So does the whole club want to go to the BBRC event or does everyone want to go somewhere else?
I'm trying to shake that weekend free. I'd be game for bbrc if I'm free
Windrock - Fall Jamboree - 10/17-10/19

Harlan - Fall Crawl 10/18-10/20

(the clickable link doesn't actually take you to any additional details, but seems to confirm RK's dates)
BBRC is the following weekend, and seems to divide our group. Ugh, seems our scheduling hit some bad luck here...

I have been at Windrock (I still want to call it Coal Creek since the land is owned by Coal Creek Mining and Manufacturing), when one of these Jamborees was there .... you really do not want to be there at the same time. There is a lot of space, but the trails cannot absorb that many ATVs and SxSs at one time .... my $0.02 ...
I can't get off work for any of this and also don't want to be gone any more than I have to since my dog is reeeeeeallly starting to get old now. She hates to be away from me but can't travel and be in new places with new people/dogs.
I'd vote for BBRC if I could go only because I could tie in a trip to my folks about an hour away.

EDIT - wow! I hit 1000!

It appears Upstate Cruisers moved its fall trip to Oct 25-27 weekend. Black Balsam Weekend I believe it is called in the Blue Ridge Mtns. Has to be closer than 5+ hours to bbrc event

My BIL was talking to Gimpey about that trip and is planning on going; unless the weather suxs. He's been to Balsam many times hiking and camping and loves the area. The fall colors ought to be peaking (or maybe not).

Only issue for me is that it's about 5 hrs from RDU...that's a haul in a 60...love to do it nevertheless

^^ that's what he said and is taking the Tundra instead. I understand the trails are real mild and more like forest service roads to get to the scenic points. Mr Free knows this place well, I'm sure. I've never been but have to work.

There is only one trail per say and that is the entrance to black balsam. The road is intentionally not maintained. Nothing a stock ride can not handle but you will receive some pinstriping. There are a couple rutted out spots to contend with as well. As far as i know the club is going to camp Friday night, eat at pisgah inn for lunch Saturday then cruise the parkway and return to balsam that night.

So what's the official call on the October trip?
Harlan and Windrock are out for the original weekend planned.
And now there are two scheduled local club meets for the following weekend.
We could reschedule the Harlan trip to replace the originally scheduled Black Balsam trip in November to make it up, as the other Harvest Hauls have been in November anyway.
