Suthin SF - TNT

[Motogrl307]

Tamed down? I liked it the way it was. Well I hope to make it down this weeknd. It has warmed up here and I can ride in the mud here now, but was hoping to get some good riding in before qualifiers in a couple of weeks.

It is disappointing at first for the riders who jump everything (or most everything), but it is appropriate for the majority of riders.

It also makes for more fun passing people. Before, it all came down to whether or not you did the jumps. Now, since almost everyone can do most of the jumnps, it makes passing people a little more interesting.

So how many are camping? And what's the BS factor going to be around the campfire? I want to get down Sat morning with lil Z as soon as possible. BTW, what time does Barbara open the gates? James, PS2 looks like this:

1. Socom & headset
2. MX rider
3. ATV offroad fury
4. gt3
5. gta3
6. nba shootout 03
7. mlb slugfest 03
8. (and others)
   [/list=1]
   
   Ivan, do we have a head count yet?

 

[truespode]

Nothing specific. I'm guessing 20 or so people.

I have MX Rider, The Carmichaels, and GT A spec, and some PS1 MX & misc PS2 games. So we'll probably be able to stay entertained without you bringing a whole bunch of stuff. I hear you and lil Z play a mean MX Rider and I'd be open to getting schooled at the ATV.

Gates open at 10:00 I believe.

Gomer..Just the two 50 riders are coming from Lexington which day would be best?

 

[High Lord Gomer]

BOTH!! We're going to be there Saturday, then Saturday night we'll have a night-time poker run. Of course you guys have to run the pro class in that event due to your extensive experience in that area!

Then the Sunday morning ride with one eye open until the Advil kicks in session. Followed by hanging _SOLO_ from a tree because he roosted all of us that were a little under the weather.

What about "Smiley" on the DR? (See how good I am with names?) I think he was even smiling when he got his second flat of the day!

 

[flynbryan]

Night poker run..................:laugh: time to break out the duct tape and flash lights!!!:laugh: This is getting better and better! :aj:

 

[o'neal]

Smiles because two flats riding is still better than building tires at work!

 

[flynbryan]

Gomer what will the night time poker run consist of ? Never done any kinda poker run......let alone at night?

 

[High Lord Gomer]

It is somewhat dependent on the trails being cleaned up some. Don't want people riding at night if there are still big ruts.

Anyway, we'd do a short loop through the woods and at the end of each lap, a rider gets to draw a card. Best hand wins, but I have to warn you, Ivan claims to alsready have 7 aces.

GOOD NEWS!! I talked to Barbara and they have made some more changes to the track! Added some berms and more turns down in the bottom section as well as another rythm section.

 

[flynbryan]

Gomer could we possibly pick and choose the good sections of the track to run on? :think: If it works out sounds like it could be fun. Hey, if Dave comes w/us you'll have to rag him pretty hard about his last accident :laugh: Oh and the changes sound great.......only problem is I :Sooper Secret Mode ON: Definately DON'T ride MX anymore...especially since my future wife will be there that weekend.....:Sooper Secret Mode OFF: :moon: So I'll have to pass.

 

[o'neal]

Gomer Can i get wild cards for laps done on my XR50?

 

[tireman]

Hey Gomer if I ride Saturday how many tubes would you suggest I bring? But if you enjoyed changing them for me I'll leave my tire irons home. Ha Ha.
Thanks for all the help in Sumter, I really appreciate it.

You're wild enough!

Tireman / Smiley...are you coming?

 

[High Lord Gomer]

:yeehaw: GOOD NEWS! :yeehaw: Barbara has a special surprise for all Spodefest attendees! :yeehaw:

If you're coming, make sure your name is on this list, as only those people will receive the "surprise". I'll post details after I make a definitive list.

 

[truespode]

Oooohhhhh!! Can my name be on the list? Please, pretty please... I'll be good... I promise I won't steal your clothes and throw them in the creak like last time... and I won't eat your sandwiches (just the bread) :)

Ivan

 

[James]

I am coming, but I don't know how I feel about being listed :scream: :confused: :thumb:

 

[High Lord Gomer]

Better than being "de-listed"! :scream:

I'll update Ivan's post at the beginning of this thread with a list. ANybody correct me if wrong / missing.

O'neal...I need the other guy's name.

 

[mliebal]

Hi guys,
Intermediate level lurker here. I am planning on attending.
I have met a few of the guys over the past few years.

Don't let James fool anyone in thinking he is a slow trail rider, ha!
I would not want to miss Linus's cookout, that is still on isn't it Linus?

This sounds like a blast!
I'll be there Fri-mid day Sun (probably about the time the Advil kicks in).

Count me in as a camper!
Sleep, who needs any sleep?
Now to contact MXTUNER to find out how to get a bike started that has been sitting for 3 months, ugh.
Old -n- slow
Mike Liebal

 

[flynbryan]

Names are as follows for the rest of my companions Gomer:
Another Mark(not to be confused w/mad mark, this ones just accident prone)
Andrew
Tangela(my soon to be wife;) )
and possibly a fourth yet to be announced person(possible uncle or Mark's g/f)
We're there and looking forward to it even though the weather leading up to the weekend doesn't look to great.......We're hard core!! :aj: :confused:

 

[linusb]

Mike - Hey man...you should post more often. (Like I'm one to talk)

The bike hasn't sold yet so that is good for my riding situation. I will try to haul both the 'big butt smoker' and the bike up on Saturday. I don't envision camping, but who knows.

My smoker will barely hold 2 full racks of spare ribs and it takes 5 or 6 hours to slow cook em. I reckon with Gomer's appetite for meat ( :p ) we may have to hold him back. It'll be first come first serve....just as long as someone saves me one or two. The good news is that I can barbecue ribs lots better than I can ride a dirt bike! :laugh:

Regarding the weather...is there a rain contingency? This has got the be the rainiest year I can remember.

lmao....... :)

 

[mliebal]

Linus- Good to hear you still have a ride!
As far as posting, it takes me too long to type.

I can smell them ribs now! I guess you need a lock on the smoker!

Bring a sleeping bag, I got an extra bed in the pop-up if you want to camp. Just remember to lock the door to keep the wild animals out. Not sure who you can trust.

Rain contingency: good grief I think loss of sanity is my contingency if I don't get to ride.

Mike

 

[High Lord Gomer]

Ooohhh, someone's gonna pay!!

In the event of too much rain, the plan is to head down to Manchester SF. There you can ride during the pouring rain and not find a puddle.

Everyone that will be coming as part of the SF needs to make sure their name is on the list by Monday. At that point we will unveil the surprise that Barbara has planned.
