Okay that is in downtown Jamestown. We will meet you at the Walmart SuperCenter. Just ask someone how to get there. I will meet you there at 8:00am CST. AT&T Cell phone doesn't work. So PM Highlander or BlakeT and exchange cell numbers. We will be leaving the Walmart Supercenter in Jamestown at 8:00am CST.

No Permits are required. You better bring lunch and bring enough for Rooster. He likes to eat all day long....

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Sun Dec 13, 2009 8:02 pm

Rooster.......do you plan on riding till after dark? No problem if so, just curious about what the plan is.

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Sun Dec 13, 2009 8:06 pm

We will probably get back to the Vehicles just before dark, which is at 4:00pm CST. BTW, the Ride is starting at 9:00am CST.....From the Dry Hollow Church.....And I won't be riding on Sunday. Got family plans already.

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Sun Dec 13, 2009 8:08 pm

No problem. We may just do some leisurely trail riding Sunday. William and I both have to leave Sunday evening so we will no doubt only ride till about 2pm. We are going to try and squeeze in a Friday night ride too!

Why don't you just go up and camp with LT. He has a rolling hotel...

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Sun Dec 13, 2009 11:15 pm

i would buti dont know if he has any more beds in his trailer

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Mon Dec 14, 2009 6:37 am

At this point I do not. I have already extended an invitation to a friend and his son. If he decides not to come then I might be able to squeeze you in. I sleep on a cot which takes up less room than the bed I had built in there. I took the bed apart because it was a pain to set up. Using cots I can get two-three cots in the floor in there. William has a bigger trailer than mine. I will give him a call and see who all he has in there. Smith, is it only you, or your Dad too?

Subject: Re: December 19-20 at pickett Mon Dec 14, 2009 6:50 am

yeah it would be my dad also coming or else i would not be going i dont even have my learners permit yet. lol!

but if you cant fit us in that isnt a problem

Depending on the weather, if everyone was camping at the same spot I wouldn't care to camp and ride both days.
