So let's start making things official on my "birthday" run.

Here's what I've got so far:
  • Friday, April 4th: 21 Road - Grand Junction
  • Saturday, April 5th: Scratch & Dent - Montrose

I'd like to meet for both trail runs at 9AM.

Meeting spots:
  • 21 Road: Corner of Hwy6/50 west and 21Rd Google Map
  • Scratch & Dent: City Market in Delta** Google Map
**Note: I figured we would meet in Delta since most everyone will be coming from the north. If you're coming from the south, you could wait for us at the turn off of Hwy50 for Jay Jay Road heading west.

Trail Descriptions:
  • 21 Road: TrailDamage.com
  • Scratch & Dent: none available. It should be at least as hard as 21Rd I'm guessing. It is the "easiest" of the Montrose trails.

Anyone is welcome, but please keep in mind the level of difficulty. There are always seats available for anyone that wants to ride along.

I know some of the guys are camping and some are staying in hotels. You all can discuss those options because I don't have much information on them.



21 Road from '06:

Nice! I love primered trucks. Looks agressive like that... almost like the back alley thug.

So I can stick the family stickers on personally once I get them done? I actually think the fuel would be cheaper than the trail.

yeah now your thinkin. It probably would be cheaper to drive but i figured if i took a train theres no chance of vehicle breakdown on the way. See i have this road trip curse everytime i take a road trip something happens even if its really small. Yesterday me and my GF brother in law drove 100 miles to go walleye fishing and an hour into the trip our kicker motor decided it want going to stay in gear anymore.
