sar4x4 Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 *** Update: Date is now set. July 14-16. Further updates to follow closer to summer. *** Hi Folks: I am looking for comments for the 4th Annual M.U.D. dates! 1) I'd like to return to the 3 Day / 2 Night format. (Perhaps 4 Day / 3 Night!). Alternatively we run three single day runs like last year. 2) Dates! - I hate to hold the event on holiday weekends (I like to leave that for family events). - I hate to hold the event on any weekend that other events like Ledwidge/P.O.R.N./Summer Event is being held. - I hate to hold the event on any weekend just before or just after other events like Ledwidge/P.O.R.N./Summer Event is being held. - I like to hold it in July or August. So, the best possibilities suiting the above conditions are: July 7-9, following Canada Day weekend. July 14-16. Two weekends before P.O.R.N. (I think, let me check.) ALL thoughts welcome!

Brunet-Hemi Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 I would much prefer all in one shot as opposed to 3 separate days. I'm OK with either weekend too. I'm super excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQRLPWR Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 ditto! - IMO MUD is better when u have to rough it in-between - feels more adventury I'm good with both dates too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekmac Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 I'm not showing anything in my calendar for either of those date, so both should work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 I am changing my vote from indifferent to 14-16 July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sar4x4 Posted March 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 SOLD! I know the 'poll' wasn't up long, but a number of key members responded, picking what I also think is the better date, so it is now set! Another post will be started with details as we get closer to summer. I'll probably ask Admin to pin it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted March 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I MAY even start on the Thursday, but keep it close to 'Halifax' so others can join up Friday morning. ............... So much to do! So much to see! So much to 'trail'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQRLPWR Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think I'll be mechanically sound for this...will bring ear defenders for any long distances LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted March 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 You or the Zuk is mechanically sound? lol Hopefully both! I will be trying to keep 'uninterrupted long distances' to a minimum, punctuated by interesting breaks along the way..... I just found out about a 'tres interesting', (that's my attempt at French today), place to visit, right next to a VERY popular trail that we use, so popular it was just run on Saturday.......... It could/should be visited on single day runs, not multi-day runs, but,,, my mind is whirling lately with 'Dirt Every Day', 'Ultimate Adventure', etc. ideas.............. I'm going to plot them on a map, and develop a route............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQRLPWR Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 both of us have seen better days ...but we'll be fine LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jawritch Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I'd love to be able to commit to this, but I've already booked 2 weeks vacation this summer. With any luck it will fall on my weekend off anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 OMG I've been so pre-occupied with work, the SAR E2C, and M.U.D. ideas, I forgot about the decal! Yes, Jay, start some magic! I don't have any ideas. Of course when we start the ideas, we'll do it through PM with Tom, etc. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
