Big Bear run June 19

[king4wd2]

I got one question!! What is the trail rating of this here trail? I was suppose to go to Big Bear this past Saturday, but I was invited to a Wal*Mart picnic like two weeks ago, so I went to Hesperia Lakes. The reason I'm asking is, I know the doctor okayed me to four wheel for another month within reason, but if there were bypasses for rock gardens. I know Marvin would make it now that he is lifted. I just want to be sure before saying Okay, I'll go.

Also, I was told that some women don't four wheel past 5months pregnant and others I talked to said that they four wheeled until they were 7months. Well, I'm between that now, but have a doctors appt Monday am, so I'll double check to see if it's a go or not.

We were also thinking about running another trail after John Bull, maybe White Mountain if anyone is interested.

White Mountain

I've not heard of White Mountain. What else in BB is comparable to it?

Also, can you consider GPS'ing it as part of the off-road survey?

Jeff, Steel Bender was one month ago and you haven't replaced your shifter cable yet? Aren't you tired of having your center console in the passenger seat?

[king4wd2]

Okay, the doctor said it was fine!!!

Black Diamond?? I thought it was easier? Anyways, I'll be there if I can find a co pilot since I'll need someone to undo the sway bars.

Plus, I don't remember where the Vons is up there.

The Missus suggests that the primary risk for pregnant women while four-wheeling (or any other activity outdoors) is dehydration/volume depletion, which is a known cause of premature labor. Drink plenty of fluids, you want to be peeing clear and often.

Vons is on Big Bear Blvd right before the bridge that goes over the lake to the Discovery Center. It's a couple of blocks north of Moonstone.

I would be honored to yank your swaybar, ma'am.

I am going to back out. I forgot that I have an overnight thing for the Girl Scouts at the Maverick Stadium . We have to wake up at 6am to get off the field before the inmates from the local prison gets there to clean the field and I won't be getting much sleep because I didn't last year!! With me being the leader, I'm pretty much needed there. If and maybe a later start time for something else I could go.

Perhaps you can catch up with us at 3N10 John Bull. We should be rolling through there around noonish or later depending on how much fooling around on 3N69 we do.
