Bronco 50 year Super Celebration April 12 - 16, 2016

[Rox Crusher]

Ok, at the moment we have 7 CCB members attending the Bronco Driver Super Celebration - myself, Phil, Mike, Keith, Keith's wife, Garry, and Jesse.

The Saturday morning convoy will include 5 rigs - myself, Phil, Mike, Keith, and Keith's wife. Garry will be riding shotgun with us. (I may be riding shotgun too if I don't get my rig finished in time). Jesse will meet us in Townsend on Tuesday.

I70 is the fastest route, about 1200 miles / 20 hours and takes us through Kansas City, St Louis, Nashville, and Knoxville.

We plan to leave early on Saturday morning and try to stay somewhere between Kansas City and St. Louis (Columbia, MO?) that night.

Sunday we can put it in 4 low and drive up and over the St. Louis Arch and stop in Nashville to launch Mike's musical career.

You can follow our progress if your bored stiff. http://glympse.com/0FX5-9NWZ?utm_source ... ign=invite

The original plan was to head home the following Sunday but I now have to be in California Monday evening for work so what an awesome excuse to stay Sunday for the Nascar race in Bristol, TN ? After the race I plan to drive to Memphis and catch a flight to CA. Phil is going to Denver, NC to show Nick first hand what "Viper Built" looks like. Wednesday I will meet up with Phil in Memphis to finish the drive home.

Not sure what everyone else plans to do for return portion of trip.

I am really excited this is all coming together and wish more people were able to come along.

Next year, I will be living on your route, so perhaps I can either offer any assistance, or perhaps join in on the convoy!!

Given the weather the south has been seeing, I feel like I should throw in work gloves, chain saw, generator, etc.

So, Mike, Keith, Jesse...What are your plans for the return portion?
I have to be back to work Tuesday morning and am hoping to hitch a ride back by then. If not, flights aren't too bad right now but I don't want to wait much longer to book if needed.

[plumbdoctor]

I have to be at work Tuesday as well, so we will be heading back west Sunday morning if not sat night

Do you have an empty seat if needed?

[EFI Guy]

Also, I plan on packing a couple of spare computers along, just in case. Everyone is running 98 computers except for Jeff right?

I need to be back at work Tuesday as well. Heading home Sunday morning, stopping at my in-laws in KC Sunday night. There's an open seat if you need it.

just 2 pics? And why does mike have his truck and trailer there? Did Jeff get his bronco done?

[landshark]

Most importantly. Did you get free coffee?

[Rox Crusher]

Did Jeff get his bronco done?

Nope, despite the valiant efforts of many it didn't.

Many folks tried to help but my ambitions proved too great for even the best. Thanks to all that lent a hand including Tim, Garry, Chris, Mike, and Phil.

I stayed behind to keep working on it and take care of some other stuff.

Wow, That sucks ass! Are you going to try to catch up or just skipping it all together?

I'll tell you it was a bear driving both truck and bronco too!

[EFI Guy]

650 miles to go.

Still in MO? Looks like the sign for Boonville.

[Jesus_man]

What reactions are you getting on the highway? What a cool convoy!

[hockeydad4-22]

Have fun guys, be safe and keep sending pictures
