2014 Schedule/Comment Thread
« on: October 28, 2013, 06:07:23 PM »
GaTR members, post up your thoughts of the 2013 schedule; the rides and other events. Lets hear what you thought, and don't just blow sunshine up our tail pipes either. If there is something you didn't  like, say it and give us some suggestions as to what would make it better.

Give us any wish list rides as well for 2014. What are your MUST ride locations and are there any new spots you would like to see in the calendar.

Grey Rock would be good, but I am unsure if the $1000 flat rate is actual.  It might be that the $1K covers the first 'x' rigs and that there is an additional charge for more.  It would be good to contact the owner to get a firm price.  The ride I went on ended up costing $80 or $90 for the two days.  If the club wanted to rent the park  I think it would be good to collect the fee in advance to make sure we didn't have a lot of no-shows jacking up the price for everyone else.

The informal group I went with does a Spring ride there as well, so it might work to try to go the same weekend.

I thought that the 2013 ride schedule was very good despite all the rain we had.

I can't see many in this club paying $80-$100 for a ride fee. Factor in gas prices, food and other things most will bow out. Not that I don't want to do this, but each ride for me is a budgeted event, and that budget is tight  //;D//
I've grown tired of this.

I was there and it wasn't that much. Its something to look into and I don't think it based off numbers but a flat fee.

The more we can have commit up front the cheaper it could be. Just need 20 rigs to make it $50 for the weekend. Any more than that and it could be one of the cheaper parks.

Gray rock is $850 for 10 rigs. After the 10 it is $75 each above that. That is what it was the last time we rented the park.

Thanks.  Very doable.

Are there trails for all levels of rigs?

Yes. But most trails are more difficult. //letseat//

Kvom and Mortalis5509 can tell you they where there.

that comes out to $80 per rig if you have 20.  That's expensive.

On the high side but the price of admission. If we don't have enough (10) that will pay it we will need to go with the other group.
