DURHAMTOWN NEWS

 

 DP has been hot and dusty for several weeks

we have just enjoyed 2 days of rain showers in the afternoons  with this moisture we are able to get on the track with machinery and work 

 

we worked the Big track today  the Swamp & MX-4 tomorrow   then on to MX-5&6

 

we are now working the Peewee track every Friday and Monday  we now have water available all over with fire hydrants

 

this will help with the kids MX races  ( start again in sept)  see Racing on the forums for schedule

 

all of the new woods trails and single track is holding up  really well with the dry weather 

 

BMX TRACKS.......

 

we have built 2 new BMX (bicycle) tracks behind the lodge in the past 2 weeks  it looks really cool and fun to ride   we have one that is good for beginners and a more advanced one for older kids

so far it has been a big hit   

we now have BMX bikes for rent  Small and Medium sizes with helmets  $15/half day  $$25 full day    to rent

ride fees are free with riding bands  or $10/day for BMX only

it has table tops- wooden berms-see saws- ramp to ramp- berm to ramp- 8ft high take offs and alot more

 

we have cemented the faces of all the jumps so they stay  really crisp  and they hold up in the rain

 

 

DO NOT FORGET TO BRING BICYCLES when you come

we are adding lights to it this week

 

PROSHOP

we are having some big sales on PROSHOP items   we have some Thor & Fox gear on sale 40% off retail   

All of the 2007 line up of gear will be ordered over the next 2 weeks  Tucker Rocky has invited us down to Orlando next week to see all of the new 2007 Answer/MSR new products  we will be stocking a lot of new LADIES GEAR  cool pink and purple colors

 

we are invited to the Parts Unlimited Home office /headquarters  #1 warehouse in August to see a lot of new products and meet with the manufacturers on our future orders

 

they  will process any order and have it on a UPS truck  with in 45 minutes of placing the order  on the way to us     now that is service at its best    Sherre and I  have been there and seen it….    Awesome   #1 automated warehouse in America

 

we can also ship 1000's of items direct to your door  at our discounts   just email  mikemc@durhamtown.com  or call 706-486-4864

 

WILDLIFE

we have added some really nice wide trails along the creek and river behind the lodge and will pass by many food plots and feeders   we are offering these as golf cart trails they make a nice scenic ride after dinner   so if you have a side by side Rhino- Ranger-Mule- Golf cart ask about the scenic ride   we will not allow any bikes or atvs on the trail

 

we are enhancing the wildlife habitat behind the lodge like never before for viewing

this trail will also be open for bicycles at any time    approx 3 miles

 

FISHING

 

We have drained the catfish pond behind the lodge we are removing all of the silt from 4 yrs of MX riding this is why the pond never cleared up (catfish kept it stirred up)        we have added 2 silt ponds to correct the problem        restocking with BASS and BREAM  for family fishing   then enhancing the camp sites for future use

We also are draining the kiddie pond behind the shooting range, 35 yrs of silt has reduced the size by 50%  we will dredge  and widen it also over the next month  restock with Bass and Bream for kids fishing

 

We have appreciated the “Breather” over the past month it allowed us to catch up on some projects   we added a new parking lot next to the peewee track that is shaded

 

Bathrooms will be added this fall we are getting permits for them and soil test done

 

 NEW Go Carts/sand buggies  are being added in a few weeks  we have been testing for a new company  called CROSSFIRE  for 3 months  they are DP APPROVED for jumping and durability in MUD  with a reverse   they are in production over seas and will be delivered in  JULY/August  DP will be renting and selling them at discounts     we are also testing a new brand of ATVs   (3 months also)  it will go into production this fall  with all of the good features from many brands combined   

 

DP will continue to use KYMCO in our fleet as well

 

We have added another mechanic to our shop and have a better turn around time for any repairs you may need   our rates are $50/hr for ACTUAL shop time

 

KTM PARTS

 

DP will be adding KTM parts to our popshop inventories  we have so many of them breaking down while riding here and it is almost impossible to find parts in GA in stock

We are working with a KTM dealer to have parts on hand and we will also begin to carry many more HARD PARTS for all brands of bikes and ATVS   open 7 days a week  8am-10 pm    if you need them and we have them  call ahead we will open to get them

 

Riding has slowed down with the summer heat but we are over 35% higher in growth from last year DP want to thank each of you for supporting us and all of the riding parks in Ga    with all of the new parks coming online Ga will soon be the #1 destination on the East coast for offroad riding and soon will be recognized how much we contribute to the state’s income     with more riding areas comes more popularity for the sport which benefits everyone in the industry

 

RACING

DP harescrambles and kids MX racing starts back again in September

12 HOUR race    Sept 30    Saturday daylight till dark

See the “RACING” on the DP forums

 

HUNTING

Hunting should be at its best this fall   we are spending more on hunting the ever before  more food plots  larger food plots  over 25 new 2-4 man stands  (great for families)  3 scouts for assisting you in locating  your Buck

Memberships available (see HUNTING on DP forum)

 

With a full hunting /fishing /riding membership $1500 you have 1st choice at year round RV sites

 

 Thanks for your support as we continue to strive to make DP the best off road family facility
