Covered in Dust 163 Posted July 23, 2010 A group of us from SDAR are planning a ride to Cabo in Late Oct to early Nov. We have a chase truck but our chase drivers have dropped out. If anyone is interested in driving chase let me know. We will be covering all expenses including flight back from Cabo (I'm driving the truck back). We also might take turns driving chase one day each on the way down but we are open to other ideas. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could ask her if she still wants, but that may include cancelling other plans she has. Why don't we just ride back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Covered in Dust 163 Posted July 26, 2010 I'm up for riding back. We need to check with the rest of the group about time off. Most are good with 1 week off I'm not sure how many can spare more time. cn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crawdaddy 96 Posted July 27, 2010 Most are good with 1 week off I'm not sure how many can spare more time. That wouldn't work for me.......I'm still trying to figure out time/$$ for ONE week.....(just dropped BIG $ on some truck maintenance ) Another option would be to have one group of riders head down........another group of riders head back on the same bikes.....my WR250R would laugh at that endurance test.......a couple thousand miles ........BFD .........might require an air filter cleaning, that's about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Covered in Dust 163 Posted July 27, 2010 I'm still on for the chase truck. I started this ride so if I have to I'll drive the truck. But Gene is pretty sure he can get a couple of guys if needed. I just thought we could throw it out to SDAR and see if anyone else was up for an adventure. Chris N. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
