Moab ZuZoo XI 2008

[ZEUS]

Huge difference! Blingtastic!

[Triathlete]

The clock goes tick tock....only 109 days to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pepino]

anyone from around wisconsin wanna get together and drive all the way there?

[Triathlete]

100 days....yep, thats right just a bit over 3 months!

Any ideas yet for the VX run?

[CrnCnn]

So what is the schedule usually like?

[Triathlete]

Schedule? Most of the runs start around 8ish...some earlier, some later depending on the length of the trail and what time the trail leader wants to wake up! The runs meet at different places depending on the trail location. Once back in town there will probably be a designated place for everyone to get together and discuss the next days adventure and make plans. The VX run will have all the info posted here so everyone will know in advance where and when to meet! Thats how we roll!

[Triathlete]

So, here are some options for the VX run with a link to info on each. These trails are all 3.5 rated or less. Lets get some opinions going. I know Todd has his wheels in motion also (and always comes up with a good one). Even if none of these trails are used we can at least have some feedback and that might help Todd with knowing what everyone like....ie scenery, challenge, etc.
No one will have to worry...we take good care of everyone! In a the 2 ZuZoo VX runs I have participated in no VX has been placed in harms way. We have some good spotters than will get you through!

Okay, Red Rock 4 Wheelers have started using a 1-10 rating system (vs. the old 1-5+). So a trail rating of 5-6 is equal to a 3-3.5.

Well, for me, I would love the VX run to be on something like EH, but not EH since we did that one last year. So, something with the same difficulty level would be perfect. But, if we do EH this year, let's try to get our VXes on the way earlier so we can make it to the confluence....

Gold Bar Rim was enjoyable two yrs. ago, whatever trail is chosen, it should within the abilities of a stock VX with a first time off-roader at the wheel.
Who wants to step up & volunteer to lead us into the promised land?

[Triathlete]

I believe Todd has gotten the nod! He knows the area and history very well (and will only get us lost a few times)
I will be more than happy to bring up the rear or mid point.

For those first timers, If you don't have one already, pick up a CB. It will make all the trails much more enjoyable. You will be able to hear the trail discription, history, communicate with everyone and we usually do introductions while in route. Doesn't need to be anything outragous. My first year I used a $10 ebay special handheld...I have upgraded now!

Tom...Todd...Triathlete...as long as their name starts with "T", it's good wif me.

[Triathlete]

Ummmm, I don't know the trails up there that well. That and the fact that I tend to get lost on trails I do know...4 hour trails become 12. However I do have a GPS now! If only I can figure out how to use it before May!

naughty:

That was me last year!!!! I think I will probably stick to those trails too!!! Maybe try some of the obstacles this time around...and move a little faster...

[nocturnalVX]

Maybe try some of the obstacles this time around...
