That sounds great. We should still be here. We are always up for company.

Perfect, that means we'll have at least one truck that isn't broke.

(I hope I don't come off sounding like an ass, but:

This group, plus a couple of others, plan on running some of the very hardest trails where broken parts and body damage isn't just possible, but most likely. Therefore, we need to limit ourselves to one or two more trucks at the most on those days, otherwise the trails won't be completed and a fun day will quickly turn into a nightmare.

If you want to run Pritchett, or some of the others on that level, find some folks that want to run it with you. Just keep your group relatively small.

Everyone wants to wheel with everyone throughout the week, and anyone can run any trail at anytime, but group size needs to be limited on many of the trails. I can't imagine how long it would take to push 20+ trucks through Hell's at a fun, easy pace.)

Ditto

I think this has been touched on before.

It took 9 or 10 hours for 9 or 10 trucks to do PS/GS and some were complaining of the pace then as we were trying to avoid the all day/night affair that occured on the last trip that was made.

It's no for someone to be stuck at the back of a large pack and not get to wheel the same as those further up the line.

Smaller groups are a must.

[KenP]

We just hung at the rear of the line on Hell's. We'd sit around and talk for 20-30 minutes, then we'd speed off, catch the group, park and sit around again. Yippee!!!!----.....

I think you guys are getting prematurely excited.
Usually there aren't 20 rigs that show up.

No matter, we are still limiting the size of our group on certain trails.

Doesn't mean if someone wants to run the same trail, they don't do it in another group right behind or another day. It only makes sense to break up into smaller groups when hitting the harder trails and we are likely going to be breaking at least one thing on each truck.

Rocks is going to break one thing SEVERAL times.

It's not something I planned on.
And I agree about the smaller groups, at least on a couple of trails. It's really going to be something if that many people show up. As far as the waiting game goes, it's part of wheeling.

X2: we need to set up groups of 6 or less for the harder trails like Golen Spike, Pritchett, or Behind the Rocks and BFE Area.

I also think it;s best for newb's to get a feel for their comfort level on a couple of easier trails first. Also for them to know what their truck is capable of doing on the slick rock.

I'm sure most going on this trip will be fine. ...just an idea.

Kane Creek would be a good one for some to sample if they think they'll want to run harder trails. The paint scratches alone will be worth the trip.

Really tho, it's all about everyone having fun and you won't have fun spending 15+ hours on a trail while getting you're truck dented and broken.

There're too many awesome, tough, fun trails that won't hurt your truck to run if you don't have experience or a high tolerance for body damage.

Also, don't forget the high tolerance required for urination.

I still laugh when I think of you carrying on a conversation around the pool whilst peeing through the fence rails. You didn't miss a beat.
