Re: The bdrunner goes to Moab 2008

We arrived yesterday a little afternoon after 20-1/2 hours of total driving on the way from Washington State.  The bdrunner did ok but I would have liked going a little faster along the way.  I was only able to cruise around 75 mph for a little bit of the trip, the rest was 65-70 mph due to wind, road conditions and 4cyl engine with 35's and 4.88 gears.  The altitude makes it a dog around town.

Yesterday afternoon we hiked to Delicate Arch to get some excercise.   :eye:

Today we're running Steel Bender.  I don't expect a difficult trail, but it's a great warm up and also a new trail for me.  :driving:

Hopefully we'll have some pictures tonight.
