Training Sign Up for June

[JohnVee]

Is anyone going to pass through Pittsboro on their way to URE? @weejub has an FSM for me there. I will be at URE Friday late afternoon to pick up a mudship item for somebody so it would be ideal if someone could grab the FSM on their way down. I won't be wheeling or camping, just there doing my part to help transport something 300 miles so I'm hoping that schedules can align for that widow of time.

BTW @weejub text me your payment info.

 

[weejub]

John - I apologize for not getting this sent earlier If anyone can do this it would be great!

 

[GregFrench]

Can someone post the address/directions to the camping area?

 

[jamesurq]

I’ll send it to you Greg

Also, remember to bring gloves if you have them, to handle recovery equipment, etc.

 

[jamesurq]

Just arrived. The driveway hill is pretty washed out. Use caution - especially folks with an RV

 

[Boomstick]

I will not be able to make it tomorrow... that should open up a training spot for anyone interested

 

[jamesurq]

Sorry to hear. I’ve removed/adjusted the list. Took the training today. VERY worthwhile. Learned a lot in a little amount of time. OEX are great folks and they deserve all the credit for the push to keep their training available.

This mornings class lineup. With some light drizzle this morning it will be interesting to see who does well and who struggles. Also watching how old school stacks up to a brand new TRDPRO 4runner

And now the wife can't stop laughing at me. Not gonna live this one down anytime soon.

Did you make it now? ;P

 

[TigerCruiser]

I am out for this afternoons training due to forecasted rain. But, we’ll be there tomorrow for trail rides.

 

[Boomstick]

Did you make it now? ;P

No... no I did not. I should, however, get the honorary attendee award for dumbest move or the most eager. Just saying...

And look, Karen! No need to contact the manager! Trucks are 10ft apart!

Thanks @izzyandsue and the rest of the OEX Team for such great time! Shoutout to @jamesurq too!

 

[jamesurq]

Those of you that enjoyed the training and private trail rides - please feel free to send an e-mail or a letter to the folks that run OEX and let them know how much you appreciate what they did for us.

Maybe that will help counteract the complaint that someone felt the need to call in.... As of right now, there's a mixed taste in their mouth (understandably) . It's always nice working on relationships with companies on behalf of an organization - not so nice when other members of that organization crap all over it.
