Adventure Van Meetup-Sat. Sept 8-Golden, CO

Calling all front range van heads!
Short notice as it’s happening tomorrow am. I have no affiliation with the meetup, but I’m planning on checking it out. Not to be confused with the larger Adventure Van Expo happening out in Tahoe, but it looks like these guys that own the ski shop Powder7 down in Golden put it on in their parking lot. It looks like they have a Sprinter built out of their own. I know Matt that was with CCV will be there showcasing some of their builds from his new company http://www.avcrig.com
Looking forward to checking out the latest and greatest from them and others before Matt and I sit down to hash out the details of our own interior rebuild. (thread to come)
https://www.visitgolden.com/event/2n...meet-up/10949/
I’ll follow up with some photos from the event......

Adventure Van Meetup-Sat. Sept 8-Golden, CO

It was a decent turnout at the meet up, about a dozen vans, mostly Sprinters, a few transits and then my old dinosaur....not as old as the westfalia.

There were a few builds from Tourig based in Golden and one from avcrig, Bill (yelnam) brought his 4X4 Transit with CCV top and SMB buildout to show off too, I didn’t really get a lot of good photos, too busy talking shop
She sure does clean up good, even hiding behind the bush!
