Dirt Diggers aka "The Viewfinders MC Gathering" Food and Info

[Megan Irwin]

Sooooooo......I've been a little MIA lately. What time do the shenanigans start on Saturday?  And, I'm not 100% in, but I'm hoping my schedule will clear so I can at least make one of the days.

The "shenanigans" will start when you get there, Can't miss this "Gathering"   

[Charlie & Darlene Barney - Life Members, 2015 President]

We have all the pit stuff.  There are 2 bike mats for the pits

Mr & Mrs B

[Bob Johnson - D37 Rep]

No, very good points Bob, thanks for the reminder. I think we only have one official spill mat. I can pick up 1 or 2 more when I go buy the Tri-Tips and plates and stuff at Costco. I think we should have 3 anyway.

Several of us won't need pits. I'll throw some throw away carpet in my truck for this weekend! No need to buy any! KJ
ps The Checkers had several riders at an event and just designated two pits next to each other Put a piece of ribbon between them. Use the open pit and move the gas forward from the other as the gas comes off!!!

Many of Us " R " getting to that age where you don't need pit service   

[Donn Nay]

Come when you can if you can Megan. We're planning on meeting about 3:30 on Saturday with dinner later.

The shenanigans will start Friday night I'm sure.

[Brian MacKenzie - VP]

As usual the general "Tom Foolery" will start Friday and the "Shenanigans" have been scheduled for Saturday. Although as you all know, I have been known to mix the two up......and sometimes do both at the same time. Oh well you all knew the job was dangerous when you took it....

[Brian MacKenzie - VP]

Come on Megan, we have not had a real "night out" since RUTS a few years back. We are due in a big way! Flags anyone?

Enough of the "orange bike bashing"  

Just thought I would mention something,  NO WAY do I want to sound negative, but with 20-25 racers, we have to be careful of how much fuel we have "on the ground".
Ridgecrest BLM is much more strict with their enforcement efforts, and I believe the rule is 35 gallons of fuel.
We can have more, but it needs to be away from the fueling area. What I am saying is that you only bring enough for what you need, if you have a 2.5 gal tank you don't need 5 gal of fuel in your jug.
I certainly don't want anyone to run out of gas, but less fuel in your jug means more jugs can be ready for the racers. i.e. 7 cans X 5 gallons or 14 cans X 2.5 gallons.
Also, how many "spill mats" do we have, its very possible more than one rider will need service at the same time.

Since I am not the pit captain this weekend, I hope I am not stepping on CB's toes  

Just thought I would mention this and try to avoid any problems.

I don't wanna step on toes here, or upset anyone. We, (Dirt Diggers) worked out our Permit deal by saying that only TWO Pit Personel at a time, can Pit ONE Racer. So if you have TWO Racers Pitting at the same time, then your allowed FOUR Pit Peeps pitting them.  SIX for THREE, etc... BUT, say your Club has 15 Racers that are gunna pit. That CAN mean that you have 30 Pit Personel in that particular Pit. But only two at a time Pitting a Racer on the mat.
I know its not your 1st rodeo Viewies, but have that Fire Extinguisher where the Pit Nazis can see it.
 Thanks in advance for attending our Scrambles!

No problem Lipskid, we also brought up maybe having two pits next to each other to slit things up.
