Big Rock Labor day weekend?

jwend · 08-31-2011, 11:52 AM

I am all for supporting local places to wheel. But 15 or 20 per person per day is alot.. my position is that it is a hour and forty five mins for me to go to big rock or haspin and about a 1hour and a half more to go to harlan which i pay 35 or what ever for a years pass. If i wheel big rock or haspin with two passangers for 4 days it is 60 or 45 a day thats 240 or 135.. it cost me less to go to harlan.. not saying i wont or dont go to big rock or haspin i love the owners of both and like their parks.. but...... for that much money I am south bound... but i am lucky in the aspect i am closer to harlan and slade than anyone else...

The fee is $5 per adult passenger in a full size rig or SxS. I'm asking age for "adult" will post when I hear.

If you've not heard Big Rock is having a Poker Run on Labor Day:

We’re going to have a Poker Run on Labor Day, and give you a chance to win a little CASH! It will be $5 a hand with CASH payout to the winner(s)! Sign-up begins at 9:30am, the Poker Run begins at 11:00am and ends at 5:00pm. We’ll be sending you to all corners of the park so be ready to ride!

Looks like the weather for the Poker Run will be perfect , with a high in the upper 70′s!

We will be having a Night Ride , for those that are sticking around Saturday night!

The Snackbar will be serving Domino’s Pizza by the Slice, the entire weekend!!!

Has anyone here camped there? The wifey and I are looking to get out and camp and have some fun this weekend. Big rock might be perfect for some easy trails with the 3yr old and puppy.

yes a few of us have. i think he only has like 3 electric sites but its nice and grassy and right above the main parking lot. not big but does have a nice tree line to break up the sun or wind a bit but you should be out riding when shade is needed so no problem. i think it would be a great place for you to try out.
