It dependson the weekend, probably will be on Thanksgiving weekend. I was there one weekend when they had 1000 people in one day but when you get on the trails its not too bad becuase they are all one way so you rarely run into people. I would say its well worth it.

There have been alot of  people before but like he said it thins out in the trails. There is so much area to ride that its not a problem and everytime ive been there, if someone saw me moving faster than them, then they usually moved out of my way, no problems. Ive been there three times before this and have had an awesome time everytime I went. Great for everyone all ages

I just bought a 39' toy hauler and as I mentioned earlier I will be there with a large group.  I spoke with Durhamtown the other day and they said that Thanksgiving weekend will be extremely busy.  I will also be in the pasture, stop by and say hi.

We can't wait until we go. The thought of A week of nothing but fun. The girls  i work with can't beleave that I am getting worked up about getting dirty they just don't understand that dirty is fun. And to drive 6 hours to go do it. My son is counting the days too and he is 7 years old. I really have to thank our friends that we met at big scrub for turning us to DP.

 :) I'm 48 years old and I can't believe I'm getting all worked up about going to Durhamtown. I feel like a kid just before Christmas. I got an email from them this week and they said the Freestyle riding team would be there to put on a show Thanksgiving weekend. That will be cool to watch. There seems to be so many people rom Florida going next weekend. I wish there was some way we could all meet up. I would hate to walk around to everybody there and ask,  where are you from?  We have a husband and wife couple going with us from Manderin who have never been before. I hope we haven't hyped it up to much for them. They will be riding lime green KFX 700's and I ride a Polaris 700. My wife will be on her Polaris 330 Trailboss. It's yellow and black, she calls it the Bumblebee. My son will be on a 350 rancher. If you see us say Hi.

I think this is our 4th Thanksgiving at Durhamtown.  You can't hype it up too much.  We are in a group of 20 plus (all from Central Florida Brandon/Tampa area)  My husband just got a new 07 Raptor 700R Special Edition and he's like a kid going to DisneyWorld (Are we there yet?)  We'll be staying in RV's if you want to say HI!  We're in an Enduramax Toy Hauler with a black enclosed trailer.  My husband will be "attached" to a black/orange carbon fiber Raptor (It is pretty)  I ride a green Suzuki Venson and we'll also have a blue Rhino.  We are a large group, can't miss us.  Looking forward to meeting new riders.  Are we there yet?
