Annual OR/WA TSF Camping and Wheeling Shindig

hmmmm...No more coaching of baseball, schedule open for wheeling...will have to keep an eye on this thread.

I do like to party!!! And wheel.

 

Sup people?!

Fixed.

'scuse me? How many times did I suggest we go out? Hmph!

I was actually thinking about going over a day early just to ride.

 

Ok everyone, we are doing sign-ups a bit different this year: For some of us, this is the one chance we get to meet up with guys we've been wheeling with for around 10 years. We wanted to give some priority to these individuals - however, we also didn't want bailers expecting they have guaranteed status. Last year, we had 4 rigs show up, despite a promising list, and having to turn some people away that could have come.
So, for this year we offered some spots early. From here out, we will fill the roster like this:

1. Priority spots: If you were present last year, you get first dibs at a spot. You get a week to commit, or you auto forfeit and become part of the general pool.
2. General Pool: If you were not present last year, this is you. These are the spots we are filling right now.
3. The Abbhorrent: If you reserved a spot and pulled a no-show, this is you. You are like the people in the airport begging to get on the plane. I understand stuff comes up, but we have to make it fair. For this year, the slate is clean and I haven't recorded any names on the naughty list.

Now on with the show! below is the roster so far. If you see your name, please help me fill in the blanks.
We've been doing this for enough years and with GPS being a thing, I don't know if there's really a need or desire for caravans, but I left it in just to see.

 

This has been my fault with some commitment happening the same exact day you plan something

I have all-day training at work for the whole week, it even vetoed out the vacation day I was going to take for the 8th. I'm guessing I'm going to be pretty mush on Friday, so I'm going to take 4 wheels for my own safety.
I have a front countershaft nut that needs to go on the bike tomorrow night, and after that I'll see if we can get a bike version of this happening this year. I'm totally maxed on vacation days, but I get banker holidays so there's lots of 3 day weekends for me... or just a regular weekend.

 

jammdogg is in. Baseball is done by then, and I have weekends free!

 

please put me for green-triple black @Chickenmunga , feeling a little adventurous.

 

sigh, it's been how many years and I still gotta do this... what day/time are you arriving, what day/time are you leaving, I assume you are camping.

You are in the right spot. I assume you know how to get your way over, but you might be first there unless @snowgod06 beats you. What days will you be attending? All you said was Friday on FB.
I don't know what a 3+ rating is. You can either get an idea based on the trail examples I linked from the first post, or get an idea from my breakdown:
green - no mods needed. Trails would have some exposed roots and perhaps some obstacles that would require at least a car with good tire placement to get over.
blue - mods are nice, but not needed if you are careful. Tight corners, some slight off camber possible, rocks, and stumps. Some areas might need spotting to get through
black - mods most likely required. Skids and sliders very helpful. Everything a blue has, but more and bigger. Rock fields and definite spotting opportunities.
double or triple black start getting into needing 35s or advanced skill, or really demand dedicated trail vehicles.

sign me up!

@MaxxTRD @NorthwestCruiser @chipsnsalsa get in on this.

EDIT: head down from WA Friday after work through Sunday. Looking for Green - Black....Black 2 (potentially, never been so I'd have to see what I'm working with)

 

Unfortunately I won’t know until that week if I can.. I leave the following Sunday for corporate training and depends how much stuff I have left to do. :/

 

Ok I’m on board now so I’m blue-black, Friday through Sunday and Hillsboro caravan.

 

I completely understand! Figured if you were available it’d be a good time
