Re: WF ideas!
I agree, although having informal runs is kind of nice and relaxing. It may attract more people and people from other areas if we can advertise WF as a two day event.

Re: WF ideas!
I disagree on mandatory CB. I would keep them as strongly advised. I would not want to turn away a participant due to lack of CB.
I would like to see a More dificult green run though. Like Macgyvers on Friday. Still a great Winterfest. Last edited by XJ Stryker; March 7th, 2010 at 15:40. |

Re: WF ideas!
I don't know. At very least there should be a drivers meeting with your trail leader after the the main drivers meeting. To go over what to do along the trail.

Re: WF ideas!
things i learned...
I counted 33 at Robies...great turn-out! I may be the oldest fart here...if not, top three probably. Brad and Neal and their turkey fryer ROCK! the time has come to break up Green to beginners and moderate. we need to do a buddy system. New peoplke need one person they know they can go to for questions and answers. more later... BOB

I agree that green was too big this year. We had two groups last year, and it seems like more people ran it this year so I don't know why we only had one. Nature kept trying to split us into two groups anyway! I am suggesting that we might split it by people who are attending WF for the first time and may not know all the rules (such as "clearing" people before they head over a hill) and people who have wheeling experience but don't have rigs capable enough for orange or who just want an easier trail ride that day.

Overall though I can't complain, I think things went very smoothly. |

Re: WF ideas!
One idea to make things easier for the leaders and gunners. An extra color coded sticker to give a quick differentiation of builds so they know who is
in their group and where they should be placed in line. The leader would get a quick general picture of what the rig is built like. For example those little colored circle stickers, just throw it on next to the inspection sticker: ![]() Green - Mild build or stock, open open, no winch, small tires White - Light build, at least one winch or locker, mt's Orange - Medium build, at least one locker and winch, larger mt's Red - Heavy build, fully locked, winch, large mt's |

This would require more stringent tech inspection, to include the actual build details of the rig. Then you don't have people where they don't belong. |

Re: WF ideas!
I am in agreeance w/ the 2 day run as well.
Tighter tech inspections. More will come to me after I have time to unpack and get unwound from the drive.... |
