Bring your Toyota to meet other enthusiasts in Las Vegas. If you are interested please post up below and we can figure out a time and place to meet.

I am thinking Big Dogs on Rancho/Craig. Maybe this coming Saturday, November 13, 10 am?

Let me know what you think and post up some pics of your rigs.

I'd be interested in meeting up sometime, I won't be able to get together this Saturday though, I'll be out of town. Normally any Saturday will work for me as long as were done by 12:30 or so. Had to take a class on Saturday this semester. I'm wheeling a 01 Taco on 33's. Marlin Crawler and locked at both ends.

Hey Franky, my wife and I saw you about a month ago at Rainbow and Sunset. I remember telling my wife that was one of the nicest looking Rodeo's I had seen, looked like it actually got used. You waved at us I think, we were in her 96 4 runner.

I'm in for the next one. Just moved here from Albuquerque, and am looking for places nearby to go wheeling.

I'm free most of this (Thanksgiving) weekend. Maybe we can arrange something on Friday?

Alright, the first meet and greet we had myself and one other. I would like to do this again not tomorrow, but the following Sat or Sun.

Any interest?

Sat is out for me unless it's early on the 15th, or later on the 16th.

I know this has been getting kicked around for a while, but has anyone actually met up? I'm still interested in meeting up somewhere. Weeknights are better for me, but I can meet anywhere...

reklund5

Nobody's gotten together since I've been trying to make it happen. I'm free most anytime, out in Henderson- where are you?

Guys, check out meetup.com the group is called Jeep Thrills Las Vegas. We just went wheeling yesterday at Potato Ridge. It was a blast. I am not a member of any clubs yet, but going to check out VV4W.

I didn't get many responses here on Pirate when I first moved to Vegas. Also check jeepforum.com and go to the Southwest board and there is an post for Nevada, it's long so you cant miss it. Most of the same locals float those same sites.

Hey Guys

I'd be game for a meetup at some point - I could do Friday the 11th, or anytime really - work is slow right now so I don't have anything going on for the next few weeks.

I have an 86 4runner, with a diesel engine swapped in. Previous owner has done most of the work - I've been searching away over the last year or so since picking it up, but haven't started building up much yet, cause of time and money. This spring's work season should fix that. In the meantime it would be cool to start meeting some folks in the area, and I'd be happy to help out wrenching if anybody needs a hand (not that I have a ton of experience or anything).

I'm game for meeting up, but won't drive my trail vehicle all the way across town. It's screaming for a ticket or 12.

Should we pick something central, and set a date and time? I'm free Fri/Sat/Sun this week

Ryan

Sure, I'd be game to meet up sometime - I'm supposed to be off climbing some this weekend, so I'm not exactly sure of my schedule - usually we get back around dark or a little after, depending on what kinda adventure we try to get into. Who else is game? And when's good/where's good for others?

Spruce

spruce
02-09-2011, 09:56 PM
But, I gotta warn ya'll - I'm no experienced wheeler of fabricator or anything - one of these days hopefully - been lurking on here for over a year now, just trying to soak stuff up - would be cool to actually meet people and see some of this stuff for real.

I'd love to meet up sometime this week. Weekends are no good, but maybe Tuesday night? I live out in Summerlin, but I can drive where ever.

spruce
02-10-2011, 09:51 PM
Tuesday would probably work for me - I've got called in for late shifts Friday and Saturday, and am going climbing Sunday and Monday - Tuesday or later would work fine.

Spruce

02-10-2011, 09:56 PM
Not that this is dependent on my attendence, but I'll be out of town for work Tuesday.

CMPNS8N
02-11-2011, 06:52 PM
Just found out I have to work Tuesday and Wednesday nights, but I could meet in the afternoon. In fact, I may come out to Blue Diamond for a ride in Cottonwood, so that might work. Let me know, I'm pretty familiar with Blue Diamond, my very good friend lives out there.

spruce
02-11-2011, 07:32 PM
Hmm, reklund5 can't make it Tuesday, and cmpns8n can't make it Tuesday or Wednesday night, so maybe Thursday or next weekend? Since there's only 3 of us currently responding to this thread, I'm sure we can figure out a day that all of us are free.

cmpns8n - as of now I don't work on Tuesday and will most likely be around the Diamond - I'm kind of just winging it, depending on when I get called in for work, and which days I'm climbing - I can try to let you know what I'm up to as it gets closer, or meet up later, or make it work some way or another. Is your friend in Blue Diamond connected to the rigging or climbing world at all? If so, I probably know, or know of him.

Spruce

CMPNS8N
02-12-2011, 07:18 PM
Hey Spruce, my friend in Blue Diamond runs a bike shop here in Summerlin and a tour company. He doesn't climb, but most of the guys who work for him do. Anyway, shoot me a text if you want to try and meet sometime on Tuesday. 702-985-9785.

spruce
02-13-2011, 12:15 AM
Sweet - do you know about when you're going to be rolling through the Diamond on Tuesday? That will be a rest day for me, and maybe tinkering with the Runner, so I should be somewhere around. I'll try to shoot you a text at some point. I think your friend is probably a friend of a friend type thing - I've heard talk amongst the climbers who also bike talk about the owners of the bike shop in town. One of these days I'd like to get a bike again, but I need work to pick up first.

Spruce

CMPNS8N
02-15-2011, 12:22 PM
Yeah, Ill be rolling thru blue diamond on my way to my buddy's house a little later, then on my way back to town. Either way, I'll look for a text. If not this week, then next week for sure. I'll have the runner out in blue diamond at my friend's barn there to do some work on it next week

Alright, been a busy 2011 for most of us it seems. Can we make this happen soon, maybe this weekend. Been really itchy to ride some trails lately and would love to try logandale with some folks that are familiar with the area. I say we do a meet and greet followed by a trail run ASAP! Should cool down a little this weekend as well.

Please let me know and tell your friends!!!

If you like, pm me and I will keep you informed of wheeling trips, I usually hear of 1-2 per week. Hell I will be going out this coming sunday, and maybe next sunday also.
