if say up to 20 vehicles are down for the ride i'd recomend starting near idamans cabin and riding to blue sink for a swim (im guessing around 25 miles 1-way) and return. we could also take in that big pit on 588 as well. if more than 20 vehicles are down then maybe we should start at rodman and ride to eurika dam (around 30 miles 1-way) and back. rodman can handle more trucks and trailers than anywhere but around scrub. i'll go with the flow, i just want to ride.

once we decide where we will start we'll go from there. we always like to ride new trails. thanks for the offer. i'd personally like some smooth trails with high banked turns on some open long leaf pine stands.  jeff |

How about start out of Eurika Damm aera?
Jim,
thats one option. we'll have to see how many are down for the ride. theres not alot of parking. the main road in has soft soulders. there is a flat area on the south side of the road that should handle a few trucks. jeff jeff |

It would be nice to ride that first weekend of August or the end of July since school will be starting on the tenth of August.
Just might be alot easier for folks that have kids to go before the hectic school schedule gets cranked up. I know it would be better for me.
good point. you just might have picked the day. jw, as far as the pace goes it depends on how many show up. small groups tend to ride faster than large groups. my quad is a very slow ute, but on good trails i hold the throttle down as far as i can. we wait up for riders when the trail splits or turns off in another direction. it would be a good thing if the slower riders could ride atleast 20mph on the good trails. much slower than that will hold up the pack. jeff |

I had a great time on the last one. I'm interrested in this one as long as it doesn't interfere w/ a conference I've got at the end of August. Hopefully my schedule will fit in w/ this.

I liked that trail that ran from Eureka south, I beleive, through the woods along side of that river. There were some houses on the left, up on the hill, and a couple of boaters on the right. That trail has alot of nice shade and is a little technical. Do you know what I am talking about. That would be a good trail to include in the ride. Nice scenary too!

I'd be down if I'm not very broke by then,,,,buying a house and all might be a bit of a drain on the wallet.
I still wanna see eureka pits.

its one of my favorites. the 1st place where the people where camping was called piney island landing we swim there sometimes, the place with the houses up on the bluff is called sunday bluff. that trail makes you feel like your deep in the forest, and you are. i havent rode through there since before the hurricanes last year. there sure where lots of trees down across the trail. jeff |

lets see. ride or conference? ?.............RIDE! I'd be more than happy to ride but if I go I lose my deposit on my hotel. In addition I won't get my CE credits and I'll lose my license to practice. So if you are willing to pay for my cost of living and student loans in excess of a NICE home mortgage then I'm all in! |

I'm in as long as it doesnt fall on a race weekend (3rd Sat of the month). My place is always available for a fuel stop if it is near the proposed route.

matt, since your place is only a few miles from eurika dam you may know this. how many trucks could you park at eurika? as many times as ive rode through there i never really paid much attention to it. im thinking of starting this ride from there. jeff |

it seems that most people are availible in the first part of august. so lets nail it down to the 6th. now as far as the starting point. it would be nice to start at eurika dam but we need some feedback on the parking situation.
