Hiya, guys, newbie here!

Post by Coby »

Signed up to the club but I'm not sure I can make it to the breakfast this weekend; it's about a hundred miles from me up here in north Fort Collins. Is there a regular membership meeting? And how to I officially 'join'.....thought I sent an email but I might not have; I do have mad cow disease.

Name's Coby Hughey; looking forward to meeting all of ya'll. I'm a bit of a photographer and I'm game for shootin' some rigs too, if you're interested, and I've talked with a few of ya'll about doing a repeat of the Red Rocks shoot that I did years back.

Here's a pic of my old bronco if yer interested:

Hi There Coby. To say your 'bit of a photographer' is like saying Mayweather is a 'bit of a fighter'. Really happy you joined the Club. Want to schedule a couple get togethers with the B.R.O.N.CO guys. I know we have talked about a group photo on CB.com. Hope to meet you in person soon.

To become a CCB Member, PM any Admin/Mod your info and get ya set-up. The Club has a rotating Breakfast meeting the 3rd Saturday of each month. We will definitely be coming up to Ft. Collins for a Club Breakfast very soon.

We are puting together a Bronco Calendar and would love to have you submit some of your Bronco pics.

Great looking Bronco. Welcome to the Club!

Thanks, man! I'm an ok photog; there's a hellova lot better out there, but I do love to shoot and I do it for free, if ya'll want to do some features of various rigs and/or mods. I shoot wives 'n girlfriends too, and I'll shoot yer wife AND yer girlfriend together if ya let me. (grin). Nothing ready to submit to a Bronco calender currently but I'll have a bunch for next year, that's for sure. Who's volunteering to roll their rig for some action shots? Gotta be someone like ole Terrorist Tony in this new club, right?

I'm sure we'll end up on the same trails eventually. Ya'll do a monthly run?

The Club had done a Trail Run a couple times per month. We are always looking for ideas for fun trails.

Yanno, I've tried that...it's hell on the camera tryin' to snap pics whilst in the midst of doin' 3 ton pirouettes, not to mention the fact that I'm old and my middle ear ain't quite what it used to be. I'll roll a few times to help someone figger out how to do it though; that's fun!

Hey, is there a calander of club events like runs that I'm not seeing? We can get a liason goin' with BRONCO for some runs to give folks options. They did a run up Seven Mile last Sunday; I didn't get my crap together in time to make it for the run. I've got a few issues to sort out before I'm ready to break stuff.

We are going to get ideas for 2011 and put together a formal calendar. The club has Mall Crawlers to Complete Custom Rock Crawlers so the events we plan are from Car Shows to Moab. 2011 is going to be awesome!

I'll ring his ear. He lives about a mile from me, or visa-versa as it were.

Do you still have your bronco. I remember you selling it or atleast having it up for sale long ago. I have always drooled over it.

I sold it back in 03....and just bought it back recently. It's sporting a few upgrades from when I sold it. I've been missing it most of that time.
