907 Monthly tAKoma meets!

I've learned to deal with mine because I didn't find out about the squeaking till after lol. Check out the squeaky Dakar thread

https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/squeaky-dakars-any-advice-from-others-with-the-dakars.156353/

 

Just scrolled through there and saw the solutions. Looks like I'll start with ZipTies and bicycle tubes. My old 97 Tacoma was held together by those anyways

 

Zip ties are essential to any build

 

Meet at the end of this month or beginning of next? We need another before it starts to get cold, trail run?

 

Yeah lets go do a trail run on mystery creek road.

 

I believe that there's a gate at the entrance to the road unless there's another way. I've heard about the trail before and really wanna check it out

 

How would a stock truck do on that? I've never been.

 

I've heard it can be easy but you can find it on google lots of pictures and a video

 

Cool, I'll check it out

 

After looking at a mystery creek video. I wouldn't feel comfortable taking a stock taco on it. Lol

 

From what I've seen it just depends on the time of year and if it rained a lot I'm sure on a dry summer day it's possible

 

The gate is open now. I haven't been on the whole thing yet. Who wants to go?

 

I'm assuming that's down south where most of you guys seem to be at?

I was planning on heading up past the Brooks Range this weekend but the weather forecast looks like rain.

 

Mystery Creek Road is on the Kenai Peninsula.

I was actually planning on driving to the Arctic circle sometime within the first few weeks of next month.

 

The dalton is super dangerous when raining, definitely still doable though, the weather just changes like crazy up there

 

with the title

 

It is pretty clever

 

This monthly meetup/trail run thread is a joke. I have been posting here for over a year now trying to get people to meetup for trail runs at various places and different times of the year and not once has anybody ever agreed to meet up or even pick a date or time. I think I've only seen one meetup happen here in the last 15 months and it was in a parking lot somewhere in Anchorage.

 

Sadly I agree with you, this is definitely the least active group on all of TW. The biggest meet I've been to was in April and it was about 5 tacos and we all went camping out at Jim Creek, that was a really great time though. I post quite often as well trying to get meets going, if we can get a few people to agree to a meet I will definitely attend.
