    Hey everybody, I think SocalTacomas did this last summer and had a HUGE turnout with over 40 trucks. Hopefully we can get a good turnout on this trip!

    Who: Anybody and everybody
    What: Night run, just running the usual spots and having fun wheeling.
    When: Saturday July 5th, 6:00pm meetup
    Where: Ranger station/bathrooms off Main St. Ocotillo Wells
    Why: Do I need a reason?


    It's been almost 9 months since I was last in Ocotillo, and I miss it! It was a nice 85 degrees last year by nightfall, and we had a ton of trucks just out there having a good time, shooting the shit and wheeling around. It was difficult to organize so many trucks, so I say we all just do what we want and be in the area. Some guys want to hit the sand, others just running trails/washes...whatever!

    We pretty much dispersed around 1:00am, but I went on with Airdog and Krans until about 4:00am and drove back to OC by sunrise. I suggest sleeping during the day a bit on Saturday if possible to keep yourself awake.


    So who's in???

    Pics from last year:
