24/25th.... that would be best for me... I'm busy Oct. 1 - Family in town

[MSHardeman]

Either weekend would be fine for me. Can't wait to meet everyone.

And your Axiom can't go off road because?

265/35/22s dont seem to have much sidewall flex or good mud traction for some reason. But i would still love to meet you guys.

I'm waiting for a quote from Mt. Princeton Hot Springs for an overnight stay.. Unless something breaks it looks to be around $90-$100 for just about anywhere.. So I figured the springs would be cool (or hot).. I posted this on the calendar so, if you plan to attend make sure to check in..

[MSHardeman]

Oh boy, I can't wait. This will be my first "official" VX meet since I bought the thing. I'm not much of an offroader, but if it's not too extreme I'll give it a shot.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.

[Moncha]

bearing that in mind, the trail that I have picked, unless someone else has a different opinion is not a difficult trail at all, mostly scenery and the chance to meet one another. We can always set up another more difficult one for a later date.. There would actually be enough time to do a few trails in the area..

[pbkid]

sounds like fun lets do it. how much would it cost per person? how would food and things like that work? bring your own or we all gonna pitch?

[Moncha]

Was contacted by Mt. Princeton Hot Springs today.. they have no availablility.. they have a car tour that weekend.. and Buena Vista is EXPENSIVE to stay in so.....

The next best thing that is economically feasible is to stay in Salida, The Best Western has rooms and there are other selections.. It really depends on how many rooms we need.. I see there are 3 attending, can the rest that want to go also chime in so I can get an accurate count? The rates won't change but we'd all like to stay in the same place, right?

I really want to do this, but I'm in the camping budget right now. I can find places near where we'll off road. Do you know what time Saturday this is all going on, are we off-roading on Sunday? I'm just looking at scheduling here and trying to figure out what's up. Also, I have a friend with an amigo, and he'll most likely come along as well. But like I said, I kind of need the schedule to commit.. anyone?

[Moncha]

Figured, we could meet early on Saturday (9am-10am) then go do some browsing on trails, come back in to town on Saturday night, stay over.. I'm finding rates 30.00 - 50.00 range depending on how picky folks are.. and then either leave on Sunday morning or hang out maybe take a ride.. You may be able to split a room with someone...

[pbkid]

yea, well i was thinking that i will probably camp out so that i can save some money, because im a poor college kid =)

[MSHardeman]

I'm up for anything. I have a couple of dogs, so I need to know if the hotel (which ever one) takes dogs, or if I need to kennel them here. Other than that, Salida sounds great. It's a bit of a drive from Salida, but we could head in to the St. Elmo ghost town. I haven't been over it, but Tin Cup pass dumps out there.
Moncha, thanks for getting this together. Let me know if I can help out in any way.

[morgan-tec]

I am definatly up for a meet but the trails are off limits for me so is there any chance of a evening meet that weekend that i could attend after you guys hit the trails?

[Moncha]

Ok, how's about camping out overnight then? Seems everyone is pretty spry. We could meet up Sat morning, do some driving, then throw down some tents and spend the night. Does anyone have a preference on rustic camping (My preference *Free*) or established campground?

Morgan, we could meet up on Sunday for a lunch meet in town.. Are there going to be any singles that Morgan could ride with?

[biju]

I vote for camping too. I'll have to bring my pups as well...
