I'd send the wife, but I think the Duramax would sink clear to china...

Since I'm not going, I'm counting on you guys to convince Geoff (if he's going) to go through the mud pit with his toyota. Get lots of videos and pictures.

Last time some one sunk a full size pickup it took three guys winching plus a dead weight behind them to get him out.

With all the flood advisories for tonight and tommorow Im not even gonna try to travel any where tommorrow. So Im gonna pass on this trip. Its not worth me traveling 2 1/2 hours in this type of weather for a few hours of fun.

Keep an eye on this thread. Matt and I are thinking about going even if it rains just for the hell of it. I'll post a no go tomorrow morning if we decide not to do it.

Here's the latest weather report for tommorow, it looks like 60-80% chance of rain until 11:00am decreasing to 20-30% (aka. possible sprinkles) for the rest of the afternoon and moving to mostly cloudy/some sun around 3:00pm.

As of the current report it looks like it won't be dumping while we are there so we will just have to contend with the mud left over from the morning's rain.

Here is some motivation:

And just for fun some anti-motivation (speed = bad)

I am out, seeing as that I am at work today. Bah.

Have fun.
Geoff

This is still on!

Johns, we might be a tad bit late, just hang out at the 4x4 course and we should see you there around 12:30ish.

Sweet I just got out of bed.

So, how was the run? I have to experience it vicariously through you guys since I'm in Phoenix visiting my brother-in-law now.

Well, the run was fun, I broke my Rubicon, the other John broke his Xterra lol.

I will be posting pics soon. I am resizing them now.

Was fun, but I won't be doing the mud pit again, having your alternator die and leave you stuck in south San Jose is no the way to end a fun day.

Here is a quicky....

More to come

Few more and I am going to bed.

I have an alternator to change in the morning!










Fun stuff!

Great trip! I had fun doin donuts in the mud . Here are the few pictures I took.

So what's up in the pic where Greg is strapped to Huey which is facing Matt? I see that he is in the log obstacle again...

I think that Matt needs to get something bigger so that he prevent that in the future. :p

Geoff

Nice pics

Mud = 10 min of fun and 5 hrs of cleaning up

Hmmmm... Mud...

Forget the mud I got to play in flooded streets this morning.

Kevin,

I've read the Napa river rose to 21.5 feet, almost 9 feet above flood level

Even Reno got flooded.

My brother's friend left for Sierra yesterday morning and had to turn back. Then I-80 closed around Vacaville due to 4ft of water on the freeway.

Sounds like I-80 is open again.

Akio, when is the NCCX ski trip?

Hmmm... I guess I'll work w/ Josh to see if we can put together a day trip to Suger Bowl... I don't know when it'll be though (since I haven't even waxed my skies, yet... )

Cool... you don't need no wax

On a side note, I'm heading up to Northstar with a friend this Friday (yeah...nothing beats a weekday ski trip). Will report how the snow looks.
