    No, I don't believe it is...but I sure do wish it was...

    If I ever figure out how this rummor started that I suck at riding off-road someone is going to get Luca's size whatever bear poop covered slipper up their ass...buckles and all and I think I will leave it there so they can't ride as well so I have a better chance!

    How many days now?

    Gotta go back to Oregon thru next week-end.

    I'll prolly breu up another "secret" week-day ride (hold the rain) for sometime soon.

    I'm gonna be holed-up on Baker Lake in late July so maybe I can get a week-end contingent to ride up the forest roads in that area while I'm there vacationing with my fam.

    Enjoy, Toothy

    Chad, Tony- Who can give us a recap of what is the plan for this weekend. Some stuff came up that may have opened up the whole weekend :thumb

    Is this credit card camping or pitching tents with campfire, flames, dirt, bugs...... where are the troops staying what hotel, I need to see if it's to late to get a room or is it campsite stuff? :ear

    First Stosh read your pm......

    Okay this is the thought that I had and anyone that is interested is welcome to come along. Meet up Saturday in the am and run down 410 to Rainier. Head around Rainier to Mt St Helens and then back to meet up with those dirty thumper boys, kick there arse, ops, set up camp and eat all there food and drink all there beer. Wake Sunday and ride the GS trails. Eat more of the thumper guys food and drink more of there beer and head home. We can refine the plans a little more as we start roll call. :evil

    So ... meeting at Whistlin Jack's at 10...where are we putting our trucks? We thinking about just driving to the campground and then leaving from there or did you find an exclusive trail riding park and ride?

    I would think we would need a campground, the forest service guys really frown on just thowing out the tent and seting up camp any place you can find these days.

    For you guys that are driving and trailering the bikes is there a meeting spot that us riders could drop off a cooler with food, beer, ice or is there a store up there that we can get some grubb to eat. I have no problem carrying clothes, tent, sleeping bag and maybe even a camp stove but the cooler and bottles of drinking water will be the one that just kills me.

    Hey is this shindig open to any Butthead who wants come? If so I can make it saturday. I've ridden on most of those trails over there but it's been a few years ago. Theres a good forest service road to the top of Ravens Roost. Theres gas food booze and cabins at Whistlin Jacks. But the are probably full. About 5 miles east of Whistlin Jacks is squaw rock campground and cabins. It has gas and food. When we go we always stay by crow creek campground.If every place is full theres a good spot about 300 yards from the entrance to crow creek. It's big enough to hold hundreds of campers but only about 10 spots have tables. It depends whats going on that weekend it could be full or empty. Also the area is heavily patrolled by sheriffs on dirt bikes. They sometimes come into your campsite and check your bike for current tabs. If your parked in your site they can't give you a ticket. It's not uncommon to go around a corner on a forest service road and see the sheriffs with 10 or 15 dirt bikes pulled over for riding on the road. I'm just gonna ride on the forest roads because my GS has 3 wheels. Butthead
