Big Falls July 31st!!

Ok, looks like I will be starting this thread...
Some of us local Central Coasters want to go wheeling at Big Falls. There are others who will be coming into town the weekend of the 30-Aug 1,so let's plan on doing a Big Falls run that Saturday. Milton and I will probably head up together, but we can meet wherever people want. Newbies welcome, 4x4 is recommended. Anyone 4x2 that wants to go can park their truck and I'm sure we'll have room for people to ride with others.

Sound good to everyone??? LET'S PUT SOME MORE SCRATCHES IN OUR PAINT!!!

i'll let you guys know a few days before the run if i can make it or not. It's a long drive and i'm trying to convince my partner that shes in the mood for some clam chowder.

Brad & Milt, Keith... man, it's the whole gang again!

Yeah it's been tough. I've had a full schedule with racing on weekends and alot of work on top.
The plan was to hit Big Bear on the way(or way back) to Arizona for a family reunion the first week of August but Pismo with you guys sounds fun -- especially with this heatwave!! Big Bear isn't sounding too fun in 100+ temps...

I'm thinking about it but Pismo is, of course, kind of out of the way to Arizona! We'll see. I really want to hook up with you 3 amigos soon though, no one I'd rather wheel with! I want to see Milton make that hill on Big Falls!! I bet you can do it too now, heck I'm for trying it!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
I'm so ready for wheeling! 2 in the afternoon should be fine, that gives me time to play with my coilovers like I've been wanting to do for about a month now. I haven't run Big Falls since I put on the shackles either, so this will be fun!

Russ, you want to meet up at my place or in AG somewhere? Let me know!

worked like a charm

it'd prolly be easiest to meet in either AG, or the trailhead by lopez lake.. that way i don't have to drive all the way down from SLO, and then backtrack to get to the trail.

Ok, how 'bout we meet at the same place as last time, the Lemos Feed store. Can we firm up a time? Say 2 o'clock? Or even earlier so we can actually get to Big Falls by 2? The earlier the better, then we can all hit Splash on the way back for dinner, maybe get some photo ops in the dirt parking lot....lol.

One of the reasons why i'm heading up there is because i miss him. NoT@!
I didnt get a chance to wheel with him during the pismo event in July.

James, whats your status?

I told Milton about it a few days ago, I'll give him a buzz tomorrow to remind him. Unless a meteor hits him I'm pretty sure he'll make it.
