We will be cut loose on Friday around lunchtime, and some of the other competitors are thinking of doing some wheeling (possibly Moab, Johnson Valley or others depending on carnage from the week and such). We can cut out and head to Vegas again, pack the fork up and head home or try and get some wheelin in with the guys. Not sure about any of this at all, but I know I don't have any where to be on the following Monday so I am open to whatever.

Return Trip Options
1. Leave Friday at lunch and head to Johnson Valley/The Hammers (this seems to be the popular option on pbb right now)
Wheel Saturday
Head to El Paso Sunday morning (head across the border for some cultural exchange...)
Head to dexter hizzy Monday morning

2. Leave Friday at Lunch and head to Moab (~14 hours of driving to get there)
Wheel Saturday
Head to Amarillo Sunday morning
Head to dexter hizzy Monday morning

(w/ this option, if we push hard and swap drivers out we could make it home by early morning Monday I believe.)

Me drivin/riding.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Ok, that pretty much fills up the truck (as Brady will have the last seat on the way back).

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Did you want to bring Pigpen out w/ us? I haven't heard from DavidO yet (but just sent him an e-mail). I think I can make it pretty cheap on the fuel end of it if you want.

[Sharpe]

Probably not but I will retain the option of "maybe" until further notice.

[TdmayfieldIV]

So when will we be back?

[DRAGOONRANCH]

If we have to push it to get back, we can be back in by Sunday afternoon/evening I believe.

Kristin and I will be staying at Wild Bill's Saloon and Casino, it is right across from the Bellagio and you get access to the pool at the Flamingo. And they have parking for trailers but I think that all of the Casinos and hotels will.

Moab would be sweet to wheel on the way home.

i'm out

[TdmayfieldIV]

I think i can convince the parents to move my flight to the 20th. I'll keep you updated

[DRAGOONRANCH]

That would be great not havin to rush back and be able to get some wheeling in on the way back. Make a proper trip out of it for sure.

If I can't stay for the whole trip i'm not going to go. I don't want to cut your vacation short.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Yep, if we have time, we could get a good full day of wheelin in at Moab or JV which would be killer for sure. Now just have to get DavidO to commit, find someone else who wants to bring a rig, or find a car hauler/bumper pull to rent from someone (cough, cough, colman.. cough).
