Reno Meet this Saturday night! June 30th

[nfpgasmask]

Mr. Zeus is coming to town and I was thinking of getting the Reno gang together at Bully's on MaeAnne and Robb, here. (http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?addr=1640+Robb+Drive&csz=reno%2C+nevada&country=us&new=1&name=&qty=)

I am thinking 7 or 8pm until whenever...

What do you guys think?

Bart

[CrnCnn]

I am there. Your wife gonna come Bart?

[nfpgasmask]

Yea, fosheezey. Bring yours along too! The more the merrier!

Finally I get to meet her. Now my wife can drive my drunk arse home.

[CrnCnn]

Lets be honest. I envy the Reno meets.
Why is that?

[ZEUS]

Bully's on Saturday it is! My VX wishes he could make it but he shall be tucked safely in my garage.

[JHarris1385]

A number of you all in a small town that meet almost regularly. Its hard to get a meet organized anywhere else.

[CrnCnn]

poor little VX.

[CrnCnn]

Well, basically I have no life, no friends that I hang out with other than some from work on occasion. So I have lots of time for meets.

[nfpgasmask]

Likewise, being still new to Reno I don't really have many friends either, so its cool to get together and hang out. Plus, this time we will be drinking so it's bound to be fun.

I am just worried about Ascinder making it in his VX. I know he said something about having the front end under construction again, but hopefully his VX is still rolling on Saturday, otherwise, he'll have to drive his big brown truck over to Bully's.... :)

Bart

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, that's cool man. Just give me a ring and I will scoop you up.

Are you saying you want to get married...? Cuz I don't swing that way! :laugho:

[nfpgasmask]

Haha, me neither. Just CALL me and I will come GET YOU in my VX...

:) Bart

[nfpgasmask]

By the way, nice Pinky Demon, Clint. Are you a DOOMer?

Bart

[CrnCnn]

Bart

Used to be. My Stepdad got DOOM 3, but I never played it, my computer is not quite fast enough.

[nfpgasmask]

Doom and Doom II were excellent. Doom 3 sucks, if you ask me. You're not missing much. Its all about Half-Life.

Bart

Highjacking your own thread?

I havent tried Half-Life. I used to play Quake also.

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, we should stay on topic. We can talk games on Saturday at Bully's!

Bart

[Ascinder]

I'm in too. My girlfriend and I will be there with the VX. I am still, with the patience of a saint, awaiting the parts for the front end. Can't wait to see you guys there!! I wish I could have seen ZEUS's bedliner job up close, I am really thinking of doing it now that I got the magnetbra which is very black and contrasts with the somewhat grey hood insert.

[nfpgasmask]

AWESOME! We will have a good time! Maybe Zeus can bring a piece of his cladding along to show you! :)

I saw it, and quite honestly, from a distance, you almost wouldn't notice. Once you get up close you can see the texture a little more, but it looks good and does not detract from the original looks of the cladding.

Bart

[ZEUS]

Well, I can't bring any samples of cladding but I do like how it came out. However, I think some parts have faded so don't get into a rush just yet. I need to give it a good wash to see how bad it is.


Otherwise, I will try to log on once more late tonight, then I leave in the morning. I have your 3 phone numbers in my cell and I look forward to hanging out with you Saturday night! See ya.

[CrnCnn]

So I vote for 7 since I gotta be at work at 6am on Sunday. Any problems with that? if so too bad I will be there at 7

[nfpgasmask]

Yup, that's fine. 7 it is.

Bart

[cyronman]

Too bad this wasn't 2 weeks later, and I could come out from Sac.
I'm pretty sure I will be out there around then.

Have fun guys.
Especially CrnCnn Sunday morning! :p

[CrnCnn]

Well, there is plenty of summer left. We will have to put somthing together.

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, how many active Sac VXers do we have on the forum? It would be cool do do a meet up somewhere in the middle. Like in the mountains somewhere.

Bart

[nfpgasmask]

Oh, and just so you guys know, come to Bully's on Mae Anne and Robb Drive, not the Bully's on Mae Anne and McCarran by Wal*mart. I just wanted to clarify that because I think some people don't realize there is another Bully's over on Robb. Its right on the corner in the Raley's shopping center.

Bart

PS - For those in Sac, come on, its only a 2 hour drive! Exit 9 off I-80. I'll make sure you only have one or two beers so you can make it home! It would be way cool to have an unexpected VX or two show up. ;)

[JHarris1385]

One question: Who is repsonible for picking up Lt. Dangle in their VX?

[nfpgasmask]

Well, if Zeus is Lt.Dangle then I guess that would be me. Maybe later in the night we will have a "T.T. situation".

LOL! Bart


One question: Who is repsonible for picking up Lt. Dangle in their VX?

[CrnCnn]

Well I for one didn’t take a camera last night so I think we have to wait for Zeus for some pics.

I had a blast last night and ended up calling in today. Feel kind of bad for the guy I’m supposed to be training but too bad for him. He did want to be there anyway.

I enjoy hanging out with all of you, it was good to finally put a face and real personality to Justin (Zeus).

ANY time you guys wanna hang out again just let me know. Hope we can get that camping trip together.

[nfpgasmask]

Likewise dude! Its always good to hang out and drink! Too bad you had to call off sick though, but then again, who wants to work anyway?

I did snap one shot, its not very good, but....

http://www.nofuture.com/myvx/bullys.jpg

I felt a little sicky this morning too, but after a Monster and some extra sleep, I am all good. But I think Zeus might be a little hung over, especially if he kept drinking after I dropped him off....

Camping: Definitely. Maybe this fall....

Arizona (http://www.vehicross.info/forums/showthread.php?p=100906#post100906) in November is nice!?!?

Looks like you guys had fun!

I talked to Ascinder about the Nov. trip and he sounded a little interested. Maybe we will come down.

[Triathlete]

It would be great to have a few of you caravan down from the north! Reno is a bit further away than I thought...according to map quest it is about 811 miles!
Now lets get this post back on topic!
Zues, where are the rest of those pics?

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah Billy, for us to get down there its got to be at least a 14 hour drive. Most people don't realize how far north we really are. I think its like a 7 or 8 hour drive from Reno just to get to Vegas!

It would be sweet though. I long to go back to Sedona....Oak Creek Canyon is gorgeous.

Bart

[Triathlete]

Thats about the same drive I have to get to Moab (well worth it though!). Sedona is starting to get over built/populated. They are building housing projects right up in the red rock. Kind of makes me sick to see. I was up there in the late 70's when there was nothing but nature up there. The "main" street through town had maybe a dozen little shops and that was pretty much it. Slie rock is a lot of fun and there are some nice camp areas in the Oak Creek Canyon area. Unfortunately they fill up quickly on the weekends. If you came down though, you'd definately want to take your time coming down and hit all the cool stuff on the way down.
When i go to Moab next year I am leaving a few days early so I can stop and do some hiking in Canyon de Chelly (I've always wanted to see the falls and canyons there) and getting into Moab a day or two early to rent a mountain bike and get a little different perspective on the trails!

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, the real problem is, I have no time. I started on as a permanant employee at my new job here in Reno in late February and I only get like 3 days of vacation this year. :mad: It really sucks. I already used a bunch of days for Moab and I have to take some time around the holidays so I am basically screwed until '08. Weekend trips are about all I can do for the rest of this year....

Next year, for Moab, I am planning to stay the whole week and camp a little more on the way there and back. We stayed at Great Basin National Park last time, and it was GREAT!

When I lived in Chicago, I had like 5 weeks of vacation stored up at my job, since I was there for so long, and when I quit I got payed out for it (which was nice, it helped pay for the move), but now I am really missing my vacation time. I barely ever took a vacation when I lived in Chicago, and now I have like a million trips I wanna take out here....

Such is life I guess....

Thanks for the get together, Reno VXers! I also really enjoyed hanging with you guys! I had an awesome trip to Reno and am glad I got to see different parts of it, and not only casinos. I could see living there would be all sorts of good times!

My VX shots weren't timed with the camera flash it seems :confused: , so Bart's pic would be the only one we have. As for hangovers, I wasn't too bad off yesterday - coming back to work today is much much worse! YAWN...

Thursday - 22 Capt. & Cokes!
Friday - 4 beers, 1 glass of champagne, 2 glasses of wine, 3 Capt. & Cokes (took it easy :rolleyes: )
Saturday - 2 beers and 1 Capt. & Coke before Bully's... then 3 (or 4?) 22oz Blue Moons and a shot of Tequila, then back to the casino for 2 more Capt. & Cokes
Sunday - 2 beers and a pizza at home

I am heading to Flaming Gorge in 2 weeks for the weekend. In 3 weeks, I am heading to Vegas and/or Casper. After that, I am done traveling for a bit... unless... a certain gorgeous band member from Reno gives me a call and wants to meet up in Wendover! ;) Anyway, the camping trip might be a little further out for me. We should make it happen sometime though. September might be a possibility...? If we never get to it, at least there is Moab '08!

Justin

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, my weekends are just about booked until Sept also....and there is already stuff brewing for then, so we'll just play it by ear....

Yeah man, I am hurting today...freakin' sooo tired....

Bart

[cyronman]

Thursday - 22 Capt. & Cokes!

Justin

:eek:
HOW MANY!?

[ZEUS]

I know! I am surprised I didn't get sick so it must be proof they mix weak drinks in Reno. Then again, it took 13 hours to drink that much and I had a nap in there somewhere.

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of rum and Coke. I think it stems from the fact it was the first drink that made me puke when I was in high school. Now I won't touch rum, unless its in some sort of tropical girlie drink....

But I will say this: all day Sunday I had the beer poopies.... :eek: :) :) :) :)

Bart

[ZEUS]

HAHA! That's funny schit - literally! I had a tough time with that myself most the weekend - mix that with all the walking around I was doing... Ouch! ;oor; :deadr: :nor:
:disturbed TMI is so much fun sometimes!

[CrnCnn]

Just imagine me after all that guinness
