I am looking to join GATR as a CORE member. This would be my first ride out with the group. Is there anything special I need to bring as in camping gear or anything? Also I am wondering If my truck would be to wide for the trails in Helen.  Thank you any info would be appreciated.

This ride is open so these arent required this time but I never go without them on any form of ride

Just because it is an open ride doesn't mean they aren't "required", but for the FS road ride there is some leeway with what is required to ride. For future rides and just for good measure, they are all important items to have in your rig.

Due to screwed up shipping I busted my butt last year installing a CB between ambulance calls the night prior. Could I have shown up without one and still rode? Yeah probably, but I respected that Doug wanted everyone possible to have one to keep communication flowing. I think meeting the requirements is the least someone can do to take care of themselves when there are 50+ others involved.

yes, you could have ridden with us, and we would have put you between 2 folks with radios to keep you in the loop as needed, but everyone is welcome on this trip.

This should be a great day and we will see a lot of mountains and trails.

At the moment, but I wasn't going to, but now I'm planning to end up near Helen.  We may have an additional optional trail that leads us into dark if folks are interested...let me know.

Since this will be our first ride, was wanting to know if for whatever reason, someone needs to head back home before the trail ride is done, is that possible, or once inline you must first reach the end of the destination?

@Bear

Great question.   

You can leave at anytime.   

All we ask is that you let one of the club members know that you are ok, and just heading out and don't need assistance. We will help with directions if need be.   

Also PLEASE let the rig behind you know so the rest of the group doesn't end up at your house!   Lol.

I wheeled with you last year and it was a blast!! Well organized!!  I expect the answer is no, but I am unable to make the start time. Is there a way to meet up in the early afternoon?  If not that's a bummer for me but I understand.
