Based upon the success of this year's event in Cullman, AL, planning has begun for the 2nd Annual get together. The weekend has been locked in (if you H8 it, blame @1978HJ45 and @peterb - I had nothing to do with it

) and will be the 23-25th of September 2016. Based upon feedback for a more diverse selection of trails and terrain, we have selected to use Windrock Park in Oliver Springs, TN as the base area. We will likely utilize a hotel in nearby Oak Ridge, TN as our base of operations.
Between Windrock and two TWRA wildlife management areas (Royal Blue and Sundquist), there are over 300,000 acres open to us to ride with the appropriate permits so we should be able to find something for everyone! These areas are "pay to ride" areas, so there will be some cost.
Preliminary thoughts on a rough schedule center on trail rides on Friday and Saturday with Thursday and Sunday set aside as travel days. Of course there will be the obligatory BS sessions, but we have learned that those need not be scheduled
We will post to this thread and update this first post with more info as plans firm up, but we wanted to get the date set and notification out so that folks can block their calendars. We would note that the "Southeast" reflects the location of the event .... foreigners (including Yankees over Charles' objections) are surely welcome.
Your unofficial committee,
