The ride times

Friday 10:00am
Saturday 9:00am
Sunday 9:00am



We will leave on time everyday and no one will be sent around the
campground looking for anyone that is not ready and lined up at the
start times listed so be ready & on time as we will not let 1 or 2
people hold up 60 + Side X Sides.If a Side X Side has a mechanical
problem and it can't be fixed in a quick manner the ride will continue
and we will have 2 people to help out the broken SXS and get it to a
place where it can be recovered by a truck & trailer.We will stop
for breaks and once the last SXS comes to a stop we will have 15
minutes for break.Once the 15 minutes is up you will hear an air horn
and we will roll in 2 minutes from the sound of the horn.We will stop
for a 30 minute lunch break on the trail so bring anything you will
need to eat and drink.I would suggest save your drinking for back at
camp in the evening as you will have all evening to do your drinking
and we won't be stopping enough for people to be pissing every 10
minutes...lol If you must drink do it in moderation so you won't be
ruining someone Else's day or experience.Keep in mind we have people
driving a long ways to ride and ride is what we will do.We need
everyone to keep up with the person in front of you and we need each
person to be 100% sure the person riding behind them knows which way to
go at any & every fork or intersection in the trail.We need
everyone to try and avoid from playing and holding up the group by that
I mean don't go off into a big mud hole or start hill climbing on your
own and end up being stuck etc and holding up the group.If we have time
once we get our ride in and we are heading back to camp we can make
time for playing if time allows it.I would like to see us get in a
minimum of 50 miles each day so to do that it takes everyone's help by
doing what I just talked about.I hope no one has a problem with this
plan but I think it's fair and it will ensure that everyone gets in
some good riding.If anyone has any ideas that would be better or any
suggestions let's hear them.


Each day everyone must be lined
up at the Stop sign leaving the campground and ready to roll at 10:00am
on Friday and 9:00am on Sat & Sunday and if you have been to these
rides before you know we roll on time so I would suggest being lined
early in case anyone has some questions and we can space the SXS with
radios
evenly through the pack.The plan will be to be back at camp between
5:00pm & 6:00pm so everyone can get their machines ready
for the next days ride and clean up and eat and then socialize around
the community campfire at site O.F 1 .If you don't have a rear view
mirror I would get one as you must never leave the person behind you at
any intersection or fork on the trail.

---

I
want to make it clear that we can't wait long for any mechanical
problems at all and hold up over 60 machines for 1 SXS that is having
problems as I don't think it's fair or needed to hold up the group for
a problem here and there and that includes my RZR too I'm not exempt I
don't want to hold up the group either if I have a problem I will say
someone else take over and ride on.

Anyone's machine can have a
problem regardless of make so what happens happens but we can't stop
the ride for overheating issues,broken belts,tie rods,ball joints etc
etc.The only thing we can afford to wait on is to plug a tire as
quickly as possible and keep the group rolling to get a good days ride
in and make it worth the members time & money that are driving a
long ways.

I hope everyone understands this as I think it's the only fair way to handle problems.

We
need some volunteers each day like we had at the Fall ride to stay with
the member and help them get their SXS back to camp or if you can get
it going in a timely manner you can catch up at the next break stop so
we need people that have some knowledge of the area.


If
we can count on you to help a fellow member get back to camp due to a
mechanical problem we need to know so we can have a list so we know who
to call on if needed.





Just
some reminders so everyone is on the same page as it looks like we may
have close to 70 Side X Sides for this ride at least 1 or 2 of the days.


Everyone
needs a rear view mirror and everyone needs to do their best to keep
the machine in front of them in sight at all times.

And the
biggest thing is to always watch for the rider directly behind you and
wait for them if needed at every turn we make so they know which way to
go before you take off.If everyone does this the ride will go smoothly
and we won't be wasting time having to send someone back to find some
that don't know which way to go because the person in front of them left
them.I can only be responsible for the person behind me as I can't see
but so far behind me on alot of trails.Please everyone do your part and
think about the person behind you at all times.


This should
not happen but if you come up to a fork in the trail and the person in
front of you has not waited on you then just stop right there and don't
guess which way we went unless the trail is wet and you can see the tire
tracks which way they went.If you get left it's your fault to for not
keeping up with the person in front of you but more of the blame goes to
the person that didn't wait for you.


We will not be riding
fast so there should be no reason that anyone can't keep up with the
machine if front of them just pay attention.We also will not be riding a
snails pace either it will be a moderate pace that will be safe.


If
you have friends or family coming and driving a SXS and don't get on
here to read this info please go over it with them so they have a clue
what to do.

I know it's Easter weekend and it may keep some from coming but Good Friday is a paid Holiday for some people which gives people a 3 day weekend including myself when I get back to my old job which I should be back there by then.It is also a holiday for the schools also I know it is here.
