Definitely had a great time. Enjoyed putting faces to names. I didnt get to introduce myself to everyone, but I will be back. Anyone wondering whether they should go can stop wondering, it is worth it. These guys have really done some work & dont let the size of the place fool you. We rode all day & still didnt do all the trails. My legs are killing me.
My son didnt want to leave. He worked extra hard all week in school to earn a trip to this event & now he has to do it until the January event since we are going to Tennessee over Christmas break.

Paul S & Dreth are some great guys. I can say they made me feel like we have been friends for years.
Mrs Paul S was very nice too when we arrived.
Also met 450rcrazy, very nice guy, cant wait to see the pics. My son is still wondering about the race standings, he wants to show his friends at school.

I only wish I could have taken QT up on some of those jello shots, and stayed for dinner... maybe next time.

For anyone wondering about the trip time, from I-4 to the plex with cruise set at 70mph it took just under 3.5hrs & was 220miles. That included 2 rest area pit stops & one stop to fill up the gas can.

OMG!  Another incredible weekend!  I laughed so much my stomach hurts!  Great group of ppl.  Can't wait to get the list of one liners from the weekend.  Papparazzi needs to post some of those great pics he got!  There's one in particular that had me almost pee my pants every time he showed it.

Thanks Paul, Matt, and Shawn(aka #2)!  Y'all have a top notch operation going on!  So much changes every time I go.  Hot showers today were excellent!  KB, Mav, T2, Buster thanks for loaning me a bike when mine went down.  Buster and crew thanks for working on the bike!  Rollin Thunder crew thanks for getting T2 back to the trailer.  Crazy crew thanks for driving his rig home.  Ida thanks for driving T3 to the hospital to be w/ his dad.  Thanks to everyone who helped put on an awesome Thanksgiving dinner!  That turkey was off the hook!  Mike, I'm glad your daughter had a great bday.  Ida I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to play the Wii w/ ya but thanks for bringing it out.  Mav, thanks for sharing the ride w/ me.

Hope to see everyone and then some in January!  Great times, great memories, great friends, and meeting new ones.  I met so many new ppl this weekend I'm sorry if I forgot to thank you.  Can't wait to see all the pics.  It was such a big event we had to do a panoramic pic to get everyone in the shot.

The kids as usual were great!  They were a pleasure to have around.  Poor kids were starving come dinner time and had to wait 30+ minutes for dinner.  They were so well behaved about it all!  They did a great job on the mx track.  It was fun watching y'all!

Sorry I didn't have enough jello shots for late Saturday night.  I'll have to work on that for next time.

Ditto's to all the above great comments.  Paul, Dreth and gang thanks for not only giving us adults a great place to ride but speaking as a Dad of 9, what you guys do for the kids is completely awesome.   When we ask the kids if they want to go riding, the first comment is always, "Are we going to the Motoplex?"       Our camera took a dump on Saturday, so hoping someone has some pics of the kids MX and Obstacle Course.   Thanks again from the LeBlancs!!!

Thanks everyone who showed Yall are great Thanks Paul for putting on a great show  and I am worn out!!

Post by: Shawn on December 04, 2007, 03:34:09 PM
Thanks guys, I really appreciate the comments.

I know that while we all have a blast, many of you come out primarily to support the plex and I am grateful for that support.

Getting back to having a blast, didn't we just have the best time. This weekend was awesome, other that the injury to Tony (get better soon buddy), the weekend was too cool.

Parents, you really need to bring the little ones, they will have an awesome time here. 

Anyhow, thanks to the cooks....Rick, Matt, Charlie, Fl Cat. Gator John, KB, QT, Bryan and anyone else who contributed to the food. It was all tasty and well received.

Glad your daughter had a nice birthday Mike. 

Thanks to our locals 

FYI, we had a group from Gulfport Mississippi, who came from Trailoverhale's post on Highlifter.com. Thanks for getting the word out. If you guys don't mind, please help us beat the drum, if you had a good time, then please mention this weekend (and the upcoming seafood ride on Jan 12th) on some of the other sites, atvfl, highlifter etc., it would really help.

Thanks again guys.

This was simply one more awesome weekend at the Plex!!  Good times, good friends!  It just keeps getting better and better!

Post by: Shawn on December 04, 2007, 03:35:24 PM
I must agree! Another STELLAR weekend at the Motoplex!     I have been to every group event since the grand opening and I can not believe how much work Paul and his crew put into this palce. There is always something new and it just gets better and better! I bet it costs a small fortune just to update the maps of the place with all the additions and things he adds and changes around. Paul and crew I only have two words for you all....


YOU ROCK!!!!!!!

Absolutly great time, you guys really work hard to give us a good time. It is greatly apreciated. Is there an official head count for the weekend. It was definitly more than the October ride.


Title: Re: Can you believe this.
Post by: Shawn on December 04, 2007, 03:36:48 PM
It just seems each event weekend gets more and more people, and the good times just increase more and more with each new person that makes it there. It was our pleasure to fry up the turkeys for everyone and we hope everyone enjoyed the food. I've said it before and I'll say it again it's all about the great people that show up to the plex each time that make it so awesome, it just seems next to impossible to have a bad time, you break down there are  people you don't even know ready to lend a hand, you get stuck there are people you don't even know ready to lend a hand, you break down on a trail there's a line of people ready to tow ya back to camp. Everybody is just great that goes there and it just keeps getting better and better each and every time.
