    I wonder if that comes with a lid? I'd have to get a bed rug to hide it, if so. But, dang! That is a great idea for stashing stuff!

    Guess who just talked to defined engineering and potentially set up a group buy for us for them? This guy. Don't worry I told him it'd be a little bit before we could do anything but I'd encourage you guys to check out their products. I'm fairly certain I'm going to get their shackles, rear frame crossmember and the drop in storage from Michael down there. Cool guy and super helpful!

    In other news do we want another mid day weekend meet or weekday evening? Or some other combo? It seemed like we had a better turnout for dinner at Mooses tooth but it could have been just a fluke.

    I say a combo of both would be cool if we could swing it, like meet up noonish time frame go on an afternoon snow run then grab an early dinner somewhere idk?

    I liked the lunch meet since there was actually daylight... but the dinner meet is probably more convenient.



    Thank you for sharing your awesome networking skills with us! :D

    Suttons a pretty good idea. I know there wasnt any snow out that way last week but since this recent dumping i havent been so im sure its full of powder now :) also theres a really cool place out in hatchers pass that could accomodate all tacomas up till about the 7 mile in point where it would be questionable i think. But really cool place!

    i actually enjoy the sunday lunch idea. And to think of it, theres a few places (like the ale house) we could swing in for brunch then keep going on to sutton for the afternoon run :)

    I'm Down for Sutton. Although Baby Girl will have just arrived, so I may have my hands tied. I like that we get these ideas going and scheduled in advance. It helps us all schedule it in advance.
