    First real off-roading with VX, had a blast!

    Went NW of Denver a few hours to a favorite camping spot over the weekend (whew did we pick a cold weekend to camp!) and the VX came through like a champ. There were plenty of muddy and snowy spots and big open areas to have some fun in, and I did my best to hide as much yellow as possible I'll post pics soon. What a capable truck!

    Ain't Colorado Beautiful this time of year??

    The VX is the perfect vehicle for this state!

    Glad you have fun.. Hope to see you soon.

    Keep thinking of MOAB!

    Speaking of Colorado, when are we planning to do another meet? Scott? Vance?

    Sometime betwen Moab and CO ZU?

    Hopefully we can get a bigger outcome this time around.
    Let's start thinking!

    I'm already planning my new Load Warrior setup so I can make it to CO ZU - it was REALLY REALLY REALLY tight this weekend.

    I'd be up for a CO Meet.

    Do you want a Strictly VX meet, or an Isuzu meet?

    Let me know, I can assist with a centralized meeting, and also get the Trailseekers group involved, since yall want to wheel more often, it would be a good chance to get both groups together.

    Take care,
    Keith

    Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    Anything would be cool! I must say that i haven't kept up with the trailseeker site during the winter. I would have loved to go see the Ice Racing!!! So many thing to do, so little time! If you guys are planning anything make sure to post it here too! The snow will be melting soon and trails will be opening up! Woo Hoo!

    Well... I am working on getting my TeraLows installed towards the end of this week, beginning of next. I will want to test them prior to Moab. Hmmm... perhaps a close trip is in order for next weekend, May 3/4? That may be possible. Other than that, it's full steam ahead for Moab 'Zu Zoo. then it is Memorial Day weekend the very next weekend after 'Zu Zoo.

    That is a possibility as well, either wheelin or a get together. Other than that, we are lookin at the first weekend in June.

    Amazing that May is GONE! No open weekends at all, I suspect camping and getting away over Memorial day, always cool with a crew of 'Zus...

    Thoughts, Ideas, Suggestions?

    School for me doesn't get out untill May 15. I won't be able to do anything till after that. I wish 4wheeling was part of my curriculum. I would study that everyday!

    First weekend in june might work. I might end up going jetskiing that weekend though. Decisions, decisions, AHHHHHHHH!

    Keith,
    How often do you guys go wheeling during the summer? I will check the trailseeker sight for local events.

    I can honestly say that someone is doing something every weekend within the group. Always someone wheelin.

    And sorry man, I hafta call BS on no time until after school is out. I dont know of any school that goes 7 days a week. There are always weekend trips to go out and hang, lil day trips and they work out well.

    How about i have 4 weeks left of school that i am going full time. 4 different 4000 level subjects in my last semester. I graduate in May! I have 3 more reports that are due the week before finals then i have to study for those finals as well. I have a stock portfolio that i have to manage and do an analysis on and have it ready to present on May 5! On top of that i also work 35 hours a week. All my free time is tied up in getting these things done!!!! I am also not very smart, so it takes me forever to get things to soak in.

    WHEN WILL THE MADNESS END!!!!!!!!!!
    AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

    So when you guys doing something after MOAB?

    Thanks. I will need it.
    And you know what....
    A day trip on May 3 does sound very tempting!!! How close a trail are we talking? That little man with horns sitting on my shoulder says i should go and have a little fun. HMMMMM.

    Damn peer presure, i give in too easy.
    Randy are you up for something that Saturday?

    Not sure.. would like a relative close trail just to get the bugs out... Slaughterhouse Gulch comes to mind. Could be entertaining.
