New to the FJ, and can't wait to see what it's got

I hear ya on gettting people to agree to a date.

Whenever I "arrange" a trip, I'll specify the dates the make sure that I have my trailer and room.  If I can get a firm committment from another rider, then I'll agree to share.  Otherwise, everyone else is on their own.  I do not make reservations for others, neither do I rely on them for support, transportation or anything else.

I encourage others to make arrangements on a 1 or 2 traveller basis and keep it simple.  Trying to arrange transportation, accomodations, and trailers for a group of people is too much of a pain.  The more people in on the planning, the more conflicts.  I don't even want to try to travel together because someone will be late and I hate waiting for someone to get their $hit together at the last minute.

My best ride ever was last October.  Weather was absolutely incredible.  Only myself and a friend went.  No massive planning, we just rode.  It's one of those trips I'll always remember.
