FROM SEMA TO THE HUMP N BUMP

VEGAS VALLEY 4WHEELERS GET IT ON AT LOGANDALE

Hump 'n Bump is one of our favorite events, and it happens right after SEMA. in Logandale, NV, about an hour from Vegas. We are here and today did the Bronco Falls trail today with no issues -- Red, the Land Use War Machine is awesome!!!

We have financial help and would like to thank www.ironman4x4.com for this trip, doing our landuse and access thing in our role as Ambassadors for the BlueRibbon Coalition.

TAP TOUR FALL 2012 ANNOUNCED

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Del Albright, del@delalbright.com

TRAIL ACCESS PARTNERSHIP TOUR (TAPT) FALL 2012

Landuse Tour Open to the Public

Join Del & Stacie Albright on a landuse, trail-saving adventure!

Businesses, partners and off-road enthusiasts are invited to join Blue Ribbon Coalition’s Del & Stacie Albright for a fun convoy, dedicated to trail access awareness bringing customers and businesses together in the spirit of landuse. The tour begins with the annual meeting of the North American Motorized Recreation Council (NAMRC), and the SEMA show in Las Vegas, NV; next up is the 32^nd annual Hump n Bump in Logandale, NV, followed by a few days exploring Death Valley, ending with Panamint Valley Days hosted by the Calif. Assoc. of 4Wheel Drive Clubs!

The TAP Tour embodies key components of the BlueRibbon Coalition Mission -- to provide leadership in responsible recreation and empower members to secure, protect and expand recreational access.

You are invited to jump in for all or part of the tour. The Tour motto is: we will NOT be “tapped” out of our trail access! Our goal is to use this Tour to provide a forum for businesses, clubs, individuals and land use professionals to share a connection and exchange strategies for a positive future in off-road recreation, while building support for organized recreation.

Additional adventure stops and area orientations may be included as Tour planning continues. Businesses will be showcased and everyone involved will be supporting landuse just by being there (for all or part).

Support landuse; have fun; hang with off-road businesses and enjoy campfire stories that will be unequalled! Evening sessions will include landuse seminars, membership building motivational speeches, leadership tips, and vendor showcasing with tech tips as appropriate. Several off-road 4x4 clubs will be joining us as we travel along. In between the organized events, the rest of this Tour will be nothing too structured; just fun tagging along with each other and special invites to dinners, meetings, factory tours, trail cleanups and more. All we ask is that you support landuse and responsible trail access to be part of our Tour.

RSVP to Del Albright (del@delalbright.com) or on Facebook even if you only want to keep up with the fun and plans. Facebook page and RSVP can be done here: http://www.facebook.com/events/250626235039729/

TAP Tour (TAPT) Update September 25

AZ and NV Clubs and Friends,

Update on the Del & Stacie Albright Trail Access Partnership Tour (TAPT) to Southern AZ/NV in November.

JOIN US for the fun, the adventure and the landuse!

Our TAP Tour will take us from SEMA to Hump ‘n Bump in Logandale, NV, to Bullhead City and Lake Havasu City, AZ, then to Parker AZ for Desert Splash with the Parker 4Wheelers. PLEASE consider this an open invitation to join us physically or virtually. We’ll be blogging and posting up on Facebook and blogs our entire Tour, website here at http://www.trailaccesstour.com/

Rick Pewe from Petersen’s 4Wheel & Offroad will joining us on the Tour and covering the adventure. We are teasing Rick that this might be the Ultimate Adventure of Landuse. (smile). Denis Snow of Off Road Adventures (ORA) Magazine will also cover the story. ORA as you know is the magazine of 4Wheel Parts. Both these editors/publications are huge supporters of landuse and keeping our outdoor sports alive.

We will have some awesome business partners joining us along the way, and at the organized events: T&T Customs; Nemesis Industries; Trail-Gear; Daystar; Olympic4x4 Products; Raceline Wheels; GenRight Off Road; Dave’s Customs Unlimited; and others…

Our first real stop is to cruise SEMA most all week, the hit Hump ‘n Bump with the Vegas Valley 4Wheelers on Thursday night, to run their organized trails Friday and Saturday.

Sunday we will mosey down to Bullhead City, AZ, to stay a couple nights in the Mojave County Parks Davis Camp RV Park (hopefully space C2). Sunday and Monday nights are “open campfire” time where we can hook up, talk landuse, talk about saving your trails, learning more about AZ issues, whatever comes to mind. We are YOUR BlueRibbon Coalition reps, so bring us the “news” good and bad. Let’s work together to see what BRC can do more for you. We will be doing some local area sight-seeing and area orientation as well.

Tuesday afternoon we’ll pull into Lake Havasu City, AZ (looking for an RV park for the night) and have another “open campfire” where ever we are. Wednesday we’d like to spend time with local clubs and folks who can get away from work to tell us about the area and what BlueRibbon Coalition can do to keep this awesome area open.

Wednesday night we’ll pull into the La Paz County Park in Parker, AZ to prep and get ready for the Desert Splash with the Parker 4Wheelers the rest of the weekend.

At both Hump ‘n Bump and Desert Splash we will have a BRC booth, so please join us at these great events and support the clubs, as well as BRC.

Hump 'N Bump a Huge Success

Once again the Vegas Valley 4Wheelers "got it done right!" The 29th Annual Hump 'N Bump was a tremendous success with over 200 rigs registered and several wonderful wheeling trails on the menu. Stacie and I were able to recruit several new BlueRibbon Coalition members, and we represented BFGoodrich Tires in a tire give-away to support the raffle. BFG kicked in five (5) tires up to 37's for one lucky winner. Awesome.

Hump 'N Bump supports the Southern Nevada Trail Fund which helps support groups like BlueRibbon Coalition and United Four Wheel Drive Associations and others.

Some businesses supporting the cause at the event included Ted Wiens Custom 4x4 from Vegas, Genright Off Road, Go Treks, Superchips, Findlay Toyota, Olympic4x4 Products, Maximum OffRoad.com, OptimumGear.com, Magnum Ink, and others. Tread Lightly (and BLM) were also on sight with a very nice display and friendly folks to help answer questions.

Notably, we found nearly NO trash on the trails and EVERYONE was courteous and smilling the entire event. I did manage to scare my better half (Stacie) with a few tail-walking airborne Jeep episodes, but no damage was done and my Jeep is ready for another adventure.

BFGoodrich Tires Supports Hump 'N Bump Event

In their on-going support of land use and access, BFGoodrich Tires has kicked in a set of five (5) BFG's, winner gets to choose up to 37" tire size, to the annual Vegas Valley 4Wheelers Hump 'N Bump event. AWESOME!!!

The KM2 is my favorite but this lucky winner can choose size and tread design.

Hump 'N Bump is a great event conducted at Logandale OHV area, about an hour outside of Las Vegas. This place as red rocks and sand dunes, with tons of rocky trails mixed in over a large beautiful area. It's a BLAST.

Hump 'N Bump, Vegas Style, Logandale, NV

We are planning to be at this awesome four-wheeling event in November near Las Vegas, NV, and encourage folks to sign up and attend this one. It's a blast, not to mention some beautiful scenery. We're talking red rocks, sand dunes, and wild big horn sheep to boot. It's called the Hump 'N Bump.

What is Hump N Bump?

Hump N Bump is the largest event of the year where you will get to experience terrain like no other. The Vegas Valley 4 Wheelers has been putting on this run for 29 years now and it keeps getting larger and larger with participants from all over the country.

Starting back in 2007, proceeds from the event go to the Southern Nevada Trail Fund who's purpose is to educate and maintain legal motorized access to all points of interest in public lands throughout Southern Nevada. The SNTF is a 100% volunteer organization. So come out and have a great time while helping keep our trails open!
