Moab 'ZuZu VX - May 2013: 5/12/13 - 5/18/13

[Gizmo42]

I usually leave Aurora around 10-11am on saturday. Gives me a chance to sleep in a bit and still get there with time to set up camp and get some dinner. There is lots to do there from sight seeing on pavement all the way up to extreme stuff. Quite a few trails that are pretty easy and can be done with no problem in a stocker. I just spent a couple days there in my Volvo station wagon doing the touristy sight seeing stuff.

[VXorado]

How about a Russian member, folks? I will be in California in the first half of May... So - will you let me join you without a Vehicross?

Ok, I am going. I don't care what work says about it. Or the fact that I owe an enormous amount of taxes this year.

So, I need to book somewhere to stay, and I wanted to ask the Denver peeps (such as VXorado and PBkid) when they are heading out and if they want to convoy out together (safety in numbers....for mechanical reasons...I am reminded of the burning Jeep we had for just the beginning of one of our trail rides we did).

I think my dad wants to go too. He's retiring at the end of May, but already has Short-Timer's Disease.

What say you Denver dudes?

We'll be leaving Sunday- probably late morning

We have done a big Colorado Convoy before, but it seems to have broken down over the past few years with a few of us heading over at different times. I'm over in Carbondale and I'll be heading to Moab on Sunday afternoon/evening so if you want to head over then I can meet you in Glenwood Springs and we can convoy over from there.

That will work nicely for us. Unless something changes, we should plan on a convoy from Glenwood Springs.

Maybe you should leave a day later and join the convoy...

Hey Rado, I will joining the convoy on Sunday too.



I am still planning on staying in a campground. This is our tent, minus out the old Zu Amigo (RIp) and insert the vxsport. I am trying to find a pic of the sport combined with the tent. The Back end of the vehicle opens up thru a large opening into the tent. Its a great setup when it comes to camping.

Its going to be a long and lonely drive down for me this year. Not bad at 16 hours but still the longest haul i've done with hunter by myself. Hope I can convoy with someone at least once this trip.
Cant wait for May 10th

Ok, my buddy Joe might come and he would be bringing his massive pickup and trailer...so I have a rolling palace to stay in! There would be room for one or two others if anyone needs a place to crash. But yes I would like to leave Sunday with VXorado if we can coordinate that. How long where you planning to stay out there? Joe and I were thinking until Thursday, but haven't finalized anything.

That must really slow you down on the highway...

[Triathlete]

For those coming keep in mind, the majority of the Zu group don't start showing up until Tues/Wen. There is a small group that show earlier in the week. Just something to think about.
