And so it is written: Because Curtis lives at his school I usually go sign him out on Thursdays and we go to dinner. So we did that tonight at one of our more common places: A Chinese restaurant a couple blocks north of the state capital on Lincoln (his school is just south of the capital). Anyway, after the meal I opened my fortune cookie and get the usual stuff about "tomorrow you'll have a productive day" or some such. I told Curtis I should have received that yesterday, since I had a productive day today cleaning house, buying food for my campout at Wichita Mountains this weekend, and installing the TF sway bay disco's.

Then Curtis opens his fortune cookie: "A four-wheeled adventure will soon bring you happiness." No kidding. And so it is written!

Mark...no problem...I plan on returning on Sunday afternoon...I'd like to hit a couple trails on Sunday morning...I could definitely get the camping gear back to you.

Thumper...I wouldn't worry about getting stuck with 35's even if you don't get the BB installed...you might have some rubbing though...gives you an excuse for flat fenders...when PJ get's theirs in production next May??? I am getting a set...

I plan on getting flat fenders, right now I just have custom flat stocks...lol...not to pretty but I kinda planned on getting the Xenon flat fenders but who knows I may hold off for others that will be coming out. I still get rubbing but I HAD to cut my stocks up because I was rubbing real bad and atleast now I can get some flex.

I still can't commit, but I might be able to provide some floor space for those who can't fit in tents. It'll probably be a game day decision, but if anything everyone will be able to come over and we'll hang out. Should be good times.

Looking forward to meet you all as well!

Sounds like we should have enough for a party! Perhaps a poker game is in order?

Lol! The hotel rooms should be cheap. I bet if a few of you are getting one they'll give you a break too. Keep that in mind - as its dead this time of year up there. I'm sure the local hotels would LOVE to have you.
