Star Trails August 2011!!

[Fernweh]

Just remember you do not have a spare tire. And I believe the run flat has limited run time. I know because I have a ML350 Bluetec as well....

I'm all pumped up...my spare as well:sombrero:

Should be a great time on the back roads of the San Juan Mountains, and I'm starting to pack the truck for an early Saturday departure. Meeting up with some G-wagen friends there before the Star Trails event.

See you all in Ouray:smiley_drive:

Weellll.....


sadly I am not out of the trip! I really wish I could go, but it is just not going to work out for me to make it up there. I hope that everyone has fun, and please shoot us some photos!

Regards,

Mercedes-Benz Club of America Star Trails in Ouray, Colorado

I was quite impressed with Tom, a Mercedes-Benz Club official - Trail Master, and his W164 ML500 did the tough Black Bear Pass trail with this vehicle when burqueDOKA and I drove it on the weekend before the Star Trails.

During our drive later that week to the Engineers Pass via the Alpine Loop this ML encountered some problems with the rear air suspension and did not join us on the second Black Bear trail run last Saturday.

Overall this Star Trails event was a great success, very professional planned and presented by the Mercedes-Benz Club of America (Pikes Peak Section).

It did introduce many Mercedes owners (mostly ML's) to the offroad environment, laced with hands-on instructions.

Please join us as a member,

Karl, I am glad to hear that you enjoyed it.

It was very nice to get to meet you, and thanks again for letting me see your Hannibal tent.

Sorry I could not stick around for the entire week of wheeling,

Regards,
Brian
