Had a couple of friends going with me on this one, but they backed out. They were worried about snow over Donner. Guess I'll have to pass on this ride.
Please add me to the list. Jeff introduced us to Johnson Lane last year and now I am hooked. Great place to ride and camp!
Things are looking up, weather-wise. A couple of days ago, weather.com was predicting rain/snow Tuesday through Saturday Jan 12th, but today, they have revised to rain/snow Sunday, Monday and...
last year, it rained all week and cleared up Friday night. I thought I would never get all the mud off after the run!!
the only concern I have, in January, would be how steep the hill is dropping down from VC main drag down the hill to turn into the rv park. I remember people talking about ice, the year before,...
We are staying at the RV park in VC, on "F Street". Just one or two blocks, in the RZR, to the staging area. $39/night full hookups.
i spent $125 on heated seats kit and spent a few hours installing. Now I just turn up the heat when it gets cold.
We are taking our motor home and camping with another couple. Probably camp @ Johnson Lane or Washoe Lake, unless Jeff has a better suggestion. We did the Hotel thing last year but decided to camp...
I really enjoyed last year’s ride. Please add me to the list.
Definitely a great ride with GREAT people. We had 10 vehicles for the majority of the run with 2 or three other vehicles with Jeff's group, out ahead. Special thanks to Ben and his brother Greg...
This new tool got all four adjusted in 15 minutes... well... after taking 45 minutes to make the tool... I just cleaned the threads, and used some of my Gun Cleaning/Lubricating spray and then spun...
Heads up guys... slight change of plans that shouldn't negatively affect anyone (actually, I think it will make the ride better!!), but just wanted to let everyone know that we are tossing around the...
2842 Thanks! I don't know how you guys adjust these springs in a timely manner... My original tool is really hard to use on the front, particularly on the driver's side. I took 45 minutes and...
All loaded except for my ice chest. I have my springs jacked up, nut not quite as high as jeepalive. I have high clearance lower arms and about 17.5-18 inches clearance at the belly with 32" tires,...
With all that, the talent just might run out but hopefully someone will get a great video when it does! LOL
Hadn't even thought about it. Often times, on Rubicon, we have a potluck, but that is when I am in my Landcruiser with lots of room to carry stuff; We usually have "Taco Night" where everyone brings...
Neil, I was hoping you would slide in sideways at the last minute! Let me know if you need help setting up your new RZR when you get it, so we can have you on the next one. Everything healing OK,...
checkrs2 151.505 is what Ben specified on the last run so we'll go with that.
We will be camped just in from the trailhead Friday night. I will make sure to walk you, (and any others that don't come in until the morning), in Saturday morning, sometime around 7:30-8:00 Camp...
About 2.5 Weeks to go... Any questions regarding what to bring or setup of the vehicle? I will be leaving Oroville at around 1:30-2:00pm on Friday, Aug 17th which should put me up there around...
Welcome to the group! Some of us here are into rock crawling and, like me, started crawling in a 4x4. In addition to my Rzr's, I also have a Landcruiser that was on the Rubicon Trail a couple of...
Ahhh... that makes sense. I thought maybe someone returned it with the extra fitting installed... then I realized that the fitting at the end of the braided steel line was 1/8" pipe and so was the...
I bought a new Empire fuel rail right after I saw the "failed Shasta-Chappie pre-ride" fire, but I finally installed it tonight. The only thing that threw me for a loop was a quick connect fitting...
Yeah... we are not going there... my wife can read these posts! Someone is going to get a REALLY good deal after I die and she sells everything for what I told her I have invested...
A woman decides to have a face lift for her 50th birthday. She spends $15,000 and looks sensational.
On her way home, she stops at a news stand to buy a newspaper. Before leaving, she says to the...
