If you are bunking with Steve then ear plugs are also recommended standard gear... And to be fair, also required if bunking with me, for future reference. My family issues seem less dramatic but work is wonderfully over loaded. I can confirm my worst fear of missing this WCR. Feel free to keep me on the "Hopeful" list. I won't reject a last minute opportunity.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

In response to cutterbill, both Ron Oort and me plan to ride to Ouray post WCR. Maybe Mike Ramos will join us since he is listed on both rally threads. Any others thinking about this journey???
Capt. Ron? You are a distance guy.

Guys, don't forget to bring you Go-Pro or similar type cameras. With the assistance of Mr bean we are going to have the ability of setting up a computer & projector to play videos from your memory cards for evening viewing.

Also, if you have any photos of Randy Thompson or Eric Zimmerman, please email them to me.

I am going to try and make a little scroll of them in remembrance as both of them were 2016 WCR attendees.

Six more sleeps to I'm there.

Randy, is there a schedule of events that can be bumped to the last page?

The only hold and fast time set for anything is dinner is served at 7:00pm Friday and Saturday nights.

We will probably have breakfast out and coffee made by 7:00am.

The leave times for riding are dependent on how far you are planning on riding that day. The ride routes are still not fully solidified at this time.

Competitions & Raffle will be Saturday night.

Just a reminder, bedding is not provided.

And finally, this is a BYOB (bring your own booze) event.

Here's a photo from my 86.

Looks like Mike is getting ready for the Show & Shine competition.

Don't forget, we have four contests for this years WCR.

Show & Shine
Most Modified FJ
Long Haul

Two of them will be selected by the attendees of the WCR, the longest ride to the WCR is by the riders home address...

And then there is a friendly individual competition to boot.

We spent a little time this weekend getting the awards buttoned up and I think they came out great.

Man, it is WCR time. :yahoo:

Oh no you don't, I have hunch that beauty will be real shiny when you arrive.

Even if you think you are out, I'm sure your peers will offer otherwise.
