Hey locktup! Are you going to run the sweeper run with us on Friday? That would be cool, I really want to see that mad red beast on the trail!! Last year was wet but it was alot of fun!

I am really looking forward to this years Rubicon. I am going to be gone for the whole month of July, so this is basically my only time to wheel between now and August.

No.   Marlin, in not so many words told me to take a hike when I went to talk to him at the Hammers. It's all good I still love you guys  :love:. I'm suppose to meet up with some people in the Sluice Box mid morning. I'll see you at the springs.

You should get a pink thong from Muchado to match your soon to be pink truck.

To Marlin, Big Mike and everyone else attending the sweep run for Rubithon, See you There!

We are in full Go mode... 

and Marlin's crew shirts all say  Sweep Run  as opposed to Trail Committee.  Ya, kind of unique.

See you all in the Springs!

FYI, The Marlin Crawler Sweeper run will be running Channel 10.

The Sweeper run is designed to be the last run in, for trash pickup and vehicle recovery/repair. So if you are a registered TLCA Rubithon Participant and you run into any problems, we will be coming through the trail (From Loon to the Springs) on Friday and will be on Channel 10.

Those participating on the Sweeper run must have current TLCA Membership, and be pre-approved by Marlin himself.

:beer:

Regards,
BigMike

I can't wait to get back out there. The Red Dragon's been parked since the Hammers. I also have a new set of front springs I have to bash. I ordered a set of Axle Drive Flanges from Marlin  :turtle: and I have to put them on too. See you at Loon.

yep, im not gonna make it.  got a truck payment due in a couple days, just had to get my computer fixed so that was a bunch more money, prolly can't get off work that weekend anyway.  I will be up there again for july 4th run (the weekend around it)

 I used to have a 92 runner with a V6, ya it was pretty gutless and that was after all the work was done for the recall for the headgasket.
