Crawl Magazine is Back!

CRAWL magazine is back and I have a hard copy on my desk today. Depending on how you look at it, it's CRAWL2 (like second generation, or new generation). John Herrick is the publisher and Editor-in-Chief, with Kurt Schneider from Friends of Eldorado (FOE) as the Land Use Editor. AWESOME.



In this first (re) issue, BlueRibbon's membership incentive program is highlighted and the recent addition of Fordyce Trail to the BFGoodrich Tires Outstanding Trails program is showcased. Kurt does an awesome job explaining how hunters got turned out of public lands because of the Travel Management process (unbeknownst to them); and a nice piece about our hero and mentor, Dennis Mayer is featured with a writeup about the Hugs and Jugs Memorial Run (helping the famous Rubicon Trail).

Ian Johnson from TV is the tech editor so watch out for some cool stuff.



Of course there's plenty of hardcore offroad action (comps and tuff trails) in CRAWL, so find a copy, pour a cold one, and enjoy.

They are working on their website, but watch out for http://www.crawl2media.com/

Reno Rocks After Party and Vegas to Reno Race, Sands Regency

Stac and I are recovering from the Reno Rocks After Party last night (smile). It was a blast. The Sands Regency put on the dog for the staff, helpers and Reno4x4.com folks around the pool at the Sands, then we moved into the Third Street Bar. Whew...

Back in June, Reno Rocks 4x4 had some serious W.E. Rock action, not to mention a great vendor show and a few parties.
Put it on your calendar for next year, Father's Day weekend in June, right here at the Sands Regency in Reno.



The Sands has a lot of golf action as well as plenty of casino stuff for everyone. It's also pet friendly which is cool to find when you travel with your little friends.

Today we will hopefully see the finish line of the Vegas to Reno Off Road Race, with another party tonight, and the awards ceremony back at the Sands around the pool Sunday at 10am.

Stacie Albright Speaks About Land Use at Rock Races

Stacie Albright Wins W.E. ROCK Photo Contest

Stacie won a rock crawling photo contest (with me as Runner Up winner). She was on the course with the drivers and all the action of this very hard core rock buggy event. Very cool. No, she didn’t win any money, but she can claim some (more) fame now. Cute.

Check out the pics and see Stacie’s WAY COOL shot of a buggy doing a nose dive.

Poly Performance Tour -- Suspension Parts and More

Stac and I had a chance to tour the operation of Poly Performance in San Luis Obispo and wow, what a deal. Great stuff -- trail tuff and rugged. Nice folks too.

Stacie Albright Featured in Outdoor Magazine

I’m really proud of Stacie. She is the featured star in a piece on “Leading Women in the Outdoors” of Sticks & Stones Outdoor Adventures Magazine (Fall 2008 Issue).

It’s all good and she really shines. I’ve attached a pic to give you a taste of her new fame (no fortune tho). This is a pdf file of the story: http://www.staciealbright.com/Pages/sticks_stacie.html

It’s way cool.
