For those of you not planning on the LMC harescrambles, and looking for a "warm up" before Trailfest, the weekend of October 1,2,3 I am getting a group together to do some riding up this way. So far we (tenatively) have 2Big4aKDX, Nestrick, Creeper9, Rideblue (Tom - he never posts here though and he also rides Orange!), a buddy of Creepers (on a NEW 525!) maybe a couple of local guys (yet another NEW 525 and a NEW 450!), and myself planning on riding.
No real specifics are pinned down yet and I am sure this ride will be no where near as neat of a ride as what I am sure Trailfest will be (I will be at Trailfest for certain!) - but a nice chance to ride and hang out. I have plenty of room here at my house for campers, tents or what ever (we will re-route the grass track around you if we have to!), plus some local motel options, and if you dont smell to bad, my wife might allow you some floor space in the living room.
We will likely play around here at my place on the grass track (just over 1 mile long) Creeper thinks he can prove that his puny little 250 is faster than my 300... :nener:, (he seems to forget about those 2 Long straight sections!) as well as some time on my woods trail with a couple of new short near virgin sections. The woods loop has gotten shorter this year due to some erosion problems by my creek - so it is now maybe 2 miles max in length, but still fun and challenging. We will certainly then either ride right from here north to the Atlanta system, or maybe south to Hunt Creek and Mio...or we may trailer to who knows where! And of course, some bench racing and telling of lies around the camp fire each evening. I am planning on riding all 3 days, and you are welcome to arrive Thursday evening if you can, and leave on Monday if you like!
So if anyone is interested, send me your direct email address and I will send you directions and more details as things firm up. If I dont see you here...I will see you all at Trailfest a couple weeks later!
