What you need

Tow points front and rear are also highly recommended.
You may also want to bring extra water to wash things off, because it can be either extra muddy or dusty.

I have nothin going on any of those dates so they are all good for me! The fools run lasst year at Uwharrie was a blast! It really doesnt matter to me as to where we do it, but anything more than a four hour drive for me i would need to know well in advance so I can put in for leave.

Welcome OHV your just right down the road from Goldsboro, any good places to mess around down there by the beach?

Mike

oh yea...sutton lake...carolina beach...fort fisher...all are nice "legal" places to wheel...sutton is free...so what is this thing...fools run? i will be getting a custom lift done in april...anytime after that or before?

uvalax236 · **Posted:** Sun Feb 17, 2008 2:06 am

OHV, can you post up some info on those places? Im interested in some new trails to try out. Do you know them well enough to guild everyone through the trails? How tough are they?

kolesy · **Posted:** Sun Feb 17, 2008 2:28 am

Likewise to what Richard said! I wouldnt mind takin an hour drive down there to check out some new stuff.

can't wait to see some other liberty's

uvalax236 · **Posted:** Sun Feb 17, 2008 3:29 pm

So this area is mostly just a few hills and some pits to rampage through. Is there enough there for a good full day of trail riding or just sitting around a pit?

ohv_kj · **Posted:** Sun Feb 17, 2008 5:06 pm

if your taking about sutton...a good part of the day can be used...there are trails all over the area that have hills and bowls...have to remeber it is close to the coast so rocks, none, and heavly wooded areas are not so much...the trails are all easy w/ hill climbs through out...if i were you, being in va, i would do a trip that started in the OBX and went south to oakacroke(sp)... fiery to ceder island ...drive to wilmington and the beaches through there...it's about 50% road and 50% off road...i just want to meet up w/ some other liberty's to see the differences and to go to new places!!!

Its an option. Dean? Daniel? Opinions?

Redwolf698 · **Posted:** Mon Feb 18, 2008 10:27 pm

I think Dean has divorced himself from the group. He's got other irons in the fire.

I don't know about the Fools run for me this year, I am eaten up with credit cards...

uvalax236 · **Posted:** Tue Feb 19, 2008 2:48 am

Hmm. I'll give him a few more days to chime in before i call and pester him. Daniel, you got a month of planning, I got faith you can crunch the numbers and make it work!

Is there an echo in here?

Renegade24 · **Posted:** Wed Feb 20, 2008 4:20 pm

i don't think i'll be doing any real wheeling untill summer... my schedule is packed...

uvalax236 · **Posted:** Wed Feb 20, 2008 5:47 pm

Oh no! Another lousy turnout event?

dog_party · **Posted:** Wed Feb 20, 2008 6:00 pm

I'm most likely in.

Dates:

March 28-30 (Will be flying back into town late on Friday, so it would be a short one for me)
April 4-6 (Can't do anything)
April 11-13 (Works better than the other options)

An OBX trip is always fun. But I'm dying to see some of the other parks too.

ohv_kj · **Posted:** Wed Feb 20, 2008 6:00 pm

how do you get ahold of every one? sould do that get a number of ppl willing to go and then set a date!how many members are there...?

ohv_kj · **Posted:** Wed Feb 20, 2008 6:04 pm
