I obviously don't know him as I'm new to the forum but I could make it.

You don't have to know anyone to fit in with this group. Best bunch of guys you'll find and some of the best riding in the state.

Yeah, if I ride on the first this will be the ride. You will enjoy Slade. Very nice place.

Most of the people are great. However, they hang with this Jimmy guy and we are not real sure about him....... he traded a XP 900 for a Wildcat...   

  

Cool. I will be there then. Can I bring my 7 year old co-pilot or is it adults only?

Bring anyone. Kids are free! Were a family oriented bunch.

Never been to Slade. Is this a one day ride? Any type of camping? Cabin rentals? Or hotels?

Slade is a great time. Ran into some woods cops down there in January in the Jeep so may want to stay on the private property and away from Sand Lick area (Federal Property).

There is a huge battle that has been going on down there for the past few years between USFS and local government and wheelers. In 2006 the USFS took control of county owned roads and dug trenches to keep people off of them. Needless to say it has been a long road but some traction is starting to be made against the USFS. If you folks use Facebook you may want to join the Friends of Boone page. Same concept of Friends of the Rubicon (trail).

I'll see if I can rearrange my schedule for the day and head over that way on the first as opposed to Wildcat. If not I will send some cash to the funeral home.

There is camping at Dr. Chops and a good enexpensive hotel close by. The LiL Abner 606-663-5384. It's nothing fancy but it's clean and cheap. Ive stayed there several times myself.

We will not be riding on closed trails.

Great bunch of guys and for a good cause.

Going to try and make this one myself depending on work.

I've seen pics and have wanted to ride Slade for a long time. Just Googled it and it's about 140 miles away which is doable and would like to help out as well. Will this ride hit all the or most of the places I've seen pics of in that place?

Yes. We can ride as much as you want and I'd say some will stay and ride Sunday too.

I am planning to make this one. They are a great group of people and a good cause.

I will be there, great people and a great place to ride. Will we be leaving from Brian's (I'm camping there) or the gas station up the road? The have great sandwiches there for the trail.

I'm in. Going to be a late night getting there since I won't be able to leave until after work Friday.

How big of a place does Brian have for camping. Me and DMACK were planning on just coming for Saturday, but might change.

He has room for ya Gimpy but no hookups.

Thanks, we will see. Does he have 110 that would charge while the furnace runs?
