[HardhatD]

We missed last year...but are hoping to be there this year! Will my boys be bigger than the biggest tire? That is the question.

 

[Amer-team]

hard hat, may miss you this year as I am supporting the PBR guys next weekend with a Vietnam display. Are you up for some Desert Storm at the Auburn Parade this year? It is time for a 25th anniversary salute. Not sure how many tan vehicles we can scrounge up, but would really appreciate you there. It should be 5 NOV this year. P

 

[SEMPERI]

[NEWFISHER]

BUMP. I'm coming!

When/time are you leaving PDX and do you want to caravan up? I will be coming through around 19:00

 

[brianp454]

There are a couple here in The Republic that are planning to leave early Friday.
We talk about the AM, but lunchtime is more likely.

Where are you coming from?
Starting before 3PM every day it's stop and go on 5 N beginning at Capitol\Barbour all the way to the Interstate bridge.
I205 isn't usually any better in the evenings.

[NEWFISHER]

Coming from Eugene area. Every time I try to leave early on a Friday and North, I spend more time waiting in traffic than driving. If I wait until 5pm here and then leave, I miss Salem traffic and hit PDX S. about 6:45 missing most of it also. My plan is to leave just after 5pm here.

Hope to see you there! I haven't heard back from Aaron on directions yet.

I cant believe I forgot to post. I am going. But whether I bring the deuce or not has yet to be decided. Its having serious electrical issues and currently it drains fully charged batteries over night. I'm also pretty sure my alternator died too. I'm debating if the gamble is worth it. Mostly because if I do drive it up, I'll prob just disconnect the electrical system and run a wire directly to my gauge cluster so I at least have Oil pres and water temp, But wouldn't have lights or anything so.... I'd also have to have someone pull/push start my truck if I don't park it on a hill =P.

Is your slave connecter still hooked up? I have a slave cable and could just give you a jump start! I don't like volunteering other people to do things, but you may want to ask Dan to take a look at your truck to see what is up!

 

[REDROCKET]

Just confirmed a 2nd Ural to the gathering! My friend Jack and his wife are traveling from MN to WA and back. He will be in the area on Saturday and will try to make it in time for the parade.

I'm sad I can't go. Even have someone else coming from Eugene I could convoy with.
But my wife would not speak to me if I went alone, Worst than that when I make her really mad she quits cooking for me!
I pretty sure that going by myself would put her in the really mad category. (Might be worth it anyways)

Have fun
John

Hey John,

You wouldn't be going alone, you could convoy with me! My wife is heading over to Relay for Life with a bunch of gals so its works out perfect
