All,

Mark your calendars! The next quarterly meeting has been tentativley scheduled for September 25, 2004 to be held at Spring Creek OHV/ATV park in Houston. Details to follow as they come.

s

Dudes-

The website says 8/28, not 9/25.... just make sure no one is cornfused about the date...

Here is the current plan for the meeting.

We are definitely holding it at Spring Creek ATV/OHV Park in Houston on September 25, 2004 starting around 2PM. Some people have said they want to camp out Saturday night; anyone is welcome to join in that. This park, and the camping is 4x2 friendly, so all ya '2-wheelers' come on out!

Also, Jim Shrake from Shrockworks is going to come join us at our meeting to talk shop, show stuff off and whatnot. He will be offering 15% off his products ordered at the meeting, and he has also graciously extended us 15% off products ordered BEFORE the meeting provided you are in attendance to pick them up. Just think, 15% off and no shipping to worry about if you order before hand. Pre-orders should be done ASAP as he has to make what you want.

So, see you on the 25th!

damn and I just got my sliders. I'm still waiting on a rear bumper with corner protection.

no kidding - when's Shrock going to make us a rear bumper!?!?

Come to the meeting and ask.

Oh yeah, we are also raffling off a $100 gift certificate from Shrockworks...

I'm planning on coming. How many others typically come to these things? How many are coming to this one?

How many others come? It varies; seriously. A good guess would be 5-20. Sometime lots of people say they are coming, and do. Other times, lots of people say they are coming, and don't. Look at it this way, if more come, you get to meet a ton of people; if less come, you have a better chance of winning the $100 from Shrock Works. Either way, we are gonna do some wheelin' and camping after the meeting. Oh yeah, if this is your first time, you also have to deal with me giving you a package of 'stuff' from various vendors.

I am going. My son will be there. My 'other' may be there too.

what time you leaving on sat?

howdy all...

this will be my first swxc meeting. where in houston is this off road park? it's sad to say i live in houston and have not been there or heard of it for that matter.

thanks
ignacio

It is off hwy 45 N. about 5 mins or so from the Woodlands, TX. You can get directions at springcreekatvpark.com. I've been out there before and its cool. No rocks or anything like that, but lots of sand creek crossings. Not bad for being only 30 mins from down town H-town.

Oh whats the plan for lunch on that day, are we going to BBQ or are there other plans?

Who's planning on camping out there?

Lance, we can leave about 0800-0900. Let me know which is best for you.

s

The club is going to provide burgers and dogs (plus buns) for the meeting iteself. BYO-Drink.

(If you are planning on camping, BYO-Breakfast. )

Do we have a meeting/departure time for the DFW caravan, or we just going to go down individually?

0830? Sound good?

Well damn, another meeting Im going to miss. Are there going to be minutes or somthing of the sort?

One of these days I will attend a meeting.

Sounds fine, normal meeting location?

Robert,

Yeah, same meeting spot. If Lance gets a hold of me, we may meet at another location, but for now, same as usual.

Ryan,

I'll post some minutes of sorts for ya.

s

is anybody there going to have a 40 or 50 flowmaster on there X? I'd go if somebody would let me hear the sound and such...

dammit... SWXC finally comes to Houston again, and my ass can't come due to obligations downtown on Saturday... man, it's been a LONG time since my last meeting...

Long,

How long you gonna be in downtown Houston? We are going to be at the park for a long time; in fact some people are camping over until Sunday...

s

I have a 40 series flowmaster and will be at the meeting. And it only costs 5.25 a minute to here it. J/J... Looking foward to meeting fellow Xers

Oh. my club dues are past due, is it cool to pay an officer at the meeting, and could a get a new membership card then?

sweet! Hells ya I'm going! But I don't know exactly where this place is, could somebody give me exact directions so I can type it up on mapquest.com. Also could somebody could me there phone number? I normally get lost, and I'd hate to drive an hour and a half to get lost. Send it to my

e-mail: blue-xterra@tamu.edu

Sweet I finally get to listen to some flows on an X! No more will I stand in indecision over to get or not to get! Ya... c-ya'll there

Check out their web page . It has a lnk for the directions.

Rudy... yes and yes

is anyone from the austin area going?

All -

Due to Ivan deciding to reappear, the quarterly meeting is CANCELLED. 60-70 mph winds and rain do not really work well with an outdoor bbq/camp-out/meeting/wheelin' thing-a-ma-joo.

We are also not rescheduling, or moving the location, as time is just too short.

Rudy, I appreciate all the effort you put into this and whatnot. We will definately hit Spring Creek for our next meeting.

If you have any questions, concerns, or need some loving comfort getting through this, let me know.

Oh, in case you need plans for this weekend, the Z club is going to the drive in movies at Brazos (Spidy Man 2 is playing) on Saturday, and I am going to the Texas State Fair then too.

s

NOOOOOOOOOOO

what about the flows??? THE FLOWS?!?

I say we screw IVAN. I mean hell we are xterra's! Lets show the media, and the world that our cars stop for NOTHING!

haha the flows......fantastic....you're funny

Hey no sweat, but it is kinda of a bummer. It would really suck if Ivan dies out by Sat. or doesn't even come to Houston. Now that the meeting has been cancelled it will probably die out, but if we kept our plans the storm would strengthen and come directly to us. Oh well

I say we meet somewhere else! I mean hell lets all meet at some offroading place between houston and oh... lets say college station? hu? sound good? you know you like it...

ah darnit.....I'm going to college station tomorrow :rolleyes:

I couldnt make it Saturday night either anyways... Sat's mah birthday and I got plans with the future missus...

is that what you are planning for your bday?.....or have you already asked?........congrats either way

oh she's already the future missus... it's just my birthday...

Okay - I assume EVERYONE has seen the whole Bubb Rubb thing... but if not this was a perfect intro:
"Then you gots the Flows"

Does anybody local still want to head out tommorrow for the afternoon? it looks as if we dodged the storm. Let me know I'll be checking posts through out the day. Let me know.

Scott I got your message, no problem, glad to help out anyway I could. It would be cool if the next meeting would be scheduled for Houston that way we don't get skipped all together.

Go figure. But as you said, had we not cancelled it, Houston would be getting slammed for the next few days.

Oh well, I can control some things (the ebb and flow of the tide, the drift of the continents, the exact position of the sun along it's ecliptic), but not the weather.

hahahaha... Damnit... I knew yall wouldn't get hit by the storm...

But thats okay, regarding the flows. My friend told me of a shop in Houston, that I plan to go to, I'm gonna try magnaflows on. I also plan to go to the flea market and get my X an InSaNe SyStEm. Or atlest an InSaNe SuBwOoFeR & AmP. And just because I can make every other letter capitalized I'm getting a discount.

Anyway, when are we having the next meeting? Now I really want to attend something! I went offroading yesterday! For the first time! HOLY CRAP! the X is friggin amazing at offroading! I was extremely impressed! I also get a discount for exclamation marks! But seriously, when is the next meeting, anybody know?

ha ha ha, "I like these guys, there are funny guys, just kill one of them." - El Guapo, Three Amigos.. AHH good stuff, any ways heard the next meeting should be around January,

Where did you go wheeling, Should we start another thread? Or keep the sprit alive of this one..

I went wheeling on the side of a insterstate highway in the middle of no where... Is that illegal?

Only if you get caught...

Careful though (both with what you do and what you say about it)... a lot of folks on here take great offense at illegal offroading. It makes us all look bad and can get the few places where it IS legal closed down.

Oct 30th - Barnwell Mountain Recreational Area

(Gilmer Texas - near Tyler)

BE THERE!

i didn't know that it is illegal? And I'm being serious. I thought that since it's public property, because its a section of the highway, that you can publicly do whatever unless what you are doing can harm others. But thanks for telling me that it is, because my friends were just as clueless

ah yes....wouldn't that be under the SB 155 bill :rolleyes:

speaking of that....how did the rally go?
