Ringwood, Saturday November 20th

[Frank84]

Next clean up and trail day in Ringwood is scheduled for Saturday November 20th.

Starts at 9am (PM for directions) and ends around 5pm usually. I plan to rent a generator (unless someone has one?) and bring a sawzall to work on cutting up some of the big stuff. Plan is to bring out what we can and make a pile for a winter trip this year.

Bring lunch and work gloves.

HI Frank and Everyone,

I will bring a second saw. Can bring the trailer behind the Ford for scrap removal.

Hi Frank. Can you pencil me in for this one??? Unless something really bad pops up (and lately it's been happening quite a lot), I should be able to make this one and I am looking forward to wheeling my Disco. It's been a while.

Let me know if you need any help bleeding them or anything.

[Coniston]

Might be able to get the Classic back out on the trail for this one. I'm getting some 150k maintenance stuff to do on it...but hopefully it's up and running by the end of November.

[Frank84]

I hope all the disfunctional Classics are able to make it. Mine falls into this category as well.

[ini88]

Let me know if you need any help bleeding them or anything.

haha, oh i wish it was a simple bleed to get them to work!

We are talking about old school ABS pumps and brake ECUs that say "Made in West Germany"

Frank, I'm in with my disfunctional green thing + chainsaw.:D

Great!

[grnthng]

Great!

Frank, I might not make this one.... just realized its on a Sat. and I would be working that Fri. night so it will be tough for me to get there on time! I know you also have a limit on vehicles, so I'll back out now!
Bummer, I like this trail.

Hmmm.....I'm not too sure where to find any tires before saturday. You'll be fine with whatever is on there though since the trails are mostly dry. #1 thing is to make sure low range and diff lock work on the DI.

Right now there are up to 7 trucks. Of those, I'd say 3 are definites. As long as there is 1 truck (plus myself) it's on!

Ok will see what happens and yes low and diff lock works , right now I have michelins 4x4 on the truck with maybe 20% threat left on it ,but it is stock height.

Frank I got the GDE running and stopping! But sadly I have off the entire next week for thanksgiving so I was goign to head out early and drive upstate to see them. Next time for sure.

[Coniston]

Think I'm going to have to bail...I got the Rangey up and running again, but I'm not 100% confident in it yet, even to drive on-road only up to Ringwood to do a ride-along. :(

In the spring, hopefully I'll have it fully up-and-running...

[Rob P]

Frank you are gonna be lonely on saturday. I'd come up if I could but I'm working and there is that whole distance thing.

[cris_rrc]

I'll be there Frank and a friend may come as a navigator if he's not working sat.
