Labor Day Weekend Ride / camp (sept 2-3)
« on: July 29, 2012, 05:01:18 PM »
Hey guys,

I am working on getting a little offroad/camping trip scheduled for Labor Day weekend. I have a buddy coming in town from Louisiana with his rubicon for the trip. I've been planning to show him some better trails than what he is used to riding. I am considering Beasley, but haven't set the place yet. We will plan to ride out early on Sunday, wheel sunday, camp, and leave on Monday. Anyone is welcome to join. Suggestions on destinations are also appreciated.  Thanks

Edit: planning on Saturday/sunday instead.

I might be in. Just gotta see how far along this current project is. If your wanting to show him some good trails, you may want to look at places lie Morris Mountain or Chocco.

Either way I might be in!!

Good point. Beasley can be done in well under a day esp in a vehicle with lockers and decent tires. You do always run the risk of it being closed due to rain. It is cheap at $5 but the camp ground is just a gravel lot. You should probably attempt to find a nicer place to camp if you do Beasley. I might be game to go but just depends on what we already have planned I don't know about yet!

Yeah, hopefully you guys can join.  I haven't been to morris mountain or chocco, but I'm good with whatever. We'd like to stay reasonably close (within a couple of hours) as they will be driving back to Louisiana on Monday. I just want them to see how different our terrain is than theirs. And that our trails are so much better!  Haha

Side note: Hopefully gears, locker, axle shafts, and gusset and truss kit can be done before, but i don't think i can make it happen that soon.

Go to Chooco.  It is west in AL within a few hours of ATL and gives them a head start towards home. There is plenty to do for stock to wild.  Hotels close and camping on site with a bath house.

Might can make this one too. They'll post the labor day schedule here soon, then I will know for sure.

I'd take them to Choccolocco. My .02.

I'm up for Chocco. Never been, so I always like checking out new trails.

Due to the NASCAR race we will likely move the ride to Saturday. Probably still camp sat night, I hope many of you can still make it!  Sorry for the change

Saturday night camping may work better for me than Sunday.

I love Chocco, I'll see if I can make this.
