Bimati,
I also had another Colorado VX'er (who just purchased a Proton) contact me - and is still trying to decide if he's going to join.
So far I see 5 (+ my proton, making 6). Seeing as the time is getting close - anybody else going to be through that area during our meet and would like to join?

Which route are you guys taking into Utah? We will be coming up the 163 to the 191 out of Arizona.
Never mind, just looked at my map. The 70 takes you in from the north side.

Moab Main Street
Project Web site: www.udot.utah.gov/moabmainstreet
Project includes the complete reconstruction of Moab Main Street from 300 South to 200 North and pavement rehabilitation from Overlook Road to 500 North. Some utility lines will also be replaced.
Work is complete from 200 North to 100 South and has been suspended until May 1 when crews will return to work from 100 South to 300 South. Pavement rehabilitation activities from Overlook Road to 500 North will also resume on May 1. Construction is expected to wrap up by August 2006. During construction, traffic is reduced to one lane in each direction through the work zone. Motorists can expect a reduced speed limit and moderate delays. All business accesses will remain open. Expected completion: August 2006. (RT)

Just an FYI for your planning pleasure.
Just an FYI...
There is construction on 191 south from I70 when you exit @ Crescent junction.
My recommendation is to take 128 down that parallels the river @ Cisco exit ~20 mi over the border (BR-6 takes you righ parallel to 70 to the south a couple miles then 128 to the left and follows the river all the way to town). Slightly longer, but WELL worth the miles for the scenery baby!!! Especially if you are going to be driving during daylight hours.
Take care,
Keith
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
Too funny Billy, I was just typing about that. Was going to go copy/paste it but you already got in there...

Actually if we go where I'm thinking (The Bayou) then it'll be more like gumbo......which is kinda soupyish

Jay, Lisa and I were planning on swinging up to Pueblo to see Scott (for a coffee) and would love to bring up the rear of your convoy. Not sure how far that is from Pueblo but we'll map it. We are leaving from Houston (we'll be down there for the Grand Prix) and driving straight through so we should be there Monday morning.
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!! Hope you can join us.
Update on Grand Junction: The convoy is scheduled to meet at the Shell station on Horizon drive sometime around 2PM on the 15th.
Horizon Drive is the main GJ exit with all of the hotels and the airport. When you exit the interstate, you will be staring at a yellow Shell station right in front of you.
Can't Wait....I'm staying at the Sleep Inn with the other VXers.
