Weekdays don't really work for me.

Long Beach at The Shoreline Village might be a possibility. Heaps of parking over there...

Big Bear for 'wheeling is an excellent idea as well.

Big Bear on the 18th is looking good here too. We're celebrating my girlfreind's b-day on the 4th I'm out for that day.

Frank.

I don't know Anthony, I'm just thinking that these should be two different events
since some of our Toys maybe torn down. It would also be a real long drive for
some that want to just meet and eat.

I was also thinking that if we met for grub first, then we could see some rigs and
determine how difficult the run should be. If we meet and eat way before the run,
we could determine a date, time, location at the gathering and then post the
final decision.

Hey Jim, you mentioned T shirts before. Can you get any 4X4Wire shirts? (Free) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

But the 4th would work. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Update: I will be available May 11th. I won't be available the 12th. The weekend of the 4th & 5th is still good for me.

Hope it works out that I can join up with you guys.

How about doing an early dinner Saturday May 4th (Meet @ 3:00 or 4:00)
somewhere in Long Beach? I'm thinking early so we can stand around the
parking lot and B.S. before eating.

Matt (or anyone else), can you think of any simple decent places with good size
parking lots? (I don't think the Nudie Bars count)

As for a run, Frank tossed up the 18th and from what I'm getting in responses,
in Big Bear.
Jim, is this going to be too soon for you?
Mike, this wasn't on your list of dates but what do you think?

Hey, dinner on the 4th somewhere sounds good to me, and at that time we can firm up plans for a wheelin' trip. I should have my stuff done by the 18th of May. Sheesh, I HOPE I do that is!

This past weekend I watched the Rick Russel Big Bear tape. I don't see why we couldn't pick on some of the tougher trails, as they do offer bypasses yet still be a bit of a challange to the built rigs.

Mike (Carter): Were you talking a week day for the dinner, or the actual run?

So what's the word on the resturaunt? The LBZ sounds good to me, or even that place that Toddles suggested in Seal Beeatch. I also know of a great Mexican place in LB that has a good sized parking lot, and it's right on PCH near the traffic circle.

I can do a Big Bear eat-n-run but would not be able to do a Long Beach thing.
