What are your Memorial Day plans?

Anyone going wheeling Memorial Day weekend? There's a group of us in S.A. looking for something to do.

I would be up for it. I have a friend coming into town for the first time and he has never seen Texas. I figure its a good way to show him around, and well, show myself around for that matter!

I think I'm going to head to either Katemcy or Boulder Creek for a day trip or one night camp on Memorial Day Saturday/Sunday. Anyone interested?

So which park should we visit? Katemcy and Boulder Creek are the exact same distance for me so I'm good either way.

I Believe you have to have a certain amount of drivers to get into katemcy, I would say boulder creek.

Actually, Katemcy is having a big weekend bash. There's a posting about it on the Dallas website and several people are coming down from Dallas for the three day weekend. That being said, I'm fine with Boulder Creek.

I think it's going to come down to a coin toss. Or maybe the weather. Dry rock vs. dry dirt; wet rock vs. wet dirt, or mud as it's sometimes known.

I want to get on the rocks, never have before. I want a nice challenge for my soon to be freshly locked rear end.

Yeah I would say so, I haven't really wheeled this truck yet so I don't want to throw it to the beast right away.

Yes, I'm thinking low to moderate. I'm not looking for a lot of repair work after the weekend. I want to drive home with the family and truck intact.

Ok, so I just got the 411 from Howard at Boulder Creek.


1. It is $65 per driver to camp, wheel, and participate in the activities for the ENTIRE weekend (Friday through Monday). $25 per passenger for the ENTIRE weekend.
2. We can camp on the trail if we want. Most people will camp in the front, but we are more than welcome to camp on the 750.
3. There are multiple off-road groups going including the Austin Rovers and Crawltex.
4. Registration can be done upon arrival, however, they would like an approximate number of attendies for planning purposes. If we let him know ahead of time, they will check out the trail conditions before arrival.
5. About 100 or so markers have been installed on the trails in the last couple of weeks. Yeehaw!

Some of the highlights are: Wheeling all of the days, guided sunset trail rides, and night time riding is allowed until 10:30 p.m (otherwise known as cherry-time). There will be a sponsored lunch and other fun stuff.



Who's in?

I'm no longer sure if my cruiser is going to be trail ready, she is a bit old. However I'm still up to go, I could register as a passenger or something like that.
