I see the date is one day off on the 'event schedule'. I'm assuming mods can fix that. The correct are is 01/24/16 as the subjectline suggests. The event calendar has the 25th which is the wrong date: |
You were looking at 2015... and I failed to put Burninvan under the 2016 list that was way down at the bottom when I last updated it. Apologies for that!
Anywho, calendar has been updated; 2015 event list has now been replaced with 2016. _________________ ~Kamz

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see bURNINGvAN 2016 listed in the "Shows/Events/Camping/Clubs" forum. Should probably be posted both here and there, no? _________________ 1990 Multivan - "Ohana"

No.

bURNINGvAN is on January 24, 2016 at Ocean Beach in San Francisco. Supposed to start around noon but people always show up early. Just look for the group of vans.
What name are you applying for on FB? Have you checked your FB Messenger? If you don't have Vanagon content in the unblocked portion of your profile, you will get a "challenge" sent via Messenger. This is a procedure done to trip up spammers. You can PM me, of you don't wish to publish your name here. _________________ BenT |

Doug, you're in now. My message to you is probably in FB version of a spam bucket, called 'filtered messages'. "Van O Rama" has a 'friend request' from Mrs. V. I'll take care of that later.
Hope to see you both on Sunday! We are expecting rain on Friday & Saturday, but Sunday is supposedly rain free! Dress for cold weather. They are forecasting 46F-55F. If there's any wind, it will be bURNINGvAN weather. Maybe we can have a bonfire again!🔥 _________________ BenT |

Hoping to make it this year - but yesterday spotted drips of DOT4 on the floor under the steering wheel. Attendance depends on which bit's gone south and spares availability... _________________ Jim Crowther

Ordered new reservoir and grommets yesterday, and received them this pm together with a very welcome minty chocolate cookie. Hopefully between showers I can get that sorted tomorrow, and so will see you there, together with a Vespa on a motorcycle rack - a little test to ensure we don't break anything with this teetering-on-the-edge load.
Note to self - investigate coil spring spacers to give a bit of lift to the back... _________________ Jim Crowther

Got our white turd all ready for Sunday's get together. So, unless something happens between now and then, we'll see you then. _________________ '90 Westy / automatic.

Working on my recently acquired Syncro. Damned battery died while I was away on a cruise. I will be loading up stainless steel tanks and ladders from Desert Fox for those who are curious what they look like. There will be other items as well. Look for the white van with the tiny bURNINGvAN sticker on the back window. DF ladder hanging off the back. Tube bumper in rear and GW plate bumper up front. Anybody wanna trade? Or sell a front VC bumper or rear GW bumper? I know. Wishful thinking. _________________ BenT |

Trade for some smoked salmon? No? oh well. I'll be serving a Salmon dip in my rig. Look for a white '90 full camper with a SF giants sticker on the back window. _________________ '90 Westy / automatic.

Here's some pics I took. Around 2pm, I counted 78 rigs. Great turn out.
