"Morris Mountain ORV park will be open on the 2nd and 4th weekends of every month only. Note this does not apply to privately rented events."

I don't remember seeing this on thier website in the past but then again I have only been to Morris Mountain once. Bottom of the home page.

Doubt I will be there. Just sent carburetor to Mark and also have to fix e-brake. It may happen within the next week, but I doubt it.
Kinda bummed, I really wanted to go to Morris Mtn.

C'mon Sid, get Mark on it and he can air-mail it back to you! Hope to see you there!

very funny, where'd i put my beer...

Yup, making the suggestion, mark it on your calendars that I actually suggested Beasley as a viable option.

it's an hour closer (for most anyway), a hell of a lot cooler and cheaper. that there is whatcha call a trifecta

Dogs out. Just had a two hour surgical procedure today, under local anesthia(?) that left me with about 30 stiches inside and out. I feel like I just rolled all the way down the Wall at Beasley without a roll cage. At least the pain meds are good

Dad and I are good with Beasley if you're scared of Morris Mountain

bummer, thought you had a hall pass.

 

[schmitty]

Do we want to caravan or are we just meeting at the trails/ Home Depot? I vote for meeting at Home Depot at 9-9:30am

 

[Griffin]

will be my first time wheeling something other than power lines and hunting trails. I've been in a few scrapes, but I'm hoping for something more challenging at Beasley.

I'm fine with that if that's how you guys go up but I always thought you went up through Cleveland. Figure it out and let me know, otherwise, i can caravan up with Robert and meet you guys at Turners Corner about 9:30

glad to have you along, Beasley is steep, I mean really steep in places and it will definltey be a challenge. I'd highly recommend getting cb if you dont already have one.
