Review from OFF-ROADEO Moab Bronco Sport 1st Class 5/6/22

[Cactusjk]

Hey @BrianOntheTrail, when I originally signed up for the Sunday May 29 class, the start time was listed as 1:00 PM. The email I got last week states the start time as 11:00 AM. Can you clarify for us?

The Saturday event definitely starts at 11:00.

Thanks Bruce for the Detailed intro write-up on this thread!

Here are a few more shots from the first Sport Off-Roadeo in Moab, including our Group shot at the Overlook. The last picture is of a Full sized Bronco on display next to "Basecamp."

I was fairly amazed how well the "street" tires handled sand and slippery rock steps.

Can’t wait to go this Saturday!

Man! I'm still need to post my trail video. Nice pics. It was an awesome day. What Bronco # did you have?
If i can get some of our group..i can label their Broncos like a race / ralley broadcast.... That would cool.

Hey! The start time this Sunday is 11:00 am. It is this Sunday only, typically it will start at 1.

That was an incredible road! Did it last Saturday. Do you have the Gaia coordinates? Mandy was our guide.

S'Up Cactus Jeff
I am glad to hear you had Mandy for the trail run. Be nice to hear from her in this thread. I do not have the coordinates but I did do a search of "Owl Draw Road" in the app and it comes up. On google maps you can do the same thing- also look for "Lost & Found Parking Lot" .

I was there the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend and while I didn't write anything down at the time, using the clues given I've come up with this. Drop the coordinates into Google Maps, hit satellite view and Bingo.

What I love about the spot is that unless you park and take a short walk you'd never know it was there. I really wonder how many people have gotten to the end of the trail and simply turned around and started heading out.

Motorola 2-Way Radios, standard work site ones. Pricey.
You can get "family" radios- they work just fine.
However, check these ones out.

Nice. I have my license and have some Yaesu HTs.

This seems to be one of the more popular GMRS radios right now. Definitely way more money than Baofeng, but people seem to love it because it transmits on the 15 high powered GMRS simplex channels, 8 low powered simplex channels and all 8 GMRS repeater channels at up to 5.5 watts of power, with no special programming needed. It just works straight out of the box.
