I'll agree with everyone above. This was my first ZuZoo, but it certainly won't be my last. Everyone who takes the time out of their busy lives to put this thing together should be Sainted. Those guys and gals work hard so the rest of us can show up and have fun.

It was great to meet everyone and put names to faces. Because of the VX I felt like I knew everyone (at least a little) already, so it wasn't like making new friends, but getting reaquainted with old ones.

Vlad, excellent job on the video. When I heard the song I just about cried laughing.

I was there at Lion's Back with biju, getting the ML up and down. I have to say that that was quite an experience. My knees gave out a couple of times and I just had to sit down. I have no idea how Tone stayed so calm in the drivers seat. I've got a lot of pictures, and some video, of the event that I need to post.

Should we start a ZuZoo IX gallery so everyone can post pictures to it?

See you all next year, if not sooner.

Thanks but those are all Tia. she takes a good photo, and now with a decent camera she can.

BTW, thanks for the use of the air/impact to get that nut off the output shaft on my tcase. Tia's dad, Steve, was who did that with ya.. but I wanted to thank you again.

Always glad to help out wherever I can...it's a karma thing, Steve helped me with my skid plate the previous evening. I always like to keep my "karma account" as flush as possible...life just goes better for me that way.

Everyone was great and the new faces became old friends in a matter of minutes. Kudos to all the first timers who took the chance and are now much better equipped and confident to go offroad (all thanks to Todd for his encouragement and experience that made it happen with no damage). And my personal thanks to Mark and Biju who made Lion's Back a reality for me, even if they kept telling me I shouldn't be doing it! Here are some of Mark's pics/vids of the event. http://www.ccyarchitects.com/clientf.../LionsBack.zip

I'll be posting our VX pics (not sure why my 2 fotogs took more pics of them than me later tonite and a full video of the LB adventure on my site soon.
