[VX KAT]

I'd be interested in bringing my mtn bike, but I'm thinking abou Vegas the weekend prior and I'm not sure where I'd leave it...

Where to leave it in Vegas or when you're in Moab?

Hi ABDragon...

I'd be interested in bringing my mtn bike, but I'm thinking abou Vegas the weekend prior and I'm not sure where I'd leave it...

...Sue is right, Red Rock room...HOWEVER, Red Rock also has a dedictated "Bike Shed " for locking them up.
As for Vegas, "Valet Park it "..seriously..I've done it at the Imperial Palace, I assume other will....cost me $5 for 3 days ...and peace of mind!

Cheers

Both hehe

[VX KAT]

Both hehe

There's a few VXers in Vegas, maybe they could keep it in their garage?
And in Moab, can leave it in one of the VXers' rooms, like mine.
Nova isn't on the forum that much recently, so email would prob be best there.
I met up with both Jim and Nova in August for the calendar shoot, great guys.

No one likes to sit in the dirt before they get back into their truck... Plain and simple.
Good catch dub.

It's settled!!!! My previous engagement has solved itself in one day instead of 9 weeks. So I leave here on the 10th and arrive at the stoop sometime on the 12 (when ever I get my fat Canadian *** out of bed)
Can't wait to see everyone again and can't wait to see new faces.

life? death? Does CA have D.P.?

[nocturnalVX]

If you need an excuse to extend your stay in Moab...

Cece & I are checking out on the 12th, and would LOVE to spend a little time with the VX fam before heading out. Jo and (maybe) Mark are going to get in on the 11th... How about YOU?

[ND92]

nd92 (Stefan if i recall?) when are you bringing your fat *** back to Canada? maybe we could convoy

Im leaving on the 18th sometime, maybe get a quick trail in before I leave and then probably get into Canerduh by the 20th.

life? death? Does CA have D.P.?

I wish CA had D.P it would make life a lot better. But its 2 Degree M with Prole at 10yrs

[ABDragonVX]

thanks for the info on the bike stuff. sounds like the list is built for people who plan to 4x4 hehe. nd92 (Stefan if i recall?) when are you bringing your fat *** back to Canada? maybe we could convoy
plan to date for me hangs in the balance...depending on if my girlfriend has to work mothers day. plan A is vegas then moab if she can get out of work. plan B involves moab after mothers day and if we can fit it in we`d like to see zion national park.

~ anyone know how much it will cost per night at the stoop?

Good news!!!

Depends on the room but plan for around $60-$70/night with the VX meet discount.
