Anyone up for a ride at Lost Trails?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

This month or next month sometime. I want to get out and ride with some of the old gang but RAC is too far (and $$$) for one ride.

I am in semi good shape now and have only been riding every 2-3 weeks so I'm not looking at a real aggressive ride. Just a fun ride with friends.

Posted by: 53fireman---------------------

I'd be in for that

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

I would like to come up and check it out.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Cool. Let's see who else chimes in. I'm sure Dan will see this eventually.

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

I'm in. How about just meeting at the Hancock dualsport August 8. I plan on riding that anyway. http://www.bearcreeksportsmen.com/

Posted by: LEllis7motox---------------------

How much does it cost to ride there?

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

check their website but I think it's 45.00 per day and includes some kind of lunch from what I remember

Posted by: LEllis7motox---------------------

I meant lost trails

I couldn't find a website for it.

I'm tied up that weekend and my bikes not street legal anyway. They have some nice trails there though. We should meet there for their Spring Good Kuggamugga ride next April. I missed it this year but it's a fun time.

Lost trails costs $35 to ride.

I've been looking at the calendar and was thinking the weekend of the 22nd or 29th. Is a Saturday or Sunday better for you guys?

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

How do you do it Dave, I gave up trying to get people together because when i mentioned lost trails everyone started bashing it

I am recovering from a fractured sternum from a ride earlier this year, but i do hope to get back on the bike in another few weeks, and hopefully i can make this ride, but will most likely be taking it easy if i do. The 22nd would be better for me, I plan on going to Southwick on the 29th.

When we set a date and see how many are interested, we shoyuld be able to get a group discount also.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Good Dan. What the hell with the broken sternum? Did you break ribs too? I haven't seen you here for a while and was going to give you a call if you didn't see this post.

I like the 22nd better too. Are you going to Unadilla this year?

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

Not sure about unadilla, I might make it, but would like to get on the bike before this ride, and the weekend of Unadilla may be my first weekend back riding.

And surprisingly, no, I didnt break any ribs to go along with it.

Posted by: 53fireman---------------------

the 29th would be the only day I could swing with work... the 22nd weekend is definitely out for me

Posted by: flyingfuzzball---------------------

I would love to go riding. havent really made it out much this season. do you still need insurance to ride lost trails?

Do you work the whole weekend? is Sunday open?

Posted by: 53fireman---------------------

I'm working nights, so I could try to swing either day. Get it setup and post the date on here and I'll definitely try to make it, might be able to get a couple others too.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

They are only open until 5 so that would be great if you could make it.

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

I am open both weekends (22 and 29) I can't make the Hancock ride the 8th but could do the 9th

Where is PK?????????

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

I can do this! JasonJ, let's hook up for the ride up there!

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Let's make it for the 22nd. Should be a good time

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

I'll let you know if it changes. Steve has a wedding to go to on the 9th so if he rides it will be the 8th but if he bags it I can switch to the 9th and will check with everyone else.

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

So it's the 22nd then?

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Yep, the 22nd.

They open at 9 so why don't we plan on hitting the trails at 9:45.

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

Hey Dave I'll be riding Sat if you can make it. Steve as it turns out won't be joining us but the other guys can't do Sun so Saturday it is. Hope you can make it.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

I can't make it this weekend. I'm cutting out of work early tomorrow and riding out behind my house. There are a bunch of trails that I need to open up. Will you be at Lost Trails on the 22nd?

I am going to try and make it, that's my sister's B'day and I don't know yet what she has in mind but i would like to try it and see some old faces. Hope you didn't take that literally, Dave.

Did anyone read that Dirtrider article about older riders?

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Yeah I read Jimmy's editorial and could really relate. I'm in no way that fastest guy out there but I get a kick out of humbling some young buck that under estimates me--even if it's for a few minutes before I'm exhausted. I even picked up a few ideas on various forms of treachery from that editorial

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

We are talking the 22nd of August right?

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Yes, the 22nd of August, 15 days from now.

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

As of now....I am in!

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Great! Let's get a headcount. Let me know if you are bringing anyone:
Me
Dan
Trigger
Jason
53fireman
flyingfuzzball

LEllis7motox??
Gordon??

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

I sent Nathan an email, but havent heard back from him yet. I'll give him a call if i don't see this weekend.

Any word from treejumper? or is he too busy being a daddy to come out and play?

Posted by: 53fireman---------------------

I'm out, going to MD that weekend

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

Is this a 2 day or just one day ride?

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Just one day on the 22nd.

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

Hey Dave and Dan
I'm going to try and make it and most likely will be bringing a couple fo buddies along if it happens. Still won't know for sure until that week as its my Sister' B'day and we usually have a big party at my place for her but she hasn't let me know just yet. I would say If I show I'll be with at least 4 maybe 5 others.

How are we going to have story time when the old farts need to take a break on the trails without you there?

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Aw shucks, no woodchuck puppet stories!!

Gordon, I hope you can make it bud!

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

Oh that sucks, I never got to here that wood chuck story. If its just 1 day then Trigger we can bike pool!

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

sounds like a plan will call you over the weekend

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

I hope you plan on driving jason, I dont think 2 people can fit in that roller skate trigger drives, unless he has gotten a new bike hauler since we saw him last

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Dan, Is Nate coming?

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

I'm on my way out to Lost Trails right now, if I dont see Nate and his wife there, I will call him tomorrow to find out. This is my first ride since I got hurt, so I will also let you know how slow I will be riding next weekend

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

Didnt see Nate this weekend, I did call and leave him a message though. Haven't heard back from him yet.
Hopefully there will be enough people to get $5 off per person(8 people and we get the discount) The whole group will need to check in at the same time though.
We will also be able to park in the upper parking lot (overflow parking) so we will all be parked together.

I think he said he had a 15 passenger van! Or was it a Hummer Limo, same difference I suppose, except vans are cooler.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Crap. I may have to back out for this weekend. I may have to help my parents with some stuff this weekend. I'm bummed. I'll let you know more as the week goes on.

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

We could probably move the ride back a week

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Back or ahead? Weren't you going to Southwick?

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

I am still in for this weekend if its a go!

If we change the week of this ride, I will go to Budds Creek this weekend instead of Southwick next week. so either week is fine with me.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

I wouldn't hold it up for me. Go ahead and do it this week and if I can make it then fine, otherwise we'll get together at a later time.

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

It sounds more like your wife has taken away your riding privileges and you aren't sure when you will get the bike back

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Now you're just spreading rumors...you trouble maker!!!

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

They aren't rumors, just admit it.

I just figured if it were moved a week, maybe we could get more people, I know there are people who said they couldnt make the 22, but I dont know if we would lose others if it changed either. But I will be there, whichever weekend it is.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

I should know more tomorrow

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

Looks like it's a go for me this weekend. I should be there with at least 2 others. Dan what time are we meeting since you said we all have to sign in together.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

I'm out for this weekend. You guys have fun and I will definitely hook up with you latter...maybe the first weekend in Sept.

Don't cancel because of me

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Here's the latest headcount for those of you that are still going. Not enough fo the $5 discount so you don't all have to sign in together. I am going to try and make it there on 9/5 if anyone is interested.

Dan
Trigger
Jason
flyingfuzzball ...are you still coming?
Gordon +2

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

The answer is simple, just do both weeks!

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

I am there every week, so doesnt matter to me, I was just seeing if we could get 1 big turnout instead of a couple smaller turnouts.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Yeah, I feel terrible about having t back out. I was even going to be bringing someone with me.

I still plan on being there on the 5th.

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

So are we getting together and if so what time is ready to ride?

Posted by: flyingfuzzball---------------------

i dont think i am going to be able to make it. just came back in from looking over the bikes and my dad's wont start. Gonna mess with it tomorrow see whats up im hoping its something simple like a dead battery but im not sure. hopefully we will make it but im not sure. And we were gonna go out both saturday and sunday!

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

I will be there Saturday as always, so whoever wants to come, I will be there by 9:30. They open at 9, but I need to go to bank Saturday mornings, and the bank opens at 8:30. If I am able to make it to the bank friday night before they close, then I will be there at 9.

Posted by: CRFGuy---------------------

Weather isn't looking good enough for me to even bring the bikes home tonight so I'm going to bag it. You guys have fun if you go and I hope to catch up another time.

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

Still watching the weather. Ill wait until 10 PM to decide, unless anyone else is up for some warm but wet riding. Hey, why not?

Posted by: Trigger1911---------------------

Sorry guys but I am out. My job got backed up by 2 hours and that would only give me 3-4 hours to ride.

Posted by: scooter1130---------------------

Unless Flyingfuzzball got his dads bike running, it looks like it would only be me and you Jason.

Weather doesnt look too promising, so unless Jason or somebody else says they will definitely be there, I will probably sit this weekend out.

I am there almost every weekend, so any time any of you guys want to ride, just let me know and I'll be sure to look for you, and set up a fun ride for the day.

I will be there on the 5th Dave, hopefully the weather will be better.

Posted by: JasonJ---------------------

Well, bad news good news. Bad news is it looks like this ride is toast. Good news is local Wal marts will have no shortage of Bag Boys. Jason thinks the weather is going to be great for riding Sat. See you guys some other time.

Posted by: RM_guy---------------------

Let's try this again on the 5th...
