6th Annual AOAA Invasion - October 14-16, 2022

Come on by, have a beer, talk as much as you want to about trucks, wheeling and camping. If @TinyTech626 shows up we can talk about skinwalkers too.

This event started as a bunch of us deciding to do one more fall trip before it turned into proper winter camping, and has become a tradition. It's always been an "all brands welcome" event, I expect to collect my usual ration of friendly shit for showing up in a Gladiator, which I'm not going to wheel, and taking my dirt bike out.

Seriously: there is no level of professionalism or organization offered nor implied We set a date, get raffle donations (for American Heart Association), including a beer sponsor, and make a t shirt. Everything else is strictly You're On Your Own, but the whole thread always managed a nice buffet Saturday night, and a good time all weekend.

 

Well I just bought sliders and skids, so I guess I’m going full retard now haha.

 

It breaks my heart, but I am out of vacation days so I won't be joining on this year's discussion of yee naaldlooshii of the Dine...Next year however, hopefully I will be settled in with my part time job and full time job (as long as I get the one I reallllly want) and should be good to go.

 

Dislike, but good luck with the new job.

 

Said backcountry mechanic seminar....

 

What a freaking day that was!

Edit: now we're getting the t-shirt too!

 

Armor installed…maybe I’ll wash it before I show up. Probably not though. Just gotta install my midland radio, cut and install the fender flares, and I thiiiiink that’s it.

 

Big oof.

Swamped it?

 

What!? Not wheeling

I couldnt get off Friday. I get off work at 10:30pm, so it wasnt worth it to me to rush up there to wheel.

Guess ill be day drinking with @GarlicFarts

 

whos doing that? I volunteer @SR-71A

 

Y'all gonna come back from wheeling to us drunk and having a bonfire way too big, singing sea shanties and cooking octopus over the fire asleep by 3 PM.

 

That kid and his family are from the next town over from where I grew up as well, thought that was cool

 

Does the AOAA website look totally different to anyone else today? Was going to do the wavier but its different from last week

 

You still have time to install rock lights.

 

My train of thought:

Heh, funny

Hmm...Night wheeling

Hmm...do they allow you to go out there after dark?

Let me ask. You know, first let me do the obvious and check their website.

Hours...Hours...Ah! There they are....



....Oh.

So anyway, do they allow you out at night? Shut down at 7 or 8 regardless or something? Just curious, more than anything.

(I'm on bakers' hours today so I'm sloggin', and my brain is firing on 4 out of 5 cylinders).

 

I am so tired of wiring anything. Ive been adding fog lights on my motorcycle for the past 2 days. Finally got them 95% done..

 

No Im pretty sure I recall reading something on their old site last week about closing at dusk or maybe 5PM? Something like that. This new website is not very good.
