Well It's almost that time again.  I'm 43 years old this time. I think this will be the 3rd or 4th annual ?
Possible camping this time if We get enough interest. I know Mark wants to so that's one.
Elbe is a no joke trail system so this should make for a sloppy nasty mess of a good time.
As always I will do My best to share the adventures with all of My Marlin Forum friends.
Planning to keep this one from turning into a free for all. Limited invites with requests to only bring one friend.
I will post up some videos from our previous Elbe runs. I hope You can make it  :wave:

SqWADoosh [04:19 PM]: *sigh* I guess Chris is right and I just need to wait until I'm in a place where I have a tow rig and trailer before I get this caliber of truck
Mudder [08:28 PM]:   not try to be a jerk, but are you serious bestgen?
Prismo [06:11 PM]:   Done, time to relax or as Bestgen says....FREEDOM!
HogCanyonHopper [06:54 PM]:   I like my little rod. it gets the job done
H8PVMNT [03:30 PM]: I can go both ways.

Canceling trip to Elbe next weekend. Wife got a new Job. Her hours are opposite of mine, so last opportunity to spend time with her before she starts. Sorry

Reschedule? I should be able to go after March 14th.
Engine comes out after the 23rd for Carson's truck. Then it's out of commission until engine swap is completed. (going to be a while) :down:

What?  I was prepared to not show up, but for it to not even be an option just hurts 🤣
