    Are you going to be joining us this year? Sure hope so. Your knowledge and expertise of the trails would surely be missed.

    Billy,

    I'm sure that you would crush me, but I am interested in doing some mountain biking before the VX run. I'll bring my own bike, so no need for a rental.

    Don't really have an opinion on a trail for the VX only run right now. I'll do a little more research and throw my two cents in.

    Billy, I contacted Todd a couple of days ago about the same thing. He's going to know a little bit more about his work schedule after the new year.
    Hopefully, things will work out for him this year.
    Peace.
    Tom

    p.s.
    What about Scott (Moncha)? I noticed he hasn't said yeah or ney on ZuZu either?

    OK looks like my calendar is clear for that week so Linda and I are in. I would like to keep it closer to Moab than some of the trails I have lead in the past like Hotel Rock, Elephant Hill and Devils' Racetrack but those are still a possibility if everyone agrees. Just to set the record straight the BLM is more than likely instituting a 25 vehicle limit on non permitted groups. I am not sure at this time when this ruling will take effect but may be this year.
    As for the trail choice, since it looks like there will be many stock height non locked VX,s this year I will take Billy’s suggestion on no more than a 3.5 rated trail. I would like to do something off the beaten track that will be new to all but still Moab typical. I will have to think about it and as usual I am open to suggestions.
    Todd

    For anyone who wants to join me for some Mt. Biking on the Monday before the VX run I checked into rentals. Poison Spider Bikes rents very nice bikes for $40 a day. They recommend that you reserve at least 3 weeks ahead of time. Anyone interested?


    Also, lets get the ball rolling for the VX run. What trail does everyone thing we should do. Remember we want to keep it in the 3.5 rating or lower so as to not scare off any new guys! Should be a scenic trail also to keep evryone interested (not that there are many trails there that lack scenery).
    So what is everyones suggestions? Remember the trail will have to be known by someone so they can lead. I will start to do some homework and see what I can dig up. I got a new GPS for Xmas, so that should help also!

    For those that want a look at some of the trails, here is a link to RME trail section with Google Earth links. You might have to register with RME and download Google Earth if you haven’t already done so. It is cool as long as you have high speed. So far there are 14 Moab trails with more all the time. http://www.rockymountainextreme.com/...splay.php?f=78

    Glad to see you will be there Todd! I wasn't there last year but I am sure everyone missed hearing the history of the trails along the way. I know I for one enjoy knowing a bit of trail history to go along with the fun and challenges.
    I know I am open to whatever trail everyone would like to do. I am sure you will be able to pull something special out of your bag of tricks!
    Where is everyone planning to stay this year? I think I will be reserving a tent spot at Portal.

    Thumbs up

    I think right now I'll be camping in the group area at the Portal. Hopefully, who ever makes the decision for the HQ will make it at the Portal. Hint/Hint
    Peace.
