Yes! Since I'll be trailering this year there will room for the old XL350R... hmmm . If I was rolling solo I'd bring it for sure..

Planned on bringing one of the mini bikes cough cough

I am going to bring some beers over one night and pick your brain about this. I always enjoy upgrades when it comes to brakes. I picked fellow mudder's brain who used to engineer Wilwood to get my current set up. Always looking for a better stopping power idea.

Argh... I really hate to be making this call, but I’m not going to make it to SAS. I have back issues I’ve been nursing since March, and while I’ve improved greatly, after a lot of driving over this passed weekend I had to be honest with myself that 27+ hours driving is going to be hell without a copilot to share driving duties, etc.

Spinal fusion surgery going down this September, so I should be good to go next year.

How everything turns out for the best man. Backs are serious injuries and you made a great choice taking it easy instead. Speedy recovery!

I am going to come out there one day. Always been interested in seeing the NW.

Hey gang, I totally missed the boat on SAS this year. Life got busy, customer builds, Corona stuff, etc and it just fell off the radar. I'm hoping maybe I can stop by on Tuesday or Wednesday to at least say hi to some old friends. I may even be able to work it out that it's an on-the-way stopover while I'm heading out to Moab to deliver a pretty sweet LJ70/Cummins R2.8 project we're just finishing up (Builds - Machito the LBJ70). Anybody got a spare few feet at their campsite if I need a place to crash and set up a tent for a night?

I got an RV site and it is just me and my 60. So plenty of room if you need a spot to crash in.

Anyway to register for those who have been added from the waitlist? Interested in raffles and etc

Best looking one yet imo. #yearofthe40

 

[mesa man]

I gotta have a bag of that Daniel, whole bean please. Nice design!

 

[Manitou Decline]

So the question is this.

Run the new tires ATs 37x12.5R17 or keep the MTs 345x75R16 on for running SAS?

Personally, I'd run the old tires, then put on the new ones after SAS.

Well looks like I will keep the MTs on it. Looking at the forecast for Ouray for the next week.... it's going to be wet.

 

[8cam]

I'm glad I just got MTs on!

 

[The Jade Bean]

Casey got the coffee and raffle prizes!
