Ad-Hoc Nov 1 2009 Ride Discussion thread

Just got back from pre-ride for tomorrow's ride...  It has been raining some but doesn't seem to be too bad.  There is one part of our planned trip that has been bulldozed this week.  We will probably miss this part due to the fresh clay on top..  Dooable but slick and steep and we don't want to have any problems.  I think it is suppose to be 39F for the low tomorrow so bring a jacket...  hahahaha..

Still meeting at 10am sharp...  Should be fun... 

Here are some photos of our pre-ride...

Making sure I have this correct.... we are meeting at the intersection of GA-2E and US-76E, is that correct? I'll input that into the GPS. I am in Warner Robins area, looks like 3.5-4hrs travel time each way, thinking about heading up tonight and getting a hotel. If this isn't correct, what is a good place/intersection to use?

*Edit* - ok, I see Vickers Rd/GA-76 is a good intersection to use. Google Earth says almost 4hrs each way.... now I'm deciding to drive up tonight or just do it all tomorrow...

Andy, Mike, Mikes Dad, and the guy in the Cherokee(sorry forgot your name  {ehm})

It was great meeting you all today.  Had a great time!  Way different that what we get in FL, too bad it was so slick, piloting that 12000lb beast is way different in the slick mud up here, than the sandy trails back home!

I didnt get any pics today, was too busy trying to stay "out" of the ruts! LOL
Thanks for all the help today as well.

Mike-
Can you email me the pics of my truck please? It'll make a great addition to my folder. Thanks!

See you all in the morning.

we won't be going through any deep water, no need for drain plugs.

[swamprat]

No deep water fording?  That sucks.

But I'm excited to go!  See everyone in the morning.
