Day Trip Trail Ride--date TBD

[derelict]

I cant make it now. Doing pads/ shoes and glow plugs, along with a couple other things, on the BJ Saturday and into Sunday. Bummed because Ive only been through GW once and had NO idea where I was going so I couldnt find places like Flagpole, etc... Ended up camping on some random mountain top just barely in Va on the border.

You could prob ride shotgun with one of the guys if you still wanted to come check it out. I'd offer my seat, but its already filled.

[Yukon LX]

what do you mean by "really" nice and "rain" in the same sentence?

You should have let me plan this outting - guaranteed blistering hot.

 

[Devilmans Hand]

Is anyone bringing a chainsaw? Nva has had heavy wind and a lot of fallen trees, and I wonder if these trails have/will experience the same.

Just planning ahead...

 

[TRFCSUX]

chainsaw ?

Sam i dont have a chainsaw but i'm going to bring a 4wd Toyota so it won't be a problem.

I appreciate the offer but I daily drive the BJ60 and its time for its safety check so Im going to go through a few things at my parents garage since I am not allowed to do so at my place in Alexandria.

Let's hear it for the National Forest Service!

So what were the tickets written fir, and how much is the fine?

Funny that the reason I wasn't right there with you was the puking incident. First time I've ever felt thankful someone vomited in my vehicle.

 

[Von Hayek]

For those of you who received tickets on Saturday, I think that I have talked Mitch Goldman into coming to the meeting on Wednesday. Mitch is a National Forest Ranger, a wheeler as well, and his written tickets like the ones you guys got. His exact words were "It is not a fun job." But he said he would be willing to talk to you guys about it.

Since wednesday is my wife's birthday, I'll miss the meeting. But I'd be interested to hear his opinion about whether hiding just out of sight IS the best way to keep people off that land, or if it's simply the best way to generate $ 1, 500 revenue in about 45 minutes.

 

[Black Op]

Felix, I owe you a beer or several for coming back and letting us know about the ranger. I was headed up the hill and you stopped me. Thanks.

All, I am willing to chip in some cash to help offset this.

Can you expand on this (what happened) ?

were most of the trails ok to drive but specific sections led to citations?

 

[Devilmans Hand]

We had a great time. Thanks to Tracy for letting us all tag along his family trip and for organizing the outing. The weather was great and the turnout was the best I've ever seen in the club.
The fines were a downer, but they may be fightable.
