Oh damn, thanks for reminding me. I gotta order a new one!
Yeah scared those 2 girls pretty good huh?

 

Bud, Milt,
Is this the same hill? Damn it, I'm gonna try it next time!

 

Thats the one!! So... when are you guys coming up north? I bet I could make it up next time! With no rain of course... I just found out the light problem a few minutes ago.... it was a fuse!! and I checked it before too.... oh well, at least its fixed. Now im off to find the noise in the front drivetrain I'm guessing its just sand and mud in the torn CV boots...

 

Milton,
I might go up to Gorman with a Rubicon friend. Do you want to meet there?

Next weekend (like the 1st or something)

 

thats the same "slippery steep slope".
Glad you got the electrical problems worked out. Now get your cv's fixed!@!

 

do you want to go Bud? Maybe there will be some snow at the top

 

I thought u would never ask.

will this be a one day trip?

 

Gorman? Wheres that? One day trip? Bud: finish installing the new shocks? If its not too far I'll go!

 

Yes, Gorman is up the 5 fwy. I have to look it up but I think it's roughly halfway between LA and Santa Maria. I think it's at Mt. Pinos...I'll update later

 

Milton,

from Sta Maria to Gorman is about 120 miles.
I'm appx 100 miles south of Gorman.

I'll be installing the shocks this saturday.

Cant wait...

 

Hmm... three hour drive... doesnt sound too bad, FirstToy... so is it a one day trip?? I have to see if I could get my school work done.. have lots of essays due on the 2nd... Hopefully I can go So its gonna be on a Sunday?

 

Hey I guessed the distance pretty well, eh?
I'm not sure which day yet. Definitely a day trip only.

The Rubicon guy has 4" lift, long travel kit, lockers, winch and other cool stuff so I plan on going as far as is safe and then checking out how he tackles the tough stuff. He might have some other Rubicons along so it might be cool to take pics or whatever.

 

ooh oooh can i come?

i'll actually be down south that weekend, and it's like 45 mins from my house.

 

Cool, didn't know Gorman was at Mt. Pinos. What exactly are the trails like there?

 

It's Hungry Valley OHV in Gorman. I guess there is about 10,000 acres to run around on with all levels of difficulty.
Calrockx,
Yeah but you know the rule is the new guy buys everyone a chowder bowl!

 

calrockx is not new but he can still buy chowder.
click here for the last hungry valley run early this year.

 

oh come on now, hungry valley chowder? southern california chowder? man, after pismo i'm spoiled!

 

Yeah I know, but he's still gotta buy Pismo chowder on the way down and seal it airtight for us to open up!

 

FirstToy,
did you mention its scheduled for the 1st weekend of dec?
If so, i cant make it on the 6th of Dec. since its the TTORa calico run. But i can make it the day after.

 

I think he meant this coming weekend Bud... The 30th I hope...
