Jay-I'm up for a trip regardless as long as you still want to go. Nocona might be open, and there is that other place. Any safe track is good for me. If you want to just to hang out that's cool too. I just don't want to make the drive alone. I figure we head down Friday, ride saturday, watch some SX saturday night then head home sunday morning. Thoughts?

It's not looking too good for me at the moment. I am sick like a lab rat. I haven't even had a cold in two years and this is kicking my arse... :(

If you can make the trip all the way to Freestone, they are racing the national track this weekend.

Hell if I know! This thread is much like having a conversation with an ADD child... It's all over the place!
Best guess at this point is that if Lou makes it, it will most likely be RV. If he doesn't.... it's all in the air. My youngest just got a bike with a clutch for Christmas so if RV plans fail... I'll still go to RV or possibly Marshal Creek. It's got a tame track and some trails so it would be good for him working out the mechanics of a clutch. Probably wouldn't be a bad choice for me since I haven't really ridden since July. :ohmy:

I'm not going to make it guys. Sorry. I feel like crap. Literally and figuratively. I just came off a road trip to South Dakota and back with this cold or flu and it was brutal. Chicken soup and football for me this weekend.

No idea... wasn't there. If they got in head on collisions with kwads it could be. LOL
Supposedly... they have directional signs for the trails now.
I talked myself into RV. I'll be there Saturday when it opens. I didn't get to ride for 5 months last year and jumped right back in without any problem. Should be better now given that I get plenty of seat time on a street bike... just will wonder where the power is after jumping from a 1200 down to a 250F. :whoa:

a little more info on nocona. i was talking to a guy from nocona on a streetbike forum and he said this:
In case you did not know,Leroy Lundy,the owner of the track passed away a few weeks ago. I haven't been over there since. I did talk to his son,Jeff,around town afterwards but it was pretty much expressing condolances. Leroy was good people and will be missed by his family and alot of riders. Nocona MX does have the best sandy loam in Texas. I helped Jeff build the start gate and launch pad back in the day. It all started out as a practice track for our two boys.....
