Thanks for towing me, Dr. Bronco. Sure was nice to tackle some new (and old) rocks with no worries of driving "Nessie" home. Carb problems solved...next on the agenda - rear traction device. %)

Just a couple from me this weekend-

Hey racebronco I think i recognize that Fat guy in the Bronco. He looked like he was scared
Hey it was really nice to meet you and your wife. After showing my wife some of the pic's. I hope she decides to come to one of these gathering's.

I would also like to give a shout out to the Guys From Bronco-Ohio. I spent most of my day with them. And they were a class-act, and a lot of fun. Broncomarc was a stand up guy. My Bronco did not make the run. And he told me i could ride with him. And i did so all day. I have never did that serious of wheeling. . I also talked is ear off with questions about his rig. I bet he wishes he'd never offered the ride;D
I would also like to say thanks to Hooserdaddy. It's always nice to meet another X Jar head that is in the Bronco's;D . But really thanks for taking the time. and showing me that EFI conversion.
It was a good time. And very nice to be around the Bronco comunity.

RaceBronco - I finally got a video of a jump! Thanks.. Once I get my axles trussed I won't hold back! ;D

Calger - No problem.. You can ride any time.

I had a great time again!
Good seeing everyone and putting faces and names to avatars. I left my camera in my truck and didn't bring recording cartridges for my video camera so that bums me.
Thanks to John (72_EB) and Tom (TheBroncoRanch) for putting it together and HUGE Thanks to the generous sponsors!

 

[got-broncos]

I had a great time. Bronco events are my favorite thing in life. Start with the coolest Off road truck. Install a crazy driver behind every wheel. Great things are going to happen. There is a strong bond between us. We feel this love,and leave with a high that lasts for days. I thank everybody from the sponsors to the smallest riders for the good times. I will post photos later today.

 

[DRBRONCO69]

Here are mine. Enjoy! Some good airborne pics.

Joe, if I would have hit the pic button a fraction of a second later, you would have seen another foot under yours.;D

Had a blast as usual. John and Tom, thanks for the hard work you guys did to put together another sucessful Fool's Run. I also want to thank the sponsors for the great door prizes donated for the raffle! Your support is truly appreciated by all.Everything was a hit!

Hope to see you all on the trails again real soon. - Mike

Absolutely! It keeps getting better every year and my wheels are already turning about next year and how we can improve it even more. Here's a few I've got so far.

1st off- If possible, and no conflicts with Zeeland Swap or Broncorama, let's bump it ahead a week or two. As we all know, a week or two can make a big difference out here in the Midwest.
2nd- Some sort of preregistration with the new owners at the Badlands. If we can fill out the needed waivers for the Badlands prior to getting there, we could flash a FOOLS badge and roll right in at the checkpoint with out waiting in the long 9 am lines with all the mosquito Quad riders...then to a designated section of the lower lot for the Bronco Fools and off the Quarry for a 10 am group shot. But the preregistration would save a lot of time for those losing an hour on the time change and you could simple drop your trailer off at the campsite or Attica Inn and roll! I could send the Fools shirts and stickers out in the mail prior to the event in a pre-registration pack (with the "gate ticket") and save myself a lot of headache handing out shirts Saturday night too.
3rd- Get a locker in the rear of "Nessie" and finally get up that rock challenge.

Thanks again to all that made it a success this year, trail riders, trail leaders, sponsors, friends, and Fools alike. ;D

! We will do it again in 09 Bigger and better!!!!

Got my shirt looks great as always!

 

[crazi429]

I had a great time even though I didn't get to spend much time with the group. Great job on the t shirts. I like Johns ideas since it would make is easier to know whats all going on.

 

[Pops]

That sounds like a great idea. If you need any help with that just fire off a message and i'll be more than happy to help. I'm a little closer to Badlands
than you guys,( any excuse to make a run down there.)

Had a great time can't wait till next year. (No broken u-joints on the way there next year).

[HoosierDaddy]

Badlands only 2 hrs from me , so no problem if you need a hand with stuff. Plus I drive right by ocaasionaly going to my parents place.
John , by bumping ahead , you mean a week or two LATER in the year , correct ? Good idea , maybe we can get more campers next year if the weather agrees. Drinking in a hotel just does not compare to a campfire BS session.

THANKS ! to all the sponsors (or is it sponsores ) and attendees for another great time.
Special thanks to all who helped with the EFI I did this year , she ran incredibly well.

 

[MpCrewcab]

I think the the run should be should be stated as April 1st--- then huh nope April fools its really {insert day}
