April Trip: Spring Tide Ride, OBX

[GarnerFJ40]

Anymore people going to the Tide Ride, or is everyone waiting on the finals from the BOD meeting?

BOD scheduled for tomorrow. I'll work on a new revised schedule of events, times, maps, and particulars once we iron out some specifcs. It's going to help for as accurate a number of people attending to get good prices on everything.

Just post up. I'd even like to know from you if you're NOT going!

Not going, much to my chagrin, dammit.

Damn, i'm going to the beach the 17-20, if im not broke after that, i'll be there... haha
with my lab/springer, and ME

 

[southerncruiser62]

96Cruiser13, we need a commitment, If you can't commit by this friday 4/10 and you show up, the arrangements will be your responsibility. This is only because we have to let the appropriate individuals know regarding campsites, food, ferry access, etc.

 

[99UZJay]

Sounds like fun, i'd love to go but we already have plans to be there in May... Have a great time...

t shirt

are y'all making t shirts from that original picture with the dates? if so, please let me know, that looks incredible i would love to have a couple

 

[GarnerFJ40]

Yes, shirts order will be placed today. Various sizes so we get a good mix, but a re-issue is always possible. Schedule will be posted today, within a few hours. Yes, I meant to get it out WAY sooner, but it's a learning experience...

 

[GarnerFJ40]

Here it is:

I'll provide copies, maps, and etc as a "packet" when you meet up with me. Let me know if I've forgotten anything..

 

[southerncruiser62]

Do we have an update on the Thursday crowd and ferry status?

 

[GarnerFJ40]

Ramon and I are working out the ferry status. Seems that Cedar Island has no space on it's ferry for a trailer his size. So we're working on the Swan's Quarter booking. I'll update everyone when we find something out. If you're coming at a different time than the Thursday crowd, I'd book your ferry reservation now...

 

[GarnerFJ40]

UPDATE to Schedule:

Thursday Crowd: leaving Swan Quarter at 10:00am, need to be there at least 30 minutes before departure. Fares have all been paid for, so you all owe me money! 4 Singles $15, 2 Doubles $30, and the one triple $45.

If you have not booked your campground area at Ocracoke:
Federal recreation, camping and tour reservation information - Recreation.gov

Choose Section D for general group, but they'll assign spots when we check in...

Cool Brian. Thanks man. I got slammed at work. I assume I'm the XXXL

Just to clarify, so ppl don't be hatin' on me.... there were no double spaces available at all on the Cedar Island for 7:30 or 10:30 - let alone a triple (damn 18" too long, story of my life )

I hope there is an XXXL or at least and XXL with my name on it

Yeah, I called the lady back, and was hoping that you didn't already book your space. I'm also assuming that Allen's trailer is not as big as yours...
I wanted to make sure everyone got on at the same time, so I went ahead and did it. We just have to make sure we're all there...

Yep, I made sure there were some 3X shirts in the order. I split it through 5-3X, 5-2X, 15-XL, 5L, 5M, 5S. Dibs go to who are on the trip, then leftovers go up for sale... I think Barry gets a free one for the use of his copyrighted mug and 40!

 

[GarnerFJ40]

If I offered 4 kayaks and gear to use for others down there, would that sway you?

Jerry, I should be able to carry those kayaks for you...

Now that's funny. The last time I had anything to do with club shirts, I actually drew the artwork and sent them to the silkscreener. All I wanted from them was a free shirt for my time & art and they gave me hell about it. I didn't do anything on this one and you guys are offering one!

You guys are so great...sniff, sniff....I love you guys.

Has a meetup time and location been set for those wishing to caravan Thursday morning? I recall hearing something about I40 or Highway 264, but may have missed any followup.............

 

[southerncruiser62]

There is a Kangaroo Station I believe on the right at Rand Road off Hwy 70, should we make that the location or do we want to try a breakfast location. If so at Shotwell road there is a Bojangles and Biscuitville.

 

[GarnerFJ40]

I vote for Bojangles off Shotwell in Clayton for meetup... 9:30 at the ferry, 3.5 hours drive time (if no stops), leave by 6 at the latest. Meet at 5am for breakfast?

Sorry it took a while to reply, this reply got lost from me.

If we can't get together, I should be able to get at least two with me, if not all 4. I'm mostly wanting to bring them to help others avoid having to rent some. Lets talk about what might work best for both of us since I don't want to unduly burden you. It might be best to get them in your hands this weekend and I can also give you what we cut off of Mike's 80 for frame repair for you...
