I would like to go back to Windrock in 2018, Jim Busch along with a few others said that Golden Mountain is a pretty good place to Wheel, would like to possibly check that out also..... I will have more time available to take off to wheel in 2018

93 Krawler · 11-05-2017, 06:18 PM

I'd like to do Windrock, but no point in taking the rzr to GM. Remember, I'm down to just the rzr this year. I'd do the Badlands for a couple days. Just blows being done by 7 on Fri-Sat.

DoWorkXJ · 11-05-2017, 06:40 PM

Another vote for Golden Mountain.

Okay, Badlands, Windrock, and Golden Mountain. Cool.

Now the hard part:

When?

WrenchMonkey · 11-09-2017, 02:03 AM

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I think it would serve the club well to have two rides most months. One to Harlan, Windrock or Golden Mountain. Another to Haspin, DTOR or Mud Madness.

We don't want to hold the big dogs back, and we don't want to exclude the newer guys. So we'll all go do our own thing, and meet back up at, say, Rush, a few times a year.

S'all good.

Doubt I will attend the badlands 2018, Mark isn't allowed in with his Rig, Kevin down to his Razor "better be for a short time"......which would leave it down to Jim Busch and I unless someone else commits to go in a big rig, not real crazy about their restrictions on Riding hours there for the travel time and admission fee to the park for the weekend.

Hummm....that will be a tough 1, have to make sure out Rigs are not broke all the time to make the most of it..ha ha, I will look at my Schedule for 2018 and post up what weekends I have available for these trips, I know most people can take off whatever weekends they want, I cannot so I will put out what works for me and see if that works for people for these trips.

It was the Smiths that suggested it, so that gets you four rigs, if that makes the difference. I know a lot of guys have issue with their hours though.

That's a plan man!

93 Krawler · 11-09-2017, 12:47 PM

Since when are buggies not allowed at the Badlands? Mark has been there before...

Hummmm.....Much $$$$ has gone into that little Razor of yours lately...been watching the build post on that.

Smiddy24 · 11-09-2017, 02:17 PM

It's something to bring up in tonight's discussion... But I don't think the smaller rigs hold us up. Yeah it may take some extra tries to get up a hill that the bigger rigs walk up.. But I'm all about socializing with the group. I like having everyone there from the club, no matter how many people show up and what size rig you have.

Smiddy24 · 11-09-2017, 02:19 PM

And what about maybe going down to Alabama? I know my dad went there a few years ago. It looked like a great place to wheel... Although it's a long trip to get there. Idk what the place is called either.

The rules haven't changed. Most of the people that go there aren't legal. Rock buggies are allowed, just like the ultra 4's race there.
Yes, their hours are stupid. If I were to go there again, it would be on a fri-sat, and not in the summer. February or March maybe. Cooking in the sun from 7-10 sucks bad in the summer.
