After checking our spring schedule I will definitely be there in May, also today I went down to the motorcycle shop and put down a deposit on an 2004, WR-250F. So I will have a new ride to break in. I’m hoping this bike will handle a little better than the 426 did in that tight Paragon single track.

Nathan,
That is awfully nice of you to buy a new 250F so we can all take it for a test ride :joke: And I hope you don't plan on coming alone....will the wife be with you?

She says she wants to come, I also have a couple of other guys that live near me that I took up to Paragon last year that had a blast (even through one of them hit a tree harder than DaveRS does).

Like the title of the post says, the DTDR chapter of DRN will host its Spring ride on May 1st and 2nd at Paragon (www.paragonap.com).

Paragon has a trail system that something for everyone. It is THOUSDANDS of acres. We will also be camping Saturday night.

LOL.. Now I have to come! :)

What are you gonna do with that 426? Are you considering selling it?

I am, but I think they may still be a bit out of reach for me $$ wise though.. :ugg:

If I do, you I'd guarantee you'll get some good footage if you take me into the singletrack with it! LOL

This :eek: will most likely be the look on my face as I fly through the air toward the largest rock or tree in my vicinity while you take photos!

LOL Seriously though, I might be a little more stable on a 4 stroke with a bit more weight under me me bing 220Lbs. I'd certainly like to try one out and see how it feels. I'm not 100% certain the KDX is exactly right for me, but plan on running it alot more this season. Along with the quad...

Sorry Dave but I already got rid of it. If you had said something last year I would have let you ride it. But you can still try my new bike (no starting drill on this one).

No problem Nathan, like I said, it's probably still a bit out of range for me.

I'd love to try the WR250, but at 39.5" seat height, it's almost 10" higher than my inseam! I don't know if my feet will even touch the ground! LOL

That certainly carries the potential for some interesting footage!

Nancy - Better ask your doctor to up the dosage of your meds or you'll crack long before May. BTW, have you told your wife that you're going riding that weekend yet?

Things are still iffy on my front. Mrs. Woods has a class on Saturday the 1st so I'll be home watching the kids. So I won't be rolling in until Saturday night. Just have a few adult beverages on ice for me.

(11/24/03) Okay, let's get down to business and start planning some 2004 events.
Cross off May 15-16 and July 25th off the schedule
(12/1/03)BTW - May 8th and 9th is not good since May 9th is Mother's Day. May 1st and 2nd would be a better choice
(2/3/04)Things are still iffy on my front. Mrs. Woods has a class on Saturday the 1st so I'll be home watching the kids. So I won't be rolling in until Saturday night
(?/??/04) To be continued

I hope May gets here soon before Nancy finds another reason

Hey guys,
I have been off the forum for a bit. Trying not to drive my self crazy waiting for the warmer weather.
I will be heading out there for this event. I think Kevin and Eugeen will come along also. I think we will have to get Bill to come along also and try to get him to NOT sink the bike this time.
