About 3 years ago, we attached a green ribbon to the
antenna of our car, so we could identify other members
when we were out and about in the fall season.

I suggest that we do something similar this fall.

Thanks for bringing this up Art. I'll have to figure something out, as my antenna snapped off a couple years ago! DOH! :eek:

Doerzman you don't need to bother your not allowed in the mountains.

Look for my green ribbon, too. Although my trips will consist of short 2 or 3 day shots at the weekends.

I don't have an antenna but I suppose I'll figure something out!

Likewise, I don't have an external antenna, embedded in window. So I will attach it to my Yakima rack.

Will this work? :biggrin:

Well, we don't need to worry about spotting Phillip! Then again, he'll most likely be in a ditch since he won't be able to see very well! :biggrin: :jump:

That shot is priceless Phillip!!!

LOL, Phillip!
I will be tying a green ribbon to my antenna as soon as I get back to the store. This is a great idea. But what about when we are outside of our cars? Should we tie another one to our packs? :wink:

I'll tie a green ribbon around my motorcycle handlebars and the antenna of my Yota.

Everytime I look at Phillips ribbon it cracks me up! Count me In. I'm planning on 5 days the first week of October. Maroon bells, Marble, Kebler, SilverJack, Ridgeway.

I'm in with the ribbon. :cool:

Maybe we should get another RMNP sticker up on the store. The current one is cool, but its kinda hard to see at a distance because it doesn't have enough contrast. Any volunteers for working up a new RMNP sticker?

Edit:This would work, too. :smile:

Good idea, I'll be in the Aspen and CB areas the last week of Sept.

I'll play-the ScoobyDoo's ready to roll! (my nickname for the Subaru Forrester)
Posted by bill meikle on August 31, 2009 at 9:15 AM
Maybe I will just have to buy a green car!

I am just imagining every car around CB with a green ribbon for a week or two!

Don't forget to wear a bright green shirt or jacket as well when you are up on the rocks around Bear Lake as well.

I'm down.

I'll be a weekend worrior as well but I think I can find something green to attach to areas of my truck that won't obscure my view. If off trail I'll most likely be attached to a black and white, uber-hyper Border Collie named Aidan :biggrin:

I can do the green ribbon, or maybe some green racing strips!
