Hello Adventure Enthusiasts!

Here's a rough itinerary, a couple of requests, and instructions for those that are planning on coming on this year's ZUKIWORLD FALL CLASSIC! The first thing to do would be to read over the previous adventures and see if you're up to being cold and dirty for three days and to see if this trip would be something that would interest you.

2010 Itinerary:

Friday November 19th:
1300hrs - Meet in Lapine
1400hrs - Begin adventure, Camp in evening.

Saturday November 20th:
Wander easterly through the desert and visit some or all of the following, Hole in the ground, Ft. Rock, Crack in the ground, Christmas Valley Dunes, Lost Forrest, and throw in some abandoned homesteads along the way. Return to camp, have a Night trail ride.

Sunday November 21th:
Play on the way out, Wander westerly through desert seeing some of the attractions along the way.
1500hrs - End in Bend

Requests / Instructions:

1 - Don't wine about the cold. (bring what you need to survive)
2 - Have a 200 mile range with your vehicle.
3 - Bring an arm load of fire wood to help out.
4 - Suzuki mfg vehicle or special guest.
5 - If you bring a dog, make sure it is well behaved or you may be asked to camp far, far away from the group.
6 - To get specific instruction on the meeting place and time (to be included), Send and email to ebewley[at]zukiworld.com. Include a cell phone number and any 'special' needs you may have. I will email you back with instructions on when and where to meet. First 15 gets in.

So how hard core is this run?  Can I run my LJ81 stock, or should I put that rear locker in?

Not that hard core but two things pop into mind. First, it is cold this time of year and the ol' LJ may be a bit frigid. Second, we do quite a few miles and so you would need an iron butt if you are still riding stock. :)

There are a lot of feature article that can be accessed through our home page and the archive section that will describe in great detail what is in store.

I'd personally love to have you attend! It'd be cool to see your LJ riding around. Maybe I'd get inspired and break out my LJ20... maybe. :)

Thanks, Eric

Well the LJ would be warmer than my Samurai!  ;)  (I would be driving the LJ81 down, not one of the air cooled LJ10's, so heat would not be an issue!)  The cold doesn't bother me, as I'll have a nice sleeping bag, blankets, and may tow a camping trailer behind the LJ (if I can get it done in time!)  I'm planning on taking it up to do Whipsaw this summer; I'll find out how hard my butt is then!  I suppose I could just tow it behind the truck, but where's the fun in that?

I did read the articles, and talked to Kieran about last year's run.  I need to rebuild the t-case and repaint the camper shell, as the old paint is peeling off in sheets, but I'd like to have that all done before Whipsaw anyway.

Is that "but smiling" or "butt smelling"? :)
