last call for Turkey Point

FLYIN_KAW · Jul 6, 2002

Hey guys more info on the camping at Turkey Point.
I was a bit concerned about getting sites close together at the campground. I just got off the phone with the campground and apparently we can have up to 6 people 3 tents and 3 cars per site for 21.50 + 8.50 /vehicle. So the guys bringing a group they can get on one site and split the cost. Anyway we have to book the sites so they don't get filled. We need 100% for camping now, who is showing and I'll see about reserving a few spots ok. So who is comming for sure now.

Looks like at least me for Saturday. Maybe the wife but she says I don't know anyone :whiner: I tell her they are no wierder than me :scream: I guess I should have chosen my words more carefully :moon:

LoriKTM · Jul 8, 2002

Dave and I are planning on being there, both days!

Papakeith · Jul 8, 2002

Paula and I are in for Friday - Sunday
If I can talk my nephew and his crew into going it'll be two sites for us.
I speak with him and post the results.

Dapper · Jul 8, 2002

Will you post directions or where to get directions when we are a little closer to the date and confirm that we have the campsites? If we aren't there until Saturday what time does everyone expect to ride? If it's an hour from Buffalo should be there before noon.

FLYIN_KAW · Jul 8, 2002

no probs, From Buffalo, take #3 to Simcoe, south #24, south on #10 to campground. It will be on your left hand side. East side of road. Big sign can't miss it.
If you get to the lake you've gone to far. :) :) :)

MRRMX · Jul 11, 2002

Your correct on the route. If I recall it right its 81 miles from the Peace Bridge to the Point. One Question for all you Canadians...Whats the flashing green light mean on the red lights? Your setting at a red light the light turns green and the green light flashes on and off....Whats with this?

Flyin_Kaw,
Did you get a final count for camping? The wife is coming so it's 2 for the Dappers. Are you planning on riding before noon on Sat. If so i'll plan on leaving home about 6am that will get us there around 9:30 - 10 with some fudge factor for getting lost. I really am looking forward to this. Missed the last Paragon, Not!! going to miss this one. :aj:

You wont get lost. If your crossing the Peace Bridge in Buffalo. When you clear customs you will take the exit that is about say 2000 feet straight head the off ramp will end at a road. Turn to the right on to the road (overpass) and head down the road say a mile or so and it will intersect with Kings Highway 3. In Dunnsville, On if you see signs for a route 3 ignore them You want Kings Highway 3 all the what to Simcoe ,On. When your in Simcoe Id call it the business section, Highway 24 intersect Kings highway 3. Turn left on to Highway 24 and its a good ride down 24 until you see the Turkey Point mileage sign. Just follow the signs to Turkey Point.

OK, I reserved site 165 at the Whiporwill campground at Turkey Point. You guys -n- Gals better reserve sites soon. It's getting kinda crowded up there! :)

Dapper · Jul 12, 2002

Hey PK,

We're neighbors. Just reserved site 164 right across the road. Is it the 10th yet ;) :moon:

FLYIN_KAW · Jul 12, 2002

hahahah I was trying to get 164 while I was on the phone with Papa.
Now I know who got it. :moon: Anyway I got 171 just down the road from you guys. I'll be there Friday night with or without my group. My girlfriend might be coming to. She'll hang out at the beach while we ride. :)

FLYIN_KAW · Jul 12, 2002

Hey guys the sites are going fast better book now.

MrMXer327 · Jul 15, 2002

What's it like getting your bike through customs?

MRRMX · Jul 16, 2002

Customs going into Canada has always been easy...They ask if your bringing the bike back. Yes! U.S customs has asked for ownership on my bike and once on the trailer ... the Registration is proof of ownership.

Where in Pa are you from...........Love Pa... ride there often...

MrMXer327 · Jul 16, 2002

I'm from Central Pa in a small village with a population of 200 or so. There are plenty of exciting things to do here. For example, A bunch of us got together to watch paint dry last weekend and this weekend we're having a rock skippin contest at Mr Beaver's Dam. We also dabble in the arts a bit... We are in the process of sculpting a piece we plan on calling "Dust Buster". This piece will proudly be displayed and demonstrated by the "Sod Squad". The Sod Squad is an elite group of Damn Yanks who live to eliminate any signs of Dust on MXER's MX track. The Sod Squad hope to one day capture the attention of PapaKeith, TreeJumper, LoriKTM and her Better Half for a reunion of the first ever North East Caravan.

Papakeith · Jul 16, 2002

You bringing the Eagle racing team to Turkey Point?

MrMXer327 · Jul 17, 2002

It caught our attention, however, Saving.. Planning.. Preparing for Dirtweek O2 is taking up all of our time. Pat came down about 3 weeks ago and motivated me to wipe the cobwebs off of the 426. Heck, some chipmunks were pretty unhappy when I fired her up and blew their winter storage out the exhaust. The sound of the 4-stroke and all this talk of going to Cooperland has me all worked up about riding again. I feel like a kid ! We are going to pass on Turkey point this round, but we may surprise everyone and show up at one of these rides that is closer to home. Roost On PapaKeith

Papakeith · Jul 23, 2002

Quick question for anyone who has ridden Turkey Point before. What kind of terrain are we going to encounter?
Sand?
clay?
Trees?
Rocks?
gravel?
Any insight would be apreciated. :)

Dapper · Jul 23, 2002

Yup, PK you hit it right on the nose.
Just kidding. I heard sand, whoops and woods. That was from as unreliable source. What aboot that Flyin_Kaw ah? ;)

FLYIN_KAW · Jul 24, 2002

Ya'll stick to you hat cakes and sasage, a let me handle the riding. :)

MRRMX · Jul 24, 2002

Sand...Sand...Sand.... But its not a Sugar sand its a sand the has body to it I guess you could say its stabble to ride on. Dont get me wrong there are spot that are sugar sand...but they are far and few.......It would be great if it rained say thursday night........ Track-SHUN is great compared to hard clay and rocks...........I hope you like whoops........

Dapper · Jul 31, 2002
