Maybe someday I'll be able to come to Tennesse or NC for an event someday! Reading about them sure makes me want to participate, and I could definately pull it off now that I'm single but need to get a bit more situated at my new job first.
BTW...and I'm not the superstitous type, but have any of you ever heard of the "Pine Barrens Devil"? I saw a "reality" show that mentioned the Pine Barrens recently and apparantly this is one of the many stories that relate to that area of NJ. Just curious...LOL!
It was Zepher in his RS actually. And that pit was on the other side of the tracks from where we left you when your trooper died.
The deleted pic is a pic of Doug aka Treekilla knocking over a dead tree with his montero's ARB bumper. We didn't want the tree-huggers to mis-construe a picture into something it wasn't. If you really want to see it e-mail me and I'll give you the private.html for it.
When: Saturday Jan 19 Where: Pine Barrens (Lebanon State Forest, NJ) Meet: Intersection of Rte 70 and 72 near Whiting, NJ Time: 10:45-11am Who: AWD/4wd Vehicles (no 2wd please) What: Off-road Trail Ride through the barrens, will be fun for all, we encourage Subarus, Rav4s, CRVs, Isuzus, Highlanders, 4-runners, Santa Fe, Explorers, etc.
If you haven't heard,'ZuZoo V will be held May 16-19, 2002 in Moab, Utah. In excess of 100 vehicles are expected, with multiple trail runs each day, through some of the most scenic country imaginable.
You are right. I went up to Buffalo to see the Pittsburgh Penguins play the Sabres in the playoffs last year and we went over to the Anchor inn and ate after the game. i couldn't remember the name of the bar though!
I am probably driving home. Hadn't thought about it. I am not against having a couple and sleeping over. I won't be able to decide until a little closer to the event.
Probably do dinner and head home afterward, but won't know til later on, it's not a warm fuzzy community up there apparently. The locals dislike the Paragon Park because it basically was used by them freely til the owner decided/realized he owned it and could make some $ by having the off-road park.
Info on a gently off-road experience in the Pine Barrens of Central/Southern NJ. Come on out for a day of adventure, fun, and comradre with fellow SUV/Off-road/Rally/Car Nuts! Info at http://isuzu-suvs.com/events
Just an FYI, Planet Isuzoo will be having a camping and off-road trip to Uwharrie, NC April 26-28. Everyone is invited! Details on the http://isuzu-suvs.com/events page.
It's 531miles from Butler, PA to Uwharrie, NC. I think its 560 from NYC->Uwharrie, NC.
Usually what happens is we drive down on a Friday night after work, get down there early Sat morning. Sleep in on Saturday do a noon run on saturday, an afternoon or evening run sat. Sat night we make a big dinner and hang around the campfire til late. Sunday do morning afternoon and evening runs. Big dinner sunday night, then head out 1st thing on Monday morning to return home.
Works out nicely. Hopefully you can make it, it's a great trip.
I am going to ask the wife tonight if she would care if I do it. I'll let you know. One thing though. I still haven't upgraded to OME coils and Ranchos so will I have any concerns about riding in a completely stock Trooper with 265 75-16s?
It's tents on nicely paved spots with electric outlets in the sites. I'm probably going to reserve a site or 2 for us so that we don't get locked out. We usually pile in as many as possible
Well I got the thumbs up from the wifey. I am going to do whatever I can to make sure I am there. Is there a posting about this over on the wire? i will take a look. Anyway if you can forward whatever detail you have about the weekend I would appreciate it. i believe you have my e-mail address so send whatever you can along.
Coming up in the Pine Barrens of NJ. Check out http://isuzu-suvs.com/events/pb-09-21-02/index.html for details. It's a very tame/beginner trailride. All are welcome to come on down and join the fun and get your SUVs dirty!
Are there a lot of family members along on these outings? Are there activities for them while the Troopers are on the trail? Do you take them with you while trailriding or is it normally drivers only?
Generally the whole family will ride out on the trail. Or in the case of uwharrie they can hang at the campsite area. This last weekend we went to uwharrie and it was 1/3 offroading, 1/3 yap session, and 1/3 culinary extravaganza!
