Mack, I'd love to come but there will be too many Dave's there. Last count had them at 4+!

No, seriously, Ricky has a soccer tournament in Augusta all weekend. Somebody bring a camera and get some pictures that we can post at the post offic, er, I mean here on DRN.

Alright guys just got done talking to Dave. Looks like we can meet up at Ext.90 on 77 at 9am. It will take approx. an hr. to get there from that point. I would say we'd get there sooner, but I'll have a hard enough time getting my fiance up that early as it is :think: How's that work for you guys? Ocechap, Mack, Jamesgang? Just let me know guys.

Guys I've been leaving out an obvious question I should ask........are the trails wide enough for atv's? My fiance wants to come, but I guess can't if the trails aren't wide enough. Need to know asap. Thanks.

Hey guys,
Sound like a plan. I'll see how the schedule goes if I'll meet you at #90 or down there. I've been dying to try this place and it should be good with the rain. I'll be in a white F-150, YZ250 #439 with a big tank. Where at @ exit 90?

Mark and Bryan, probably the easiest thing to do is exit at 90 and then go straight through the light and park in the KFC parking lot. It's pretty decent sized and probably won't be too busy at that time.

Bryan, I'll call you on the cell in the morning to let you know if I'm going to meet you guys down the road further.

Found out today that all trails will be open tomorrow. You'll be upon the enduro riders/racers if you ride the 8 mile trail.

Thanks for the good time guys, it was a blast. Of course the rest of the DRN crew blew us away, but ocechap,mad mark, and myself had a great time going at a BLISTERING pace for ourselves......ok, we were just staying alive:) It was a good time though and thanks to all that came. Ocechap, Mark we need to hook up again definately, and of course anyone that would like to join is always welcome.

Guys, I had a blast. It was great meeting some of you guys, too bad I couldn't hang with you but a rookies gotta start somewhere I guess. MadMark and FlynBryan helped me with my handlebars so I don't feel like I'm standing on my head when I stand up now. Man what a difference that made. I might actually keep the KX 500 now. I guess that is part of the fun, learning and helping rookies out. I hope I can return the favor sometime! The sand is definitely a different animal and my shoulders and back feel somewhat different this morning, figure that! One thing is for sure, bark busters will be ordered by the end of the day. Geez, all I could think was "watch that tree, watch that tree, watch that tree!" Oh yeah and, "where did my front end go" Every turn it seemed to have a good chance of disappearing. LOL. I kinda sorta figured it out a little near the end. I'm gonna post something on the suspension about setup, but do you guys change your compression for the soft sand like that? It did make for some soft landings that I took though.

Thanks for the fun!

Yeah guys I had a blast. I hope Dave's shoulder is OK. I feel a little sore today. I went mountain biking to try to loosen up a bit. That sand is fun! Hope we can do it again soon. I'll get my clutch in this week. Takl to you soon.

LOL….those 2 strokes are a lot of fun Bryan! I like the signature line. :thumb:

DRNers making the show:

Flynbryan
Dave (screen name?)
Ocechap
MadMark
Mack Reed
The James Gang (Including David, Josh and Walter)
Stumpy
Mark S. (screen name?)
and me.

I probably shouldn’t have been riding as bad as I felt and unfortunately I couldn’t hang with you guys very long. My concentration was so bad all I could do was foot drag through all the corners, hoping not to hit the trees. I felt so bad that I didn’t even make the Basketball games that afternoon.

The way it worked out was cool, having nearly all of Manchester to ourselves. The biggest kick for me was when you asked me about Mark. “Is he fast?” Yep, he’s fast! Bryan was telling me he thought he was keeping Mark at bay for a couple of miles. After a while Mark decided it was time to go and passed Bryan in some fairly tight stuff on the back wheel. :)

David, Mack and Josh are also very fast. :scream:

We need to do this again and hopefully I’ll be able to ride some. Ivan and Gomer, we need to schedule another ride soon, these guys are a great group.

It was great meeting and riding with you guys. :yeehaw:

BTW: If we ever get into a "throwdown" I want Ocechap on my side! :yeehaw:
