Gents,

Looks like ill have to miss a day of work. Im down for a 1:30/2:30 meetup in Victorville.


Im a little confused about the final location can we get "a this is the spot" I know we are outside of Bastow but are we going off the 15 or the 58?

LOCATION UPDATE:

OK, guys sorry to change things on you, but a few of you had some concerns about the location we have (this has nothing to do with what was posted on Saturday) 1. was the proximity to nearby houses - even though the nearest house is about 2 miles away when you have a bunch of SS's and noisey trucks together it tends to amplify it just that much and we want to be polite to our neighbors 2. there was not a good backdrop for what are needs are, that not need explanation.
I went out this weekend and did some recon and found a location that is atleast 8 miles from the nearest home, has a good backdrop, is in the same general area and is hidden in the hills. This location is set in stone and will not be changed.

35.139213,-117.05533 - Google Maps
I look forward to seeing all you guys there.

Oh, and for the guys that will be traveling from hwy 58 onto Lennox there is a junk yard of MV's on Santa Fe rd. if anyone needs parts we have somewhere to go local. Here are some pics.
Funny thing is the 5 ton in the 2nd pic is exactly like mine and was parked next to it when I won it from GL. Kind of sad to see it there hopefully someone buys it and brings it back to life.

Awesome!! This is gonna be awesome!!!

 

[Cycletek]

Those vehicles show up on Google!!! When will you be at the location Fast?

 

[FASTNOVA]

I'll be headed up Thursday after work. I expect to be there by 8pm if everything goes as planned.

 

[Cycletek]

Ok I will probably head up there Friday by way of 14 to 58 since I live in Canyon Country. I will leave a bit earlier to avoid traffic!

If you could get there early so no one else can get our spot that would be great.

Hey are you gonna throw up some plates/signs for the rest of us to get to you exact location?

Tell ya what boys, I miss my junk. Maybe a day trip is in order Maybe a can con a couple of oldie oldsters to come along.

I might be up for a day trip.I'll have to see how work shakes out the days leading up to the 13th.

 

[FASTNOVA]

It would be great to have you guys there. If you do show up I'll treat you to some carne asada and a cold beverage.

NOOOO! No signs, no smoke signals, no arrows drawn in the sand, no NOTHING. It's survival of the fittest if you get lost you will wind up wandering the desert for years, so pack plenty of water. If you can't read a map too bad, you're on your own or I guess I can put up some signs pointing the way.

HAHA Hey I love a challenge, I let my Co. Pilot drive and recon on my bike. Well i may do that any way..

It seems fairly strait forward to get there. But i remember dirtbag last year took a little while to find in the dark.

So either way!

Have we agreed upon a CB channel (ch.25 was suggested earlier) and a freq. for the Hammies?
