Meet & Greet & local run suggestions

Careful that might go to my head!

Damn is that a big enough avitar/picture? Sequoia.

Yeah, I've actually already resized it (about twenty mintues ago), havne't quite gotten around to uploading it though...Thought it would do a bit of scaling for me, guess my hopes were too high!

Sorry Mike,

That is the scheduled Hammers trip for NAXJA & SoCalXJ people. Goatman is the organizer for this one. Wow, this is getting harder all the time :roll: :roll:
 
Well, it's going to be hard to find a time that most who are interested can get together. Like I've said already, and Mark brought up again, we don't need a physical meeting to organize and start a chapter. I posted the requirements but they got lost in the crash, so I need to post them again. I'm pretty familiar with the process and will gladly answer any questions. I wouldn't mind doing a chat if it's a time that I'm available, but that would be almost impossible for me until after March 1st. If you all want to talk and throw out all the questions you have, I'll post answers as soon as I can. I'll also start another post with a list of the requirements.

If we all want to meet, I'd like to be there, but if I can't that's just the way it is. The only days I could do it would be Sunday March 2nd, April 12-13 during our JV run, or on Sunday April 27 after the Santiago event. I have a 30th anniversary trip in March, and also a family wedding with a whole crowd of out of town guests staying at my house the last weekend in March, and I work every other weekend. A run can still be planned for fun and those who can make it can talk about the chapter, and we can discuss the chapter with whoever makes it out to JV in April, and then do the final business on the web.

If you could get the requirements up again

I think we could get the ball rolling without an in person meeting. ALso I suggest that we adopt national bylaws instead of writing our own, which means we would need 5 bodies for BOD: I volunteer for any position except treasurer and I believe so does Seqouia. ANy other takers?

Meeting at JV to discuss the Chapter formation is good for me, and it may offer others a good look at some of the trails (without a condition to run any of the trails).
 
I should be able to come out to JV on the 12th as well, I won't be running anything though becuase everybody will just be laughing at my little red Jeep that couldn't.

And yeah, I'll do whatever is needed of me minus money. And I'll make myself available for a chat sometime.
 
I'll be out there as well taking pictures and walking trails unless I can find a seat... My jeep is afraid of JV. Last time I tried to get out there just to watch it ate its alternator, we'll see what breaks this time...
 
[quote:47171d88cf="Anonymous"]MJR, are you thinking of a front loccker soon ?

I have a PowerTrax No Slip waiting when the guy gets it for me (long story). I plan on running this for a while. The Eaton Elocker won't be available for a D30 till sometime in 04 from what I have been told and that is what I really want.
 
Hey, where has this been hiding? I just Pay Pal'd my dues in yesterday. Big bear is good, less than an hour away. Unless you crawl up from silverwood, through Pinnicles & deep creek. Btw, the OHV area @ Cleghorn Rd. is closed, but the willow fire area behind Arrowhead is open as of last year.
Any weekend in March or April is good.
 
So, it looks like we'll use the SoCal XJ run to Johnson Valley on April 12 to discuss forming a chapter. Mil is going to make his famous Carne Asada again, so if you want to come out bring something to throw in and have dinner. I told Mil we'd kick in to help him pay for the food. We can discuss the chapter after we finish the trails on Saturday evening around dinner and the campfire.

If you're not set up for those trails come and ride along with someone, there should be enough empty seats. We are going to do an introductory run on one of the easier trails, probably Clawhammer, so if you haven't ever run these trails you can get a taste for what it's like. We'll also run one of the harder trails, maybe Sledgehammer, so there will be two runs on Saturday. Some of the Sierra Chapter folks will also be joining us for the weekend.

Should be fun......always is out there. :D

There are easier routes to explore, but you'd have more fun riding along with someone on the harder trails.
