Colorado Jeeptober 2026

Let's add a permanent tax, meanwhile:

1. Population is declining because we aren't having enough kids leading to lower enrollments
2. The more money put in schools the lower the outcomes we have in education (reading levels, math proficiency, etc)
3. The schools have enough money, but they hire more and more administrative staff (aka they're a jobs program)

But but but. Think of the children!!





But don't think of the children's family
 
Our small little town of 3000 people had decided they needed more money. So they allowed housing to start. Planned an additional 10000 homes. So if the average house has 4 people. You can see we don't have the infrastructure for it. So classrooms are sitting at 50 students per teacher.

And they keeping trying to pass a school funding.

Borrow $50 mil. Pay back $100m. On the tax payers

Smdh. It will pass this year. Whether or not gets the votes. It will pas
 
See if we can keep Mike right side up for a full day

Welp, here we go. Jeeptober has been a great end of season run for a lot of us. I don't want to see this tradition die, so LET'S GET IT ON!

WHEN: Saturday, October 3rd

WHERE: Chinaman Gulch, Buena Vista

Requirements are as follows:
  • 35" tires
  • At least one locker (preferrably two, it makes for a long day for everyone else when they spend time dragging you over obstacles if you don't have them)
  • Skids/armor if you don't like scrapes or dents. Skids/armor even if you do like scrapes and dents
  • Tools
  • Sense of humor
We used to post a second run (mild, but each year it has less interest- usually one, maybe two jeeps) So I'm not going to offer it this year. If others want one, post it up.
