Default Colorado Get Together ASAP!!!

Seems that we have a pretty good size group forming out here in CO!

Three times as many Colorado guys as there were just 6 months ago!!

We need to have a get together. The weather has been pretty mild this winter but most of my courses are under snow. Let's get serious about a time and place.....soon!

I did! I'm back!!!
Actually...I'm doing everything in my power.....not to move back!

I would love to have it at my secret location in Kansas again but I'm afraid that there will be too much snow. I think we should really look into having it at Castlewood Canyon Park. I think we could tuck ourselves away....way back in the canyon where no one could even care if we were back there.

I'm in, I was at Red Rocks today. I don't think anyone will bother us, it's in an area that people are allowed to be. But, I'll go wherever, just let me know. ;)

What's up with the Duke?
Did an Indian kill it?

I think CastleWood Canyon or Redrocks would make perfect spots. Let's pick one.....and a date....and get it DONE!

how about the 19th or 20th?

this weekend i'm snowboarding, but the 19th or 20th would work great. i can drive as far north as well, wyoming, and as far south as colo springs, so red rocks or castle wood canyon would work great.

i'll come for sure if you guys will let me bring my scaler.....i'd bring my nitro X-Factor but it's too loud.

but yeah, basically any weekend i'm free, except for this weekend cuz i'm snowboarding.

19th or 20th would be my first choice

Default Scouting pics.

Here's a couple pics from the spot I'm talking about, for a future get together. It's got a combo of steep slickrock and boulders.

Thanks, it's a fun area with a lot of lines to play on.

The clod is 17 1/2" WB he narrowed the stock rims and siped the tires. It works pretty good, he wants a couple lathe motors for it. I told him they were scarce right now.

I can possibly do the 26th, but the 27th is out for me for sure. I am outta town most of that weekend, but I get in on the 25th, but I will be playing catch up with school, and the 27th is my grandmothers bday, so that is out.

Plus, I am not sure when I will the tuber finished up. Got started over the weekend, but the neighbors werent too happy with me welding out front of my apartment door!!

It's actually at Red Rocks ampitheater, there are tons of lines to play on. It's great for scale rigs too, there are lines ranging from super easy to totally impossible. A stock TLT could have just as much fun as a full on comp rig.
