pretty sure that will be the schedule. This year with my ever changing schedule, I'm camping at Buck for 3 days, then camping at the springs for 3 days. At least for now.

Officially Sunday isn't part of any run, but in the past, most of the wagon run has followed me out on Sunday morning, about 6am!
