Looks like the NWCC group will be getting into Rifle early afternoon on the 6th. I believe we will have 5 cars heading in from the NW with us. getting closer!

Sorry Robert, just got a message from Dennis Bankowitz that they won't be able to make it

 

We will be leaving Florida on the 29th toward Colorado Springs. We will stop on the way when we feel like it. Arriving in Colorado Springs on the 2nd and then we are free spirits. Let the fun begin.

 

Toby and I will be leaving Very early on the 3rd and should be in Riffle on the 5th for some pre touring.

 

there is no they Inge just me

 

I will be leaving out early Monday morning (6/30)......doing a little touring along the way and will meet up with Gary and Evan late on the 5th for our trip over to Rifle on the 6th. Looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones. See you there.

 

On the road for the 4th. Come on up to indiana. I have a bed for you. The Holliday End. lol.

 

Bill, too bad that I will be way west of you. Maybe one of these days I will make it through that way. But thanks for the offer.

 

Guys I was really looking forward to this trip. I am sorry that I had to cancel my reservations due to health issues. I hope you all have a very blessed and safe trip! Have a good time!!!

 

Tammi and I will be leaving out of Cincinnati on early Friday morning. Our destination for the day will be Salina or Kansas City using I-70. Saturday we will meet up with the people in Englewood. If anyone wants to join along, please feel free.

The DFW contingent will meet 7am Saturday at the Waffle House near Texas Motor Speedway. All are welcome to join.

 

We are also leaving on Friday morning on I-88 to I-80 west.
I wish we could have met up with you both for part of this trip west but it is a little more than a 2 hour increase in our route plans for us to connect with you in Kansas City or 3 hours more for you to connect with us in Lincoln, Nebraska
These would be the 2 closest points to come together overall on the trip.

I'm glad you will be joining us in Englewood on Saturday afternoon/Eve though.
Looking forward to seeing you and Tammi again and we can at least travel the last leg of the journey into Rifle, Co. together on Sunday with the locals

Have a safe trip and we will see you next Saturday sometime

 

What form of communications (if any) is used for these gatherings, CB radio, HAM radio, Cell phone, or other?

 

Gary,


I have thought it over many times about meeting up with you guys in Lincoln. Just a little too far out of the way considering we have a lot of driving to do already. We will meet up with you on Saturday eve. Have a safe trip as well. I am ready to go!

Mostly FRS radios. Each group will pick their own channel.

 

Two way radios
Any like these will be fine

Amazon.com : Motorola 23-Mile Range 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair)

 

Especially when you visit the Dragon you will need FRS. Very limited if any cell coverage.

 

Hate to hear that Dave.. was looking forward to seeing you again. Maybe we'll see you at Laps for Charity..

 

Yes, bring FRS radios. You can pick up a pair for around $40. These will be very VALUABLE during our drives. Most all of us have cell phones, but there may be situations where there will be no signal in the highlands.
