Hoping the Alien will be back out on the road by then. She has really been fighting her last implant.

The tenth is our 50th wedding anniversary. I really like this event, so I am sort of signed up…if my wife is willing. She has signed up for WCR, so maybe.

Wow! Seven thousand feet for base camp. Glad the 3.2 has the aneroid piece that comes with the ECU. Hope it works. I guess it has been to the north rim, so it oughta. Thanks for setting this up.

So I was thinking of taking a break this year and doing some other stuff...

but then you had to go an plan it in Salida


As a teenager I spent every summer in Buena Vista at a summer camp.

My dad would drive me out every year from So Cal across 40 and then up 285. This is after the one year we attempted 550 in a carb'd airstream bus, cuz you only do that once. I used to pass the time dreaming I was making the drive in a 914.

On occasion the camp would take us to the hot springs in Salida.

Since its been on my list to go back after 25+ years, and as I have never been there in a 914...

But you didn't have to cross, Kansas, or Oklahoma, or Texas. Its like 20 hours one way. However my friend lives in Salida and he drove the red 75 (that I drove at the Rocket City Ramble) out there a couple of years ago.

No one is every truly ready for their first RRC...


That said the crew has really mellowed out a lot in their old age and there has been a noticeable lack of shenanigans in recent years poke.gif

I drove that road (in the other direction) in my truck a few weeks ago. I am very happy I chose the other route during RRC.
