Pikes Peak--now why didn't I think of that--DUH. And they say the JOHNSON is the first thing to peter out. That would be neat, but all I have for 4-wheel drive is a set of studded snow tires on the back. However I do get over 22mpg on the open road at 80 mph--so I can travel pretty much to anywhere you guys(gals) want to meet and still have fuel left over to race. I almost forgot Gary, what's your MCI calling # for when I come for lunch sometime to see my wife--get to meet and all that and not be strangers?

The Royal Gorge would be great... I live within 5 miles of the hwy 115/50 junction- on the way to Royal gorge... little town called Penrose... those that have 4x4 can test it on my property if they like (47 acres, some real steep) on the way...
I don't know off-hand if the little ditch is still open, I didn't think it ever closed... Pike's peak doesn't...
Hey, there's another idea... how about pictures of all the trucks at 14,000+ ft?

I would like to make this meeting a trailhead adventure, but I only have 2-wheel drive. If you guys think that this is a bad time,what with work schedules, weather, or the all mighty dollar thing, I would understand--I just bought a new place myself and got remarried the 23rd of December--she doesn't understand the "truck thang".
So far however-We have:
David Thede-Kansas
Brian Foltz-Colo
Pedro Diaz-Colo
Michael Guzinski-Colo
Gary Shook-Colo
Tim Roller(myself)-Colo
That's not a bad start- considering there's thousands of DAKs and RAMs here in Colorado. Hell where I work at the Post Office,there's 3 of us that have DAKs--but their not the kind of guys that would be on the DML-let along want to do anything fun. However if you guys want to continue on with the meet,give me some dates,month(s)and I feel that Limon would be the best,most centralized area considering that David has to come all the way from Goodland Ks. but if Castle Rock is OK then that town would be actually a better place to meet for good food,shopping,off roading and close to Dave's relatives if he wants to stay longer without a big expense--just give the word and I'll check the towns out and see what they have available. Or we can even go South to the Royal George(if its still open). That would be cool--all our trucks lined up at the highest suspension bridge in the U.S.
