TSF Noobfest: 5/8

[TORX]

We'll be rollong on CH4 in the morning. Depending on the amount of traffic on the channel, we may switch to a different one at TSF.

I will also have an FRS radio as well for those without CB's.

The route I have planned is pretty tame, but there will be a few spots that will be a definite challenge for some.

I'm looking over group leaders/tail gunners now. Because of the insane turnout we're going to have, I may split us up into three or even four groups. I'm surprised at how much this run has been cross posted, and spread through word of the mouth. Next year we may have to look at making this an "official" event.

"Noobfest 2011: Last run before the end of time!" Has kind of a good ring to it, does it not?

I think its so popular because of a lot us newbies are looking for low key trails and to go with other vehicles of the same kind help. Make you think more on the lines of, "if he can do it, I can to." At least this is the way I feel. I have a few buddies that have yota's on 38.5" Trxus MT's and he wants me to go with him. But me at 3.5" with 30 BFG KM's don't have a chance. This run sounds like a blast and a great way to meet some locals.:farmer:

Dustin, Me and justin are planning to attend, but we have talked about showing up to see the turn out and possibly splitting off to run our own trails

I am thinking that maybe our idea could be used to maybe get a group of guys that might possibly want to run a little more moderate line of trails. maybe for a few guys that arnt too new to wheeling, or have a small lift/31s, etc etc Let me know if this might be a workable idea? At this rate i think we just might fill rogers parking lot. witch is GREAT! but maybe we could break it up into a couple of groups and different lines of trails and all meet back at like lyda for lunch?

I like it! That would work out great, and if you could take a small group, even better.

As far as lunch goes, the half way point for the route is basically Lyda. Not sure how we'll do on time, but I'm thinking around 1:00. Plan a route, and we can go over it on Saturday. I know we'll definitely have two groups for beginners (I'll take one, and I'm thinking Dave will take another), plus the possibility of yours, and I believe another club will be up there for a beginner run as well (not sure if they will run with us or not).

ODF is staging at 8:30, so hopefully Rogers will clear out a little by the time our army starts arriving around 9. Like I said before lets try to meet at the far end of Rogers near the back to keep the entrance clear.

Is there going to be Convoy on the Westside?

I believe SpikeyPuck is coming form Beaverton. I usually roll out from there, but I will be up in Vancouver friday night, and leaving from the north.



Dustin, I will run/lead whatever. I am just excited to run some trails and cruze with you all again. Feels like its been forever..

FYI...
I'll be joining a few rigs at the Cornelius Pass Chevron @ 8am.
Anyone is welcome to join us if interested. It'd probly be a good idea to post up if you plan to, that way I'll know to wait for you!

 

[bdr529]

Count me in for this run, as long as nobody minds me driving a JK.

 

[spikeypuck]

Yea but I a little off in the head. I like to get to places early. I will be pulling out of Beaverton around 7:30. Mainly because I don't have quick discos for my sway bar yet, and don't like to be the person holding people up. However if some people from the west side are wanting to wagon train. I could just disconnect before I leave the house.

Torx throw me in whatever group you would like. Just make sure ill get stuck and get to break in my winch. Or should I just dump it in my ditch again and try there? :confused1 lol

We also have a south end convoy meeting at the Costco on Mission St. (Hwy22) in Salem at 6am. Contact Bronzewyrm for details.

For the guys on the west side, Bloodtype_Jeep has a few rigs meeting at the Cornelius Pass Chevron at 8am. Contact Bloodtype_Jeep if you're interested in joining.

Simple Trail Expectations:

-Leave the alcohol at home and off the trail.
-Make an effort to keep the language in check.
-Always keep the person behind you in sight. This means at turns wait for them. If we all do this, nobody should ever become separated form the group.
-Give the person in front of you plenty of space on the trail. This becomes important on hills and obstacles, in case they need to backup.
-If you see quads or motorcycles behind you, pull off at the next avaiable spot to let them pass.
-Slow down when entering staging areas or campgrounds (please keep your speed down when entering Rogers in the morning; there will be a lot of people there).
-Lastly, STAY ON THE DESIGNATED TRAIL! If you're hung up on an obstacle ask for some help rather than creating your own bypass around it.

I think that's about it.

 

[FiveNdime]

I was wondering if any of you could bring a tire pump that hooks up to your battery that we can air up tires with it would be a great idea to do so. I will bring my air along but if we have 30 rigs to fill its gonna take forever with a few pumps.:shocked:

 

[Outdoors]

Count me in for this run, as long as nobody minds me driving a JK.

No problem here, just bring it... Besides, it's an open run !
I'm brining my LJ.

 

[mopar440]

There's air @ the Shell station you'll be passing on the way up there... so on the way back to civilization, if you have not already aired-up, there ya go... costs 50 cents, don't last very long, but ya know... plus it's not a huge deal to do it when ya get back home... have run 11 pounds in 35's on my former TJ with no ill effects, and it's a 90 mile one-way trip for me! Just sayin'...

I know Torx has OBA. if you need it im sure he is willing to show it off a little. But be cautious. once you see someone elses OBA system. it will make you go home and make one yourself.
