gonna have to be two trails or groups i'm thinkin, so what is the consensus may 5 or may12

i was looking at the calander and 2 weekends in a row may not work may 5 and the may 21 have a little space between. may be better. hmm

i was thinkin dave may be right this is getting a little large, will see what happens this time. but we seem to always be waiting on cowastuki's and popo's why?

We can have 4 or 5 or 6 or ??? groups head out....nothing saying everybody has to ride together....cause that does end in one big cluster fwck. The May 5 weekend seems to work the best out there because there's still enough frost to hold a guy up. One week makes a big difference...we learned that a few times with our poker rally. Also, it gives people a 2 week window before May Long to fix the sh!t they broke.

so tentativly may 5 weekend, pm your prefered dates. any suggestions on location, needs to be cell phone friendly,

was informed that mdeicine lake is a bit of gravel driving and has lots of rcmp visits.


i'm also thinking we have 2 months maybe this should be dscussed on the suds buds site. or we may have to charge admission.

Medicine lake isnt too bad larry, the gravel road is 5 km , from hwy 11, and the rcmp only check and tag your bike once , most wont be much for visits that weekend, they were out last may long weekend and all they asked us for was insurance, then they gave us a tag on our rack so they would be bothering us anymore for the weekend, no big deal:beer:

Seeing how I don't own a wood hauler anymore, just wondering how my old hunk O junk sport quad would do on some of these trails?

The gravel pit at Med lake is like no more then 8 km off hwy 11, been there several times, its a 5 min drive on gravel, dont know why you say no good till after may long, we were there last may long and it was virtually dry as a popcorn fart, and there was a chitload more snow last year then this year.

The gravel pit is 12km east of hwy 22. It doesn't matter where you are coming from, that's the quickest and smoothest route.

If you drop the purse, and give it a spankin...you'll be just fine. After may long would be a whole different story.

May 5 could be dangerous...that's my b-day...I always tend to get a little piled up on this weekend. Except for last year, we've been out there for that weekend for 15 years....never seen the rc's once, but they're out in full force May Long.
