This is a Day run from Georgetown to the Rubicon. Everyone is welcome and this won't be an extreme run.

Meeting in 830 at EDH Safeway and 930 at Georgetown Market.

We will run up Wentworth and in to Crystal Basin. We'll then check out the Rubicon Entrances and may get to run some of the trail.

Post up if interested.

I'm in unless I run into any issues installing my rock lights that I can't fix by then. Starting wiring them up this afternoon. Drivers side is done. Need to wire the passenger side and the switch in the cabin. Not too difficult but just time consuming getting the wires neat and secured.

Why are you installing a passenger side light? They are kind of useless. You can't see your front passenger tire in the day light, so why would you need to light it up. Just food for thought!

Ya, one light on the driver's side pointed at the back of your front tire is about all you need.
Also, a rock light is never a good excuse for missing a run. mr-green

I used to wheel a lot. . .

I figured in case I needed a spot or needed to get out and see. I only have teeny weeny tires right now. mr-green

I'm trying out a kit from XKGlow that came with 10 small led lights for $40. If it works out, great. If not, it was only $40.

The passenger side light is for the inexperienced person on the right side to panic when they see boulders or drop offs at the last minute!

I have light on the right, but I have 4 on the driver side (mine are also the small LED style).

Same here, I have 4 on the drivers side and 2 on the passenger side front, and one in front pointing in at the diff in case I need to get out and see. I'll be ready for the run.
