rexr 0 Posted January 10, 2011 In! alyeska Sweet.. Hey Tom.. I think I have done a Jeep run or two with you and the Just Runs crew.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagstr 288 Posted January 10, 2011 Rex, Nice track, no matter how many times it is done. I plan to meet your group at Buttes Pass intersection, arriving 0900, ready to ride as you come by. 146.505 Radio link-up When we hit Grapevine, I will continue east toward Tamarisk Grove CG then connect to Buttes via Old Borrego Rd Pole Line. This will be a good track for those of us that can not devote three days to the KOA Glamis Fun-time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will try to be at Pinyon trailhead 8:00AM packing tools, extra tubes, and aired down knobbies if OK. Aired down knobbies are perfect.. We won't be on the asphalt much. Looking forward to meeting you.

Bagstr 288 Posted January 14, 2011 Rex, Do you still plan to travel through Buttes Pass and the Slot / Drop areas?? http://maps.google.c...4ee399f1c15e6f8 If so, I will be in the area ready to ride 0900-0930. Radio 146.505 0800 comes early to the Pinyon Trailhead, and I'm pretty lazy these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mxbundy 0 Posted January 16, 2011 Last check in. See everyone in the morning. Thanks for orginizing and leading the ride Rex! Wish I could have made it to lunch. Thanks to all the guys for the help! I am hoping (after viviting the LC4 thread at ADV) that it is just the water pump on my bike. Seems it is a week link. Bundy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
