http://atkinsweb.com/shared/misc/Adam_Bars.JPG and I were just talking about our departure to Moab and thought we'd post a thread.

We are leaving mid afternoon on SUNDAY, April 8th for Moab. The plan is to meet at my place, drool over my new garage, then head to Moab. All westbound travelers are welcome to participate in the caravan. Bring your Peeps because sunroof launching will be a mandatory activity.

If anyone else wants to come, I'll PM you my address/contact info.

We'll be leaving Denver on Monday.

Wife hasn't seen her friends there for a couple of years. We should get there Friday night, but she pretty much has all of our time there scheduled already - the price I pay to get to go to Moab.

At the end of the week, we'll probably leave Moab on Saturday.

Now the wife just found out her sister from L.A. is going to be in Denver that weekend - they'll just have two nights with their Indonesian friends, so I doubt I'll be able to get away. :(

Cool.

However, my neighborhood has convenants that allow a maximum of 500 gallons of rooftop gasoline in the driveway. You and Adam might get me in trouble. :D

Make it 11:30 so we can have brunch at Alan's house and still be on our ay to Moab on time.

I just finished installing the other mounts on the H3 rack today. now I just have to wire up the CB, weld up some sleeves so I have removeable "tips," and the "3" will be ready to go.

Sweet! The convoy is growing :cool:

Hopefully it'll dry out around here tomorrow so I can bust out the rattle can. Need to paint my hubs, caps and '06 mirror chrome deal.

Corey et all

I will send out a PM with directions to my house. If you want it to go to your personal email, first PM with the email address.

One other alternative would be to use Google maps to find my garage. Search on any of the following terms: MASSIVE, DROOL, WE BOW DOWN, etc.

OldHiker

03-25-2007, 02:55 PM

Tried that. Kept on showing mine!
