TLCA OFFICIAL PIC THREAD -- Live from Cruise Moab!!

[wngrog]

Dang Luke, thats crazy. Moab Rim during the day is not fun, night run is nuts. I took my HJ61 up there 3 years ago and thats the last time for that run.

I took Julie and the kids to the top on Thursday night in the 100 series after scouting it in the Buggy. There is only one tough spot on the whole trail and I got very lucky and walked right up it. It was still light, but I think night would be easier on those that don't like drop-offs.

Gratuitous IH8MUD Shots

[cougarfreak]

The rest of the pictures from Thursday's Kane Creek, Friday's Behind the Rocks, and Saturday's Metal Masher runs are uploaded to my site www.cougarfreakphoto.com and ready for your viewing and purchasing pleasure.

Here are some from our Friday run to Behind the Rocks with Christo and the Norcal 80's.

Maybe it's just me but if you are selling your Moab photos maybe you should be posting this in the vendor section instead of the CM06 photos thread.

Thank you kindly, sir. Speed racer has a fantastic resemblance to this Venezuelan gentleman I know... and boy can he wheel an 80!!!!!!

 

[cougarfreak]

I'm not against this. I appoligize if I have misposted. This seemed like a logical place to post. No one has to buy to view. Further, if anyone has shots of me I'd be happy to trade if I have some of you.

Forums like this are for sharing.... ideas, information, tech tips, photos, videos, etc. I respect your efforts to make money selling your photos but if everyone on 'Mud took your approach (trade or buy) then these forums would quickly die. [e.g. I'll tell you how to replace starter contacts for $10]

The vendor sections are for those who choose to attempt to make money selling us their stuff.

BTW, I saw your 4-Runner at Moab and really like the Exo-cage. Nicely done!

[cougarfreak]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... you don't HAVE TO buy anything to view the pictures. I don't feel this is out of the realm of how you do things here at IH8MUD. The only difference is if you'd like to purchase some you have that option too. Again, nobody HAS to buy anything to view... BTW Thanks for the props on the cage. It has been a fun project.

Chad did you get any shots of my smurf blue 40 (topless) on Mirror Gulch on the Metal Masher run?

THanks man.

chad, i think it's probably in the presentation. i appreciate the chance to view the photos but i think the philosophy of mud is that the plug for your commercial venture has to be subordinate to providing something of interest or value to mudders for free so you need to pitch it that way. maybe next time say something like "I am selling my photos of CM06 but if you don't mind a watermark you may enjoy flipping through them free of charge..." i's a pretty grey area but that's my take on forum decorum

 

[cougarfreak]

Gotcha, again I appoligize for my capitalist presentation (although I didn't think "your viewing and purchasing pleasure" was a huge plug for sales). I will adjust accordingly. :whoops:

Yes, I did, sorry about the oversight. I just added them (1691 and 1693) to the gallery. Feel free to view them here: http://www.shutterfly.com/progal/album.jsp?aid=768a5498cf456fcea5fd

Sweet, I thought you had to get a shot, I thought I was going to run you over on that obstacle...

Nice shots, you've got PM.

[green_machine]

Hey Z80, those are awesome!

Anayone else having the Widowmaker video skip on them? It starts, and then it just hangs for me.
