^^^ What tootsie said, please ^^^

OK

Yippeeee! Another victim, er, driver!!! OUTSTANDING! I can't wait to see the Rhino! Did you make reservations in Needles yet? Do they still have rooms?

Look forward to meeting you!

Sean

Hummbebe, you are remembering thats the same dates as the NCHG snow run right? I was a little torn between the two but this one being a two day with camping and FIRE involved....well, no brainer!


Let me know if you want to caravan down. I plan to leave fri early-mid afternoon.

Your H3 right? I'm looking forward to seeing it in action. I plan to buy the wife one when the H2 is paid for.

Don't flake out now, ya hear!! I'm all the set up to steal the DVD player and watch chick flix witch ya!!!

Oh no....chik flix????? The last time I drove Mojave, I was alone and spent three nights out there. Two John Wayne movies and one Clint Eastwood.

Sean

Maybe you answered this and I missed it, Sean ...

How many trucks can travel on one permit? Any limit?

Don't know how you feel about it but the-more-the-merrier does have limits. Once we get up over a dozen it's a whole different ball game -- the train gets way long and the odds of a breakdown go way up. Cap at 15?

i am clearing my calander as we speak, er type.
we'll take a super delux cabin at the hotel needles

"Super delux" and "needles" should not appear in the same sentence.

It'll be good to see you and the wife again. You bringing the H2 or the H3?

Anybody from the CA group a ham with mobile capabilities?

We could easily exceed that at the rate we're going.

I see a few on your list that were on my list, too, (like me, for example) but we can add at least three more at this time. They're not forum regulars. I still have a bunch of fence sitters, a few of which will likely come.

If we cap at 15, we'll probably end up with 10-12. Trucks break, plans change. A dozen is a nice size group. Big enough to be fun and diverse, small enough to get down the trail at a reasonably good pace.

Here's a bit of trivia for you: Did you know the best hotel in Baker is called the Bun Boy Motel? Anyone know anything about this place?

I only know that some guy who owns it drives a Jeep.

I did a recon yesterday to check out my GPS plotting and some parts of "the Road." And the road is GOOD!

Here are some pics...

more...

and some more...

Soda Lake...

lastly...

I am definitely going to be there. C'mon SEWIE!!! You gotta go !

PS . Chick Flix will be watched while you are are doing your "Blazing Saddles" part around the campfire.

No offense but, it's not my thang

Outstanding pictures! That's some beautiful desert!

Thanks a million for making the scouting run.

BTW, who took the pics?

And seriously, what do you know about the Bun Boy Motel? If I can't get a first-hand accounting of the place, I may have to drive to Baker to check it out. At least three of us are plannning to stay in a hotel Saturday night and I don't want to be the guy to recommend a flop house.

Confirming I will be there unless someone dies or my truck breaks. Still working on having a navigator.

Anybody beside me and Hummbebe coming down I5 who wants to caravan?

I've read a whole bunch of web stuff about the Bun Boy Motel. Found a few blogs where people posted their observations, etc.

Bottom line, it's clean, next to a 24 hour coffee shop, has A/C and cable and you can park in front of your room. (Try doing that at the Bellagio!)

For those of us that are hoteling it, the Bun Boy is the Baker Bellagio. $64.20 per night for a single queen bed; $69.95 per night for two queen beds. Number is 760.733.4252. That's a new number -- the numbers on the web don't work. They changed the name, too. It's now the Country Store.

I'm there and reservations are made!

The Bun Boy Motel changed its name????? Wait till GLAD hears about this. You'll get no sleep with them protesting out front.

"We're here. We're queer. We want the Rodster's beer!" Aaaaaaaaaaall night long....


Sean

Alright, Bundage Boy, that'll be enough outta you!

I kinda like this place ...

only 20 rooms and i have 1 of them, welcome to "motel california"

Yo Bond. Add one more H2. Just got a confirm.

This looks like fun! Rasor OHV = 22,500 acreas of play.

Yo Bond (if you ever get out of bed ), how much time will we have at Rasor and when will we have it? Saturday night or Sunday morning?

Yo Rodski. I never went to bed. I'm on a natural high these days - the desert just kinda does that to me!

Roger on the additional H2. We have to be rapidly approaching our 15 rig cut off??? OUTSTANDING!

As far as your choice of motels goes, okay. I won't say another word. Bunster Boy.

By the way, isn't typing while on the upswing of a manic depressive cycle fun?

As far as when we hit Rasor OHV goes, there is a change in our schedule! Because of the # of rigs, I'm afraid we will take longer and not make it across the lake before nightfall (Rasor is on the far side of Soda Lake)soooooooooo... Is it, would it, can it be possible to start out a little earlier? Say 7:30 or 8 instead of 8:30? If not, it's okay - but it might mean a little less twilight driving. AND we will camp at 17 Mile Point - which is right at Kelbaker Road for those heading north to Rodster's Bun Boy Motel and Massage Parlor.
That means we'll hit Rasor first thing Sunday morning and have a lot of time to play.

Lemme make a map up here tonight and post it so y'all know what I'm babbling about.

Check back shortly!


Sean

Uh oh. You're OCD and MD and you're heavily armed? Holy crap, I bet you're a real hoot when you're drunk.

Wow, a 7:30 meet means a 0600 lift-off from Vegas. That's brutal! I'd have to get up at 4 to have any hope at all of a successful AM BM. I'm not saying no but dang ...

If we do meet at 8:30, what's your ETA at 17 Mile Point?

Rasor in the morn sounds like a plan. Looks like there's a lot to do there so a good night of sleep will be excellent.

OC? Yep. MD? Yep. HEAVILY ARMED? Yep. A HOOT WHEN I'M DRUNK? Oh sweet Jesus you have no idea.....

We can easily keep the start at 8:30. The LAST thing I want to do is interfere with your AM BM. ROFLMFAO

IF we keep up a good head of steam, we SHOULD make it to Kelbaker Road (15 minutes from there to your gay bath house) just after nightfall. The last hour or so may be in twilight, or even in the dark, but it is nice, wide open, sandy wash and there'll be enough of us with good lights to make it not a problem don't you think?
It should be quite fun in the scawy scawy dawk.
