Is it me, or is the communication for this event seriously lacking?

We’re now less than a month away and I have not seen any communication via email or Facebook about what’s going on. I bookmarked this thread a few months back and this has been the most active discussion I’ve seen, but even then it’s not much.

I’m about ready to cut my losses and just bail on the event since it’s been crickets.

What do you want to know? The dates are up, the trails have been published, tickets are available, we've told you that grand county isn't letting us do any kind of gatherings so the dinner and usual stuff isn't happening, we've said that we have to pay someone to be on staff with rapid covid tests.

None of that has changed. It's going to be a wierd year, yes. Absolutely. But we're getting together and wheeling. Thays what's important.

What do you need to know? What kind of communication do you want?

We are doing the best we can.

What about Sunday registration if we have to pick up any stuff?
Trail meeting time and place for each day?

These are definitely two very big questions that there hasn’t been any communication over. This is definitely one of my points - I don’t mean to sound like I’m criticizing anyone, because I’m not intending to. However, it’s like f1ip said, where are the meeting places for trails and times? How do we pick up our registration stuff? Is there even registration info to pick up? None of that info has been communicated, so it’s kind of like sitting in the dark.

You're going to pick up registration stuff from our condo. It's on the south side of town. Address coming soon. We will be doing timed pickup since we can't do crowds. That that will launch next weekend with a new eventbrite link for everyone to get thier time slot. It will start around noon on Saturday and run through Sunday. You'll sign up for a time to get your stuff and do tech inspection. One truck at time.

As far as meeting locations for the trails, I'll find that out and get it posted on Facebook and here.

Fantastic, that’s great to hear!

Again, I didn’t mean any of my comments as criticism. I just wanted to bring up the concern of not really knowing what was happening considering the event is only ~3 weeks out now.

I get it. I'm not on Facebook so I don't see what's happening there. My partner in crime is running the Facebook side of things. As much as it makes me cringe, I might have to go near that pile of radioactive waste for next year.

Ah Sh... I had no idea I needed to be there early on Sunday. I have 9 to 12 hr of driving that day to get to Moab. I also had no idea there was a tech inspection. My lodging is non-changeable, non- refundable.

And I also don’t touch Facebook. So please post here.

Hello Everyone. Looking forward to this year's event. First time attendee. Prime, I'll have to connect with you as well. I wont be in Moab until late Monday night. May have to coordinate an early Tuesday morning ticket pickup and inspection if possible. Look forward to next steps.

I'll be launching the check in time tickets this weekend. If you know when you're going to be in, send me an email (jay@gonemoab.com) and I'll create a special ticket for you and we will coordinate from there.

Well get you taken care of.

Prime, do you mind listing how many people we have per trail. I would rather be with a larger group of Nissan's on a easier trail then just two on a harder trail.

I'm curious to hear how chewed up the trails are..... Particularly the last right hand shiat show on Hell's

@Brunnie you were right about I70. Entire interstate was shut down after Glenwood Springs fo a few hours. Stopped there to have dinner. ufcked up my plans for the drive. So I stopped overnight in a different spot. Taking it slow. I'm in no rush for anything this weekend. I'll be in Moab @ 9am tomorrow.

@Prime Did you run Steel Bender?

And what the ufck are doing with the front sway bar still on?

5 years ago we gave @dixie1865 so much shiat on Metal masher for that, that he and I took it off during our lunch break. lol

I just went down the entrance to the field at the bottom.

And while my swaybar is technically still there, it's only connected on one side. I plan on fully removing it when I drop all the armor to put the new front diff in.
