Is there any interest in this run? If not, we will have to cancel and open property to other NEA clubs.
 
Being that this property is open year round we can always reschedule at a later date.
 
At this point should probably cancel this run.
 
We are going to postpone and reschedule this trail ride due to lack of interest. Thanks
 
20 bucks is a little steep for a mild trail. I can run the whole F&F for 15 bucks and have way more fun!
 
It's private property and it has been $20 for as long as I have been a member. Not everyone has a built rig that can Make it through F&F.

Fun is different for everyone. Personally, driving in circles over and over again on a few limited pieces of property isn't fun. Fun for me it's driving to destinations not yet seen and exploring new to me trails and sights.
 
So where are some new trails???

Gremlin is fun and I would have gone if I remembered.

Old Florida road was New to schedule and nobody had interest there either. That was a fun adventure. Not a circle but up and down a mountain.
Mabell was New to schedule too..
 
I'd be very game for OFR run again and/or Mabel.

Legal public stock and stock-plus roads are out there, but its a lot of work to find them. I spent yesterday doing reccon along VT and MA border trails/roads. Discoverd lots of stock and stock plus trails, and amazing vista view points (also some very deep mud...).
 
I also did an unexpected stock plus plus trail 15 min from my house last evening. Buddy mine lives right by. He said he sees clubs or lines of jeeps going there a lot. It wasnt planned....not aired down...used both lockers in spots. Made my passengers nervous. Ha. My buddy said I never been this far in this trail in my jeep.
 
Lots of roads out there that could be explored, but are they all legal? Don't know. But just because there are lines of Jeeps there all the time doesn't mean it is. Research! Back when I first joined YT (2000) we ran a bunch of places where there "were lines of Jeeps" most of them turned out to be illegal trails, back then Swanzey wasn't anyplace you could really wheel.
 
I fully concur Lane, lots of guys out there poaching trails on private land. Moderate and advance trails are very hard to come by on public land. On a routine basis cable gates are cut by 4 wheelers on my family's property in Western Mass.

I'm searching for public roads suitable for stock and stock plus vintage trucks. There are quite a few in western mass, but all very short runs <2 miles.
