Roadrunner!😪

[NicPaus]

I also read the Sundance is going to try and open since they cant sell it? I read it on one of the Parker FB sites.

Creditability? No clue.

Someone posted that. But it was Outlaws of Sundance on CA side that posted looking for employees for summer.

As I recall it was a fire works deal they tried to hang him on. It all worked out in the end.

Same deal at Echo. Jim's neighbor guest lit off a firework. Same week a water balloon got thrown.

Few others got the boot for fireworks. I know them all. They had posted on every ones door. Fireworks will get you thrown out.

Fireworks and Booze just go together. It's one of the finer things in life.

People don't realize how combustible the desert really is, especially old mobile homes.

What about the docks near the launch ramp at Pirates in that back bay? Will she exit the boat on those?

Nope but she did get out at the gas dock in there but it took some convincing. The older we get the bigger the issue. She just panics. I don't get it, its a newer thing as she's been boating with me allot over the years. The ocean boat is fine if she can climb over the rail but she wont touch that swim step.

I'm just rolling with it.

$6,667,000 for everything RV Park and bar.

Can I level it, and build stack storage?

We seen the hill across from echo get lit off by a wayward firework. Another big dumb thing people do is light the lantern deals that fly across the park and land on some ones trailer.

[Havasu Rehab]

Am I missing the swim up bar somewhere?

Something is better than nothing

 

[coolchange]

It won’t be the same walking out on the floating dock bar if I don’t feel that my life is at risk just a little bit just by being on the dock.

 

[EarpRider]

No more Roadrapers, the new owners are changing the drinks name to Consensual Encounters!

Saves trips to the bathroom

Looks good, im not a fan of the pool deal, but thats just me. it looks like i wont be able to run my pontoon onto the beach and tie off to the palm tree like a always have.
which bums me out.

 

[grumpy88]

Makes me happy to see it coming along so fast . I hope the food is just as good as it used to be .

I went by there yesterday and I said the same thing, very little beach parking now.

It’s the amount of chemicals used to offset all those people.

and thats my bitch about foxes. if you cant get on the dock, just keep on going, no where to pull up.

I went by again today, pulling up on the beach is gonna suck, unless you're on a Stand-Up.

Go early before they open, park, and stare at them til they give you a drink, haha. Usually up at o'dark 30 anyway skiing.

Try Fox's! Went by there on the weekend, some of their newest boat dock has broken away and gone missing, and they have yellow crime tape on the rest of that side.

The way they laid out the pool and the seating area I’d wager they care more about the guests staying in the new Mobil’s than they do about guests pulling up on boats.

I read somewhere it’s going to be a “Bahama/island” theme and more upscale. I don’t think it’ll have the same vibe as when it was roadrunner… we will see I guess

Agree, won't tolerate the riff raff that made the place fun!!!!

Yup, that's their plan, but those $500,000 + Bahama Style home owners won't be there much ( or at all) Nov. - May, gotta have a bigger plan.

 

[HubbaHubbaLife]

WOW.... impressive. I get the comments about beaching rides but otherwise you guys gotta like the redo. Fancy pants. Can't get many boats in that dock though eh... Ive never gone other than by water so I reckon they are planning on some guest coming by auto. [ample parking lot or reliable Uber?] In these bars its all about volume and churn to turn profits... you locals know the deal better than me.... did most beach their boats to right previously during heavier hours? As a seldom user I'd say that pool and jacuzzi is a great draw but thats directed to folks staying awhile.. Not to mention the "deeper" docking space so none of you jello shot guys flying up into the bar any longer... gives a bit more space for landing.

Parkers gone fancy now baby.... its official. As a closeted Fancy Pants I approve!

 

[HBCraig]

So no more bar at Roadrunner?

I guess Foxes is the only place nowadays

 

[Icky]

When road runner was full, we would just park next door at lapaz

 

[grumpy88]

The pool will be over run with unattended kids . I hope they have a plan for a life guard / baby sitter .

Lol haven’t been since October, kinda jonesing.

 

[poncho]

I'm concerned about not being able to beach with all their planned beach cabanas and such. My wife will not step from the boat to any dock except the docks at Rockhouse. Terrified, absolutely terrified to exit on the actual river. Makes my life a bit difficult. That Hippity Hop gap is a huge nope to her, then add boat wakes and holy shit, end of the world.

Interesting,
My Wife has become the same way. One morning on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire we met a group of boaters for breakfast and the dock was a good climb up from the side of the boat and she absolutely refused to get off. That was the first time and it got progressively worse.?
She said she doesn't trust her balance anymore.

Yes they are building a bar on the new dock, just haven't started it yet.

 

[OCMerrill]

It's just like the river. Magically nobody has the use the bathroom.

Were Emerald People and go there all winter long avg. once a month. I have never touched a pool in there.

This is what we also do and never had a problem.

 

[retaocleg]

never get in a bar pool, that is a rule.......but the channel

I got a reply from the new owner stating the new floating bar would be open by next Spring. I'm not sure if Vin mentioned that before but thought I would pass along the info.

That's been discussed and taken care of.

Not until Spring? They really don't like making money, seems like the bar would have been more of a priority.

I'd let them baby-sit me anyday.

How long after Roadrunner opens before someone jumps off the deck into the pool?

 

[ChrisV]

We were asked to kindly leave when my buddy cannon balled off the stage of Topock into the pool lol.

Best part is they wanted to kick us out before the bill was paid

Dine and dash done right.

Lol I asked the security guard (while being told to stand up right now) if he’d like me to pay for our food and drinks. He dragged our friend to the boat and my brother followed. Took 5-10 mins to get the check.

Waitress thought it was funny as hell

15min to get a check in Topock is light speed!
