This has been one of the most anticipated rides of the year, Tracy City 2010. You've all heard the stories of broken axles and lost riders from last year's adventure, if you haven't it's good reading.
So this year will be a little different, smaller group and a voluntary over-night stay. We're also trying to design a mixed run of hard corp and intermediate obstacles so everyone can enjoy themselves but it's still coming together.
Saturday Morning 9:00 AM EST
Saturday Morning 10:30 AM EST (9:30 CST)
Current stream conditions: 5/12:
As of today's conversation it sounds like the rivers/streams are fordable and if current condition remain relatively unchanged we should be good. If it rains of any "measurable" amount leading into next weekend the water levels could pose a problem but we won't know until next week.
Along with the required list of stuff below we need everyone to bring a little firewood. If we all get a good "arm full" we should have enough for the night.
REQUIREMENTS

EXTRA FUEL and topped off gas tanks
Camping Equipment
Signed 2010 Liability waiver
CONFIRMED ATTENDEES: 5/21/10--10 Rigs

Saturday Morning 9:00 AM EST
Meet at the Flying J Truck Stop just like last year--Pillguy-Don't be late on this one!
Travel the approx 60 miles from the Flying J to Andy's shop with a "gas up" just before we get there.

Meet Andy at RadioRidge (his shop) and drop the trailers for the weekend
RadioRidge
23 Courthouse Sq
Jasper, TN 37347-3531
We'll be on the trail roughly 1-2 hours in before stopping to setup camp. From there we'll wheel the remainder of the day or until Ben picks up all of his parts, which ever happens first.
FYI--This is not to be taken as legal advise, I'm only passing along information and if you don't like it too da** bad!
The "Local Understanding" about running NON-street legal rigs on the roads. From Andy's shop to the trail head we have to travel about 4-5 miles of paved road. Apparently, as long as we have at least a legal truck front and rear of the convoy we shouldn't have any issues with the local LIOs.

We'll most likely be hitting the trail on the way out no later than 10AM. Andy has someplace he's got to be so if we can't find our way out on our own we gotta follow him out.
