Bren and I are heading up Friday, but I do not know what time yet. Depends on if she has to work in the morning.

Four pages in and now, I have to say, I'm in for sure.

I just ordered 2 - 10" and 1 - 16" fans to replace the stock ones. I'm planning on using a mechanical temperature switch for the time being for the engine control and have the two condensor fans for cooling the bulk of the time, that is when the A/C is on. They'll be running off a relay from mcmaster.

Don't care for mud anymore, but should be fun as hell. [Wave]

Wanted to bring the 4Runner, but might bring the X, although if I do go it'll be me and the 5 year old. Wife works Sundays so I'll have to bring the kid. Anyone else bringing kids along? Adam / Dan / Pluvo?

Roger, you know I always have my co-pilot with me.

We'll probably meet @ Bass Pro.

Sounds like we have a good group. So let's plan on leaving the Chevron at 2:15pm Friday the 1st.

DR - are you camping at the start or finish?

No kids for me Rog. I'll either be by myself or with a friend again this year. [drink]

Bit apprehensive about bringing the kid along without wife. Kid can be a royal pain in the ass sometimes, but if she has Cassie to play with I imagine it'll keep her busy.

I don't work on Fridays, so I'll be heading up early that morning, fight a little rush hour and probably visit a friend for a couple of hours in Flag.

Desert Rat, can you give me directions to the camp? I'll be up there well before the rest of the group and want to set up after lunch.

I wouldn't mind knowing where the Friday night camp will be either. Friday work is a sure thing until after 5, but there's a good chance I can skip Saturday work if you don't mind another X for the weekend.

Both camps are in the same place as all the last years.

Except if you are camping Friday at the first spot we will camp some distance off.

There will be a clearly marked area for us at both camps.

Let me get the exact locations posted up for you guys.

In the meantime decide if you are camping both nights up top or in both spots...

Wife booked the Sunday off so she'll be with us and we'll be heading up Friday. Will probably head straight up to End Camp if you need anyone up at SAG 3 to help out there?

Just an informative FYI (I think that is redundant) to anyone new to the Fat Tire Ride (like myself), go to the official website to learn what this event is really about.

http://www.flag2gc.com/

Keep in mind that this is an event that stone (Marchal) invites AZXC along every year to help out with. It is not an AZXC sponsored event, kinda like the Desert Triathalon only Fat Tire is for charity. [ThumbsUp]

Having not been myself, most veterans will say that the riders are usually appreciative that we are there to help out. Plus, we get to eat and drink afterwards. laugh

It's gonna be a kick a$$ time. I can't believe I;m actually gonna make it this year!

No worries. You know that I had to call you out because I've been busted a few times for not reading the beginning of the thread.

I'd prefer camping up top to avoid having to set up twice.

The other advamtage is not having to worry about disturbing the riders before the big ride.

Please email me at stone@orbitelcom.com if you plan to attend so I get you registered.

Please send me your year make etc for your vehicle and your insurance policy number and carrier.

I'll need to know how many people will be with you so you can get the right amount of wrist bands for food.

I hear that they will have people checking that this year.

As always thanks for your support.
