I have been looking for something to do with my summer. Most everything is going to cost me...

Was thinking of doing a scenic run to Moab. Nothing Crazy. The hardest trail would be Hells Revenge.
I was looking a trails that would offer some great views and would still let my truck drive home dent free (fingers crossed)

White rim
Seven mile rim
Top of the world

All of these offer amazing views and seem to be geared to the stock crowd.

The plan:
Leave Thursday the 30th 1pm from the east side
Meet up with the West Siiiiiide at 2pm at at the Cheveron Carefee/17
We will pick up a rider in Flag at NAU and then next stop Moab.


Fuel: Its 490 miles each way to Moab. Fuel should be around $3.60gal. Plan on using a tank in Moab.
Food: You gan pick up all the food you need or want in Moab.

I am definitley interested and would bring the grand. I usually have a birthday thing in flagstaff that weekend, so I may have to head home on Sun instead of Mon.

In! So so so in.

I like it.

I have one solid yes so I moved the this tread to Up and come. The dates will be Thursday Aug 30th to Monday Sept 3rd.
You are welcome to join late or stay longer. These are just the dates I will be in Moab.


Say it with me... Moab... mOAb...MOAB!!!!!!

Yes! That way I can say bad things when you are ordering in the drive thru... ;)

Isn't there going to be cell phone coverage where you are going? ;-)

You don't need a CB for that, just yell.

But its soooo much more fun when you are in the middle of ordering a drink and then from in the cab comes "Do you have any balls?" Ask me how I know... <evil>

Hahaha how do you know that, good sir?

One of the guys fom NM did it my first trip to Moab. One of the group went to get food and he sat in the parking asking for black **** on the CB. Since we just got off the road the CB was up LOUD...

LOL that is fantastic.

how about a maybe yes. i am going to try and pin this down. have to see where i am at in season but i see a stash fund starting really quick here. mmmmmm moab (drool drool drool)

Because I have the best girl in the world, She has agreed to make this trip our "honeymoon" because that's the only way we can make this happen. We will go up with everyone on Thursday, and assuming we are all camping together (would be awesome) We will do that, then get a hotel for Monday and Tuesday night, and head home Wednesday. So the sooner we can figure out "living" arrangements for the nights we are all together would be awesome. We can't afford to get a hotel for the entire time, so camping on the cheap is preferred for us.

Sounds good to me, is this something we need to call ahead for or is it first come first serve?
