How about a Russian member, folks? I will be in California in the first half of May... So - will you let me join you without a Vehicross?

Awesome Petr, will be great to meet you!
Let us know if you need picked up at an airport or anything.

Ok, I am going. I don't care what work says about it. Or the fact that I owe an enormous amount of taxes this year.

So, I need to book somewhere to stay, and I wanted to ask the Denver peeps (such as VXorado and PBkid) when they are heading out and if they want to convoy out together (safety in numbers....for mechanical reasons...I am reminded of the burning Jeep we had for just the beginning of one of our trail rides we did).

I think my dad wants to go too. He's retiring at the end of May, but already has Short-Timer's Disease.

What say you Denver dudes?

We'll be leaving Sunday- probably late morning

We have done a big Colorado Convoy before, but it seems to have broken down over the past few years with a few of us heading over at different times. I'm over in Carbondale and I'll be heading to Moab on Sunday afternoon/evening so if you want to head over then I can meet you in Glenwood Springs and we can convoy over from there.

That will work nicely for us. Unless something changes, we should plan on a convoy from Glenwood Springs.

I usually leave Aurora around 10-11am on saturday. Gives me a chance to sleep in a bit and still get there with time to set up camp and get some dinner. There is lots to do there from sight seeing on pavement all the way up to extreme stuff. Quite a few trails that are pretty easy and can be done with no problem in a stocker. I just spent a couple days there in my Volvo station wagon doing the touristy sight seeing stuff.

Maybe you should leave a day later and join the convoy...

Then I lose a day of Moab. I dont mind traveling by myself, usually have to stop a lot to pee anyway LOL. I drink a LOT of water while driving.

Cece & I are going to miss out this year because we are going to Maui to celebrate her college graduation. However, we will be in Moab from the 10th to the 12th, and hope to see some early birds. We are road-tripping from Chi-Town to California in her Mitsubishi, so my VX will be absent as well.

We really look forward to Moab, and hate missing out. Petr... We HAVE to get together. Glad you didn't get squashed by a meteor!

Hey Petr I forgot to mention, you can drive my VX cuz there's some days I'm too weak and tired to drive, so I ride with Travis.
Seriously, you're welcome to drive mine. Now we're not talking the crazy trails like "Metal Masher" or "Steel Bender" but I've got steel skids so she can handle a lot.

Ummm, hey Sue. I guess you were not in Moab when Petr had his Technicolor Dream VX there. He has a rare vision disorder that prevents him from seeing giant boulders if they are directly in front of him. Now, I am NOT saying you should rethink letting him borrow your VX... Just make sure there are always 6 to 10 other VXers nearby to yell "STOP!!!"

Hey Petr... How do you say STOP in Russian?

[JoFotoz]

LOL..Cold war redux!

Petr did have a certain 'style'!!

As for STOP in Russian... CTON....


( roughly pronounced as 'stoy"...and the N is not quit right but my keyboard wont play ..! )

I'm sorry to say that Bren & I are out for Moab 2013 due to a conflicting family obligation. Moab is still #1 on my bucket list though.
