Sorry to hijack...........what are the closest trails to NoVA??? I grew up in Great Falls and the closest place I knew of was GWNF. Is there anything closer???

filthyrich · 12-15-05, 08:35 PM

I am not going to make it. I have not had a chanve to change my fluids, the wife wants the kitchn repainted and I am going to start working on one of my motorcycles.

PErhaps in Feb. for me. My son will be born January 16th, so I will be busy for a minute

Put me down for the next trip burl goes on....dieing to get out on the trail with him again.
Also, im sure im not the only one whos thinking about it, but look that river crossing over really well, with all this rain im sure its pretty high.

green73 · 12-15-05, 11:45 PM

Hey Burl! Did you ever get the pix developed from my ummmm.... mishap on "schoolbus" a couple GSMTR's ago?

Felix · 12-16-05, 01:54 PM

If anyone from the D.C. area gets the day off or something, meet me at the Wendy's off 66 in Manassas at 7:30 a.m. My cell is 240-997-9244.

Felix · 12-18-05, 07:18 AM

Thanks again, Charlton. I had a great time!

For those that missed out, he and I (along with a couple friends from the clcc) first went in the back end of Salt Shed where we ran into a group from the Shenandoah Valley 4 Wheelers club. We decided to tag along with them as they went up Second Mountain and came down Old Long Run. Beautiful scenery, and the snow and ice made it interesting.

Then the 2 of us went back to Salt Shed to run the majority of the trail that we'd skipped earlier. The water crossings didn't seem nearly as deep as the pics I saw, but the layers of ice over some of the mud holes gave us some trouble.

Once again, my camera sucks. So hopefully the others will post some better pictures.

filthyrich · 12-18-05, 07:33 AM

I wished I could have made it. Second Mountain is so beautiful at the top.

We need to have a large VA run in January.
can't wait to see more pics

I also had an excellent time! It was great meeting everyone.

I would also like to thank the Shen Valley 4 Wheelers for letting us tag along.

I haven't had a chance to look at my pics yet but I will post the good ones.

Lets do it again soon!

Sorry we missed you.

Yeah, sorry about that. We were running a little late and didn't get there till about 10:00 (edit: I'm slow). btw, did you get your bumper?

Dan, great pics! Looking forward to seeing the others. Sebastien got a pretty cool shot of Charlton coming down Long Run.

Felix · 12-21-05, 11:24 AM
