Right there with ya' on 2. Sounds like we all will be pretty evenly moded out for this. Should make for a good day then if everyone is in the same boat.

Also, keep in mind, I can take some stragglers at Tellico Cabins if need be at no charge of course. Cabin sleeps 6 and we have 4 in our group so 2 more are welcome if space over at the campsites get tight. We will be right around the corner.

Well if that many people will be there for Friday, I will try and get out of here Thursday night as well, it all depends on my buddy, he works at Toyota and gets off around 6, but he's crazy like me and doens't care about long road trips, so we just make it a late night run into Tellico.

Night runs are fun but we need to be CAREFUL - that is snake territory

Man i couldn't be happier with the wheels. The visual impact is badass. I jsut cant get over the deal I got on them, much less the fact that they were for sale on nearly 3 months on YT and no one jumped on them before me !

2. Seaflea - Will And Donna
3. Dragr1 - Brett and Brandy
4. Doc279 - Doc and possibly Monica / camping

Damn Bert,

I was looking forward to meeting another old fart - just like me !!!!

I understand the family thing - I missed the summer trip last year because of a forgotten family re-union. Trust me the wife will appreciate you more for not going. If you ever head for Tennessee give me a shout - Tellico is only 1.5 hours from the house and we can go. Bring the little woman and she can stay with mine / if she don't like wheeling. The door is open any time - just let me know !

I'll take care of the snakes, if you guys take care of any bees. I hate bees, but don't care about snakes-I'll squash them at will!

I'm probably not up for a night run, that's beer drinking and bullsh!!!! time!!

I just reserved my campsite at Crawford's. Anyone that needs some space to set up a tent is more than welcome to at my site.

I'm definitely game for some good riding on Friday and Saturday, and to be honest, I'm with you Brett on the night riding. It's enough trail riding during the day and hanging out is half the fun!

Yep and us guys with a clutch will be even more worn out after a day!

Doc-glad you're getting the firewood again, need me to bring an axe?
I'll bring some lighter knot to get the fire kicked off good, and I'm sure Brandy will bring tons of marshmellows.

Yeah, I really like cable clutches better though. I guess what really wears me out after a trailriding day is the fact that the seat won't go far enough back and the seat is too close to the floor, so my legs ache-guess I'm getting old or something.

Hey Austin, how do you ever fit in there?

i can take care of the snakes with glock,and the yellow jackets with reg gas!!! as far as night wheeling,that cuts into the time too much as well as trail repairs suck in the daylight,much less in the dark!! if all goes well alison and i will get to murphy late thursday night,camp out at the motel,and head for crawford's first thing friday morning to get checked into the cabin and prepare to tear ˟˟˟˟˟ up!!! later

Fire starter would be good - I have an ax and a bow saw that I carry on the 4 runner all the time. That is why I have the diamond plate tool box mounted outside ! no flying objects. I'll be alone this trip the wife is going to her sisters and I don't have any kids - they all moved out !!!!!

I may bring the new dog - by Tellico he will be 7 months old - black german spaniel named Leon.
