Well we're gonna be paying for the permits, so we gotta save a some $$ by camping at the park.  Anyone know if they allow camp fires in the campground, any general rules?

Nah I'm talking about that, and yes there are rules, like wearing a helmet and not riding double.  I'm saying for camping, you can make a fire right?  And are there hours for when you can ride, or can ride all night if you want?

That works for me, we stop riding before the sun goes down anyways, to get the fire going and everything.  You know, camping has it's downsides, but I kinda like it better in some ways too.

If I go to set up my bike. I will be on a blue YFZ with yellow gear in the Day area.  If any of you guys want to go around the FTR track with me, that would be awesome so we could make it wide enough for quads.

Ill be driving my grey lightning up there. If I go, it will be wednesday.

Do the hotels get full this time of year?  My dad is thinking of possibly getting a room with some points or something that he has, should I tell him to hurry it up if he's going to?  I wanna camp though, so maybe not.... But on the other hand, I want my bisquits with sausage gravy!

Alright, we're staying at the Hampton Tuesday and Wednesday nights.  We're leaving Tuesday morning around 5am, I'd like to leave earlier though, like 3am.  In any case we should be there by 10am or earlier on Tuesday.  I'm picking up a pair of boots in Sebring though, some Fox Forma Pro's, much better than the falling apart Elememts I have now.
We might possibly leave on Monday though and camp that night, depending on how busy my dad is that day and what we decide.

Alright, so we might get there a little earlier.  I'm trying to get this thing finished with the engine on the RM to make it stop fouling plugs, I'm preety sure it's leaking tranny oil into the engine, so hopefully I'll have that done in time.  If not, I'll probably go through 20 plugs.  :P
So Dustin, what are you doing with the cast so far, cutting it, or riding with it?
