Default Where did everyone go?

It looks like everyone stops crawling for the summer.

I haven't seen any posts in weeks.

WASSUP?

HELL, I was looking forward to running MORE in the summer - no rain, no snow, nice and warm . . . Lipos run better/longer when they're warm . . .

I still want to do an all day fun run out at San Ysidro. Maybe bring out a small grill and grill up some brats with a cold beer . . .

I've been mountain biking 5 to 6 miles a day, 4 times a week - it's not that hot!

Anybody interested in putting together a fun run event?

Anyone?

that was fun. found some new lines and ,don't take this the wrong way, kinda made it up "mitch's crack", with the "hand of god". sorry no one else showed.

what will get more people out? more advanced notice? or make a "summer series" with a jackpot maybe?

Sorry I didn't show. I didn't think anyone was going to go, so I made other plans.

OH WELL, next time . . .

I am going to set up a fun run out at San Ysidro the weekned before the 4th of July. Look for a new post soon.

Nothing against Bobby or hobby Proz, but they are a bit overpriced on theirs. I can order a set shiped for less. Just gotta get around to it.

At times it is... But I still like to support my LHS as much as I can... and I still get alot of stuff from them. But like you said, at time you can find stuff cheaper on line. I can't wait till they start getting in RC4WD stuff!

Bobby has not told me all of what they will be getting, but he has submited the papers to them. From what I gather, he will have full access to RC4WD stuff.
