    I may be going to Ovexpo in Lieu of Moab
    (not that it's at the same time, but I have to choose one or the other)

    My new obsession is Overland Travel, mostly reading people's experiences, build logs etc. But Overland Travel, and Motorcycle Dependent travel is neato... yep.

    Billy Will you be going? I think it's only a few hours from you.

    You would have a non-VX lead the run???

    Anyway, there is no way I could fill the airwaves with fun facts like Todd...I'm usually too worried about staying on the correct trail.

    Oh no, you mean to tell me there aren't neat little park signs saying things like:

    "Fins and Things" fine seafood dining ahead 500yds.

    "Dome Plateau" Please don't feed the bald headed old men

    "Colorado River" 500yds (straight down)

    "Kane Creek" feel free to use crutches

    "Hell's Revenge" tacos and other mexican food next exit

    "Poison Spyder" Ahead 50yds...keep your windows rolled up

    "Rest Area" next exit (next Rest Area 5 miles)

    "Slower Traffic and Jeeps right lane only"

    "Amber Alert" Missing Proton VX w/too much off-set
    warning driver has dementia and will insist he is not lost....
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    you may not be too good at filling the radio waves with information. but you definately know your way around.... you havent steered me wrong every time i've followed you yet.

    dont worry... with 20 VX'ers im sure we can fill the radio waves with useless info to keep everyone entertained.

    Since the rig count has (vx / all other Isuzus) flip-flopped in the last few years maybe we need to change it to the Non-VX run now!

    Billy I was referring to OvExpo. It's in Amado, Santa Cruz County, Arizona.

    http://ovexpo.com/Home.html

    I'm very excited...

    And it's April 16-18th... The problem is time off work... So I'll only be able to hit one or the other.

    Thats my back yard...I ride by bike in that area often...not much of a wheeling area in my book. I could recommend some much better trails. In my opinion...the area has nothing on Moab. If you search the 4xwire you will find a great write up a few of the zu guys did enroute to Moab that was a multi day linking of some trails in the Utah area that ended in Moab. t was from a few years ago.

    If you do come down make sure and let me know so maybe we can get together. I will round up the locals!
