VX only run

[nfpgasmask]

Well, you're probably right. I was just in Santa Cruz a few weeks ago. They have basically outlawed dogs in Santa Cruz, even on the street in the shopping area. We stopped in a shop that sells specialty dog and cat stuff and asked the girl about why dogs are not allowed. She said it was because someone slipped on some fresh steamy doggie poo and ended up suing the city of Santa Cruz and voila, no dogs allowed.

My whole problem with it, is that parks try to say dogs are in some way bad for the environment. I wish they would just come out and say its because of their poo that people don't clean up, instead of some mumbo jumbo like they scare wildlife away. I would say my VX is a lot scarier to a wild animal, than another animal.

Its just another bass ackwards rule that is, "For me to poop on!" in the words Triumph.

i think the no dogs rule is one of those instances where a kid blows his hand off with a firework so they outlaw them in the whole state... a few owners who let their dogs run free without even keeping them within sight and it of course runs up on the 2 people in the whole park who have a phobia of dogs.. so they freak out and the dog freaks out and someone gets bitten..

2.5 mo's away... any final word on who's leading this?

Alright VX Zu-sters... are we of the opinion the VX run will still happen in the absense of Todd Adams - or do we feel this won't happen?

As people are surely needing to make plans/reservations we should probably nail this down.

Tom mentioned possibly co-leading a run... thoughts? ideas? Tom you still open to this?

Personally, I'm 50/50 - and on the fence today...

Lets discuss...

There def. SHOULD be a VX run! I would be willing to co-lead as well but I can't commit to that until I get my front 3rd member rebuilt. I hope to tear it down next month when I move into my new house! If someone else doesn't volunteer before then and my rebuild goes smoothly I would be willing to co-lead... Let's not give up just yet. Someone else want to step up to the plate?

Ok, I'll discuss this.

When I decide to go, I've been enough times that I could probably lead something.. I have a nice GPS setup so, we wouldn't get too lost. And I promise to not scare anyone again (Well maybe)

I just need a little more time to see what is in store for my near future...

When I decide to go...

funny...

Glad to know you're going. Now when you 'decide to go' hope you can make the convoy/BBQ!

Stay well.

Well, all I can say is that if there is a VX Only Run, I will be that much more into it. I really want to go...

I'll lead the VX Run. I'll need a tail gunner. Any volunteers??????

I think from reading the previous post the general consences is Elephant Hill? That's a fun 3.5 trail. Beginners will have a blast.

Peace.
Tom

P.S.
There are always a couple of ex VXers that bring their other ride and enjoy the fun with us. I think last year the ratio was 15/2.

Tom lead. Moncha lead. Tom & Moncha co-lead - doesn't matter! If we do this, Zu noobs pay attention: YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS ELEPHANT HILL...!!! It's the most fun, exhilarating, scenic, pee in your pants*, adrenaline rush in/around Moab for first time VX offroadsters... (IMO). When I did Elephant Hill I could have gone straight home and been perfectly content with my sense of accomplishment. (Can you tell that run made an impression on me?)

* Note: Volume of pee may vary by individual, rig driven and beer consumed the night before.

Although, I'd be happy with any run really... it's all a good time.
