Man, I got trail rides going on to the west of me, & now to the east of me!:annoyed: If things keep going as well as they are right now, hopefully soon I will be able to get some decent tires, fuel the beast, & have some non stop trail ridin' to do! :icon_thumby:

I wanna get in on these trail rides in a bad way, it's driving me insane! :icon_twisted: Right now I'm limited to a friends property & occasionally the nearest mntn (near Winchester Tn)which is an hour drive for me on backroads, lots of good ridin' up there though! :icon_bounceblue:

@jims89 i rarely ever do anything too stupid out there. its not smart with no cell service. i stick mainly to muddy stuff and trails as opposed to climbing. once in a while ill stop and watch them do rattle rock, but i dont have enough roundies to try that on a quad

I want to seriously bad, things are getting better funds wise, just not quite there yet. :sad:

Heck, I still owe RangerSVT & Railman a meet up at LBL! ;brownbag;
Once the funds pick up a little bit more, ya'll be seein' a lot more of the ole tan beast....& my B2 also. :icon_rofl:

I'm now obligated to a west run & an east run, just be patient..... the times, they are a comin'! :icon_cheers:

i could make it down that way also. its only about 2 hours from me unless your west of nashville.

as far as a run out east i was thinking around dec 12 - 13th. i still have a few more things i need to get ready on my BII, but nothing to major. if someone would rather go somewhere else lets plan it where its within reasonable distance for everyone so we can all enjoy it weather its trucks, atv's or whatever! itll all be fun! i just need to get out for a day or 2!

heck i say we all meet in a cental location. if he's east of nashville than it should be a little under 2 hours from me! that is if B2 is able to ride by then!

so is the date set for the 12 - 13 th of dec? cause im good for that!

I could possibly get a few of my friends to come in their jeeps. (pretty much stock right now) but still fun!

If anybody wanted to come this direction, we could go ride the mntn. I have only rode the one major trail that goes through but there are quite a few that cut off & go different directions, I don't know where the others go, but the "main" trail ends up coming out in North Alabama in the middle of BFE.

On the "main" trail, you basically start out on the top of the mntn & then come to a point where you drop down into the valleys, ride a creek bed for a bit, after a while you come to an open spot & then the trail runs beside the creek. You can see several trails going up the mntn to the left of the creek, but I've never been on 'em.

The "main" trail took me about 4+ hours to ride last time I was there. It's not super challenging but there are some spots....it is worth the ride just to get into the woods. I don't remember anything that would stop a "stocker" , but I'm sure there are spots out there. From my house to the trail head, ridin' the trail, & coming back from N. AL on the black top is a full day

The top of the mntn is a little over an hour S.E. of me so ya'll would have a long ride. Ya'll let me know something, I ain't sure what kinda ridin' ya'll are looking to do or if it would be worth the long drive, but trust me, these ain't gravel roads! It's all considered public land & I was told we can ride there all we want by the park rangers themselves, they don't come over there, they watch the other side of the mntn which is off access.

Looking back, that post shouldn't have been so long, but......oh well!

im fine with the dates. we just need to see if B2 is up for it since I guess he will be our "trail guide" since he knows the place. and also get a meeting place and time.
