    Yup, that's the one. Yes, she does really care. Guess I was just frustrated since she kept calling when I was on the trail and talking and talking and asking for an ETA....and I had no idea how much further/how long etc...plus ya can't drive with one hand and speakerphone was useless.

    WOOT!! Got my room at The Stoop reserved.

    Got a double queen room so hoping to find a room mate to help defray costs. Anyone interested in rooming for the week (or should I just call back and get the king room)? Checking in on Sunday the 13th and checking out on Saturday the 19th.

    I have references from former Moab roomies (you know who you are).

    I've said it before...

    Even if they closed all the trails, I think there would still be a few of the "Fam Members" that would show up every year...it's that tight...

    AND...that much fun.......

    haha i dont think that would be a very 'family friendly'/'easy' VX run billy...

    just a couple ideas, i wouldnt mind checking out-

    Top of the world
    Gold Bar Rim
    Fins and Things
    Elephant Hill would be cool, but its a drive and I think you have to pay park entrance.
    Dome Plateau is an incredible trail, but you definately 'earn' some moab pin stripes there, so I know some of our family with the more 'pretty' VX's wouldnt like that much.

    I don't know how much my opinion really matters since I may or may not be able to make it to Moab this year, but I wouldn't go for Gold Bar Rim if there are any stock VXers; I went on that one last year and had a small panic attack when I got to the waterfall obstacle. Ended up parking my girl on the side of the trail, and rode with Dave for the rest of the way. Not a real friendly trail for the novice (or for those prone to anxiety and without any meds on board, lol). Fins and Things went just fine though, and I have no opinion on the others, as I haven't been on them...yet.

    ...personally, I would take on Gold Bar Rim again though. Need to win my woman card back from the trail that robbed me of it

    Alright, so I am new to the VX forum. I am on my 2nd VX and haven't gotten to know anyone else that has one. I am thinking that the Moab meet would be a great adventure! Are there any other VX going from Minneapolis?

    I understand that stock VX would be able to hold its own, but I have 913s on the way. Are there any other recommendations for a first timer to Moab?
