It might be cool to meet other Tacoma owners in the SL valley. I shot this thread to the Utah Members thread to see what will happen.

 

I’m interested. What do you have in mind?

 

I'm in. I can come to SLC on Thursday, Friday and some Saturday depending on my work schedule. Let us know.

 

Could be fun.

 

How about this guys?

These pics are from last year. The turn outs this year are a lot bigger. Skylines, Ferraris, and Tacomas?

I am there most sat's with my prelude. There is a good diversity of cars at the meet.

 

Sweet man. I think we could have some fun. There are a ton of trucks in the area. Just wish more were on TW.

 

I'm thinking we could meet up, show off our trucks, then maybe go on a trail run. Know any good trails that are decently mellow?

 

We could give it a shot to see who shows up.

 

Sounds good to me. Just give me a time and date.

The best / closest place I can think of with plenty of mild to wild trails would be Five Mile Pass http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Mile_Pass.
It's 20 miles west of Lehi on the Utah County and Tooele County line. I have only take my truck out there once but have been on a lot of the trails with my dirt bike on other occasions.

Another fun place is the road that goes from the B in Bountiful along skyline drive to the towers on Francis Peak (AKA Farmington peak). However as of 5/29/10 it’s impassable due to snow.

These are only suggestions, living in the great state of Utah we have a lot of options.

Here are some pics from the areas I've mentioned.

Does anybody else have any suggestions?

One on many tailings piles. Lots of mines out there.

That looks awesome. I would be down for sure. I am kind of a pansy in my truck as far as trails go because I would be sick if something happened to her. Wanna get together and check some stuff out in the next couple of weeks then we can plan a bigger trip?

 

I'd even be down to explore on dirt bikes too.

 

I know what you mean, I’ve yet to have my truck in a situation that damage was real a concern. Let me know when you when you want to go and we can hopefully work something out and get some others to come with. Five mile is fun on a dirt bike because there are so many trails and a lot of cool stuff to see. I can make most any time even a weekday if I have enough notice (lot's of vacation time to burn).


Where do you ride at?

Anyone else in Utah ride dirt bikes or quads interested in a ride?

 

Me neither and I don't plan to haha. I'm open on Monday afternoons, Wednesday mornings, Friday mornings, and Saturdays all day.

I haven't ridden much this year but I usually ride Jordan River or out at Deseret Peak in Tooele.

Where do you usually ride at?

 

I don’t have much track time in on my bike, I need to go because I would really like to get better on the jumps. I spend most of my time on trails above the B, Bear Lake, Five Mile, The Knolls and of course Little Sahara.
Sorry to have jacked this thread on a dirt bike tangent.

Let’s get some Utah Tacoma’s out and go on a trail run. Five Mile would probably be the best and anybody could go even with a stock setup.

 

I drove pass five miles pass and stop at Mercur and Opphir couples weeks ago. I was planning to offroad at Five miles pass, too many people and are in the way. So I didn't offroad that day, I also trying to offroad on Big B, it was closed too.

I think I am free on June 19th, plan on that day??

 

I should be available for something on the 19th.

How does that day work for everybody else? Do we just want to do a meet and greet or go out on some trails and or both?

 

I am free until 6pm on the 19th. I'm down for whatever you guys want.

 

Man I wish you guys could pick a Saturday or Sunday. I would love to do a meet-n-greet with everyone!!

 

Come out, the 19th is a Saturday.
