    There it is. I think this is an awesome idea. For me, the date really kills it for me. My wife is a saint and I love her for going for 2 years straight, but it is very hard for me to keep doing it.

    Personally, I would love to see ZuZu in Moab in like October or some other time when it is much, much cooler. Even in May, the underside of my forearm gets regularly burnt on the side of my VX. And I know I can really only speak for myself, but I would MUCH rather camp in cooler weather. I'm sure most folks would disagree there though.

    So, not that my vote counts for much, but I think moving the dates is a damn fine idea. The farther away from May 13th, the better!

    The thing is, this idea would have to go over well with PlanetIsuzoo and the folks on 4x4 wire as well. Otherwise, we could just make a whole new "VehiCROSS Event" and do our own thing. But we are already the "snobs" of the ZuZu crowd anyhow I think.

    You have to remember.....It's not my perception of when Mother's Day should be celebrated. Both my mother and wife have this perception that Mother's Day is when you should celebrate it. It's like Christmas....it's celebrated on the 25th of December. There are many scholars that believe that not even the day Jesus was born on, but here we are celebrating it on the 25th. If you don't like my arguement, because the travel time to get to Moab falls on Mother's Day. Then you don't love your mother as much as me...........LOL.......... and I'll never convince you using that arguement.

    The other point noone has argued against it. There are A LOT of quad out there at the same time as us. We are a group of 30 including VXs, Troopers, and Rodeos, with 20 of those being VXs. There are over 500 Quads that took over our ZUZU week. Our numbers are shrinking, and there numbers are growing. May is a great time to have it. I'm not in favor of changing the month. All I'm suggesting is moving our date back one week. It won't be any hotter moving it a week back, but there will be 500+ quads less to deal with.

    Peace.

    Don't be that old fart that says ....."well, that's the date we always had....so we have to keep that date." I say run it by Planet Izusu.

    Billy, you wanna take the helm on that? You've been a Planet member longer than I, and at this point, I still don't know if I will be able to attend the 2010 gathering, but I certainly intend to return at some point.

    I still wish we had 2 ZuZus a year.

    For me if it is May 10-17 I CANNOT make it, this is when we have conference outdoor championships this year. But after this May 18-31 should be ok for me
