Go Topless Day 2014

Go Topless Day 2014 - Group

It’s that time of year again…to take the top off the Jeep and go for a drive! National Go Topless Day always arrives at a funny time for Colorado Jeepers, you never know what kind of weather you’re going to get.

Go Topless Day 2014 - Jeep Wave Topless

This year, we had 5″ of snow / rain the night before, beautiful sunshine in the morning, and some big afternoon storms threatening the day of, not exactly topless driving weather – but we’re quick with the top up / top down routine by now! As usual, we teamed up with the South Park 4×4 Club out of Silverthorne, Colorado and made it out for our annual Go Topless Day event, the highest in elevation event in the world!

Nothing crazy off road to speak of, but we did get muddy and had a good day in the Jeep. Enjoy the pics and share your Go Topless Day stories with us on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+

Go Topless Day 2013 Recap!

Well, needless to say, any day you can get out and wheel it’s a good day.  Go Topless Day 2013 was a blast for us here in Colorado.  We went out with the South Park 4×4 Club to Leadville, CO for the meetup and proceeded to Halfmoon Creek trail to see how far we could go.

After the fun, the snow started moving in, right on cue, and we figured it would be best to head down.  Quite a scene with 10 topless jeeps (and one Toyota) with snow falling softly overhead.  We figured it would be a waste not to stop for lunch quickly, and sure enough mother nature cooperated long enough to bring the sun back out for a quick bite and some Go Topless Day pictures.  AHHHH, Colorado weather!

At any rate, all in all, a fun morning ride and another great Go Topless Day.  Looking forward to doing it again next year and appreciative for a great start to wheeling season here in Colorado.

*** On a side note, we threw up about 10 Jeep Waves to random motorists on our way out to Leadville and had almost a 90% return rate for waves.  Pretty darn good!  It might help having the Jeep Wave Sticker right in view of oncoming drivers! ; )

Go Topless Day 2013

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Go Topless Day is on Saturday May 18th this year and we will once again be joining the South Park 4×4 Club in the highest in elevation event in the world.  We’ll be up 2 miles high in Leadville, Colorado. This pic is from a few years ago in 2011, but as you can see, it’s a good group that gets to see some great views – rain or shine on Go Topless Days.

If you’re in Colorado, feel free to check out the SP4x4 event page on Facebook HERE and join in on the fun.  If you’re not close enough to come out and play, let us know in the comments if you’re doing your own thing this Saturday and be sure to share pics going topless AND Jeep Waving!

National Jeep Wave Day?

We posted a question on our Facebook page, asking our followers if and when they’d like to see a national jeep wave day. Taking inspiration from the National Go Topless Day sponsored by All Things Jeep, we thought this would be another great way to celebrate being Jeepers together. Let us know on the Facebook page or in the comments below when you’d like to see a national jeep wave day!
