Bookending my weekend with events in Arlington, U2 tonight, the Rangers on Monday.

 

need to make multiple votes allowed. cant vote on a date and ride time

25th is good for me, a month to try and ride a bit and get some endurance back

 

Done!

 

Anyone need a set of factoryleafsprings before i take them to the scrap yard..came of a 2012 4cyl @hoarder23..if anyone wants them let me know...free by the way unless you feel the need to give me beer

 

Usually after I ride I just want to limp home and take a shower. So id prefer after the meet. 25th works great though.

 

you ever rode a trail after slamming beers and eating? I voted before the meet

 

Touche

 

Theres a 160 mi almost completely off road route from CO to Moab. It says its like a 9hr trail, I learned about it last year when I was planning my Colorado trip with the thought of going to Moab. I decided not to attempt it since I realized pretty shortly into the trip I wasn't even close to prepared if something went wrong but I plan on doing it the next time I go to Moab. Its called "Rimrocker" heres a link: https://www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/1843-rimrocker

 

Well that website sucks.... makes me sign up before being able to read the entire page.

Will check that out that... seems interesting and seems doable honestly. Really depends on time allowed on the way there.

 

I didnt look into the site, was just trying to find a link to it and remember the name of it. here it is on traildamage https://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=556

 

Awesome! Thanks.

Will really look into that as that may be a pretty good adventure to get to Moab.

 

Thats what I thought but since I went 1 month after buying my truck with no offroading experience, no mods, no protection and realizing I didnt even have adequate camping gear I just took the main roads to get to moab. That trip is what sent me on my way to modding my truck much faster than I was originally planning. I am hoping to make it out there again this year but theres so many places I want to go I'm not sure I'll have enough PTO this year.

 

Yea I hear yea. Moab is my main trip this year on top of going back to Tennessee as well over Labor day.

Next year... FJ Summit or Overland Expo will be on the list.

 

You can check out the website for the Utah back country discovery route. It's what a couple of the Wyoming guys did here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-m-u-d-trip-report-1000-miles-of-utah-dirt.476285/
