Well things are not looking good for me this weekend now... I injuried my hand at work and i dont think it will be healed up in time for this weekend. I am really pissed but if this is the worst thing to happen to me this year it will be all good. Ill keep you posted on my injury. If i dont make it you guys be safe out there.

That sucks

Hey, if anyone needs any parts/accessories or even a new RZR or Ranger delivered to them on this ride, let me know (at a discounted price of course!). Go to www.ncpowersports.com or www.performanceeast.com and you can check out all that we have along with our new redesigned website making the customer experience better! (ok, that was a plug). Anyway, me, Travis and several others from the dealerships will be up for the ride and we'd be happy to bring along anything that people want to save on some shipping costs. All you would need to do is pay for the part in advance, we'll order it and bring it with us. We also have lots of 2010 Polaris RZR's and Rangers in as well as ATV's and Can-Am ATV's. Happy to deliver one of those too!

Ride Times:

Fri -10:00am

Sat -9:00am

Sun -9:00am

The plan is to be back at camp between 5:00 & 6:00pm to clean up and
eat and enjoy the fire and to socialize.I'm sure some will want to go
on a night ride on their own so everyone of course can do what they
want.I will be sitting by the Fire so no night riding for me.

Everyone be ready to ride at the time the rides are to begin each day as we are
going to have a large group and you do not want to be the one to hold
up 50 other people that are ready and some have driven a long way and
don't won't to spend their riding time waiting on someone that is not
ready to ride when it's time to ride.We will line up behind my RZR down
in front of the campground office to begin the rides so be on time and
don't make us come looking for you...lol so be considerate of others
and be on time.I would suggest filling up your machine checking your
oil etc the day before each ride so you won't be rushed each morning
that seems to work best.If you ride Friday and are going to ride
Saturday it's just easier to top off your tank as soon as we get back
to camp and have it ready for the next morning while you are still
dirty...lol

It's real important that with this big a group
that each person be responsible for the person behind you and do not
leave them at a fork or intersection.To keep everyone together and to
keep the ride rolling smoothly we need every driver to stop at every
turn and make sure the person behind you sees where you turn if
everyone will do this we will not have any problems and not have to
waste time going back to look for people because they did not know
which way to go.If you don't have a rear view mirror I would suggest
you get one before this ride as it is much easier than turning your
head all day looking back at each turn.If the person behind you has to
stop for any reason then you stop also and if everyone will do this it
will become a chain reaction and no one will be left behind.So again
you are responsible for the person directly behind you that they know
where to turn at all times and are not left behind.I would also suggest
that each driver keep up with the person in front of them and in view
of them at all times this will make it much easier too.On some trails
there are many many forks so don't assume the person behind you knows
where to go because they have no clue just like you don't most of the
time.I would say our average speed will be 10 to 15 mph with this size
group so I think that will be slow enough that everyone can keep up and
not feel rushed and can enjoy some scenery.When we stop for a break and
if you feel we are running to fast or to slow speak up and we can
discuss it as a group and make changes but keep in mind with this many
riders it's hard to please everyone all the time...lol Also most of the
trails we are riding are easy gas line trails with very few difficult
spots IMO but if we come to a spot you are not comfortable with then
stop and ask for help and maybe even we can find you an alternate route
as we are not out to put anyone in danger or tear up their machine.

Dang Kevin sorry to hear that.
Take care of your hand I know you use it a lot.....

Bobby D
Chin and I are in, and riding Friday and Saturday.
Thanks again for putting this ride together.

Got you down Mike

Bobby, change my status to maybe. My son and daughter -in-law are expecting their first baby, and Crystal and I first grandchild. She isn't supposed to be due undr's til 10/16, but she has been having contractions for the last week and the Drs have had to give her meds to stop the contractions. So she may go early during the ride.

I have a cabin reserved, if I don't make it does anyone want it?

Ok Bobby D.
I just read every post in this thread before I asked this.
Whats for lunch on the rides.
Do you folks usually pack snacks and a lunch or are you planning on going to Welch or elsewhere for lunch?

I wouldn't be me if I werent asking about food at least every hour.

I can answer for him :) Bring whatever you think you'll want to eat for lunch if you are in the middle of nowhere and you are really hungry If we get somewhere where they serve food, or anything that closely resembles it, you will have the choice of eating whichever you choose.

always carry some snacks!! you never know what will happen. we do try to make it to a place to eat but it dont always happen. so bring snacks.

I agree. Always good to be prepared & have plenty rather than not have at all.

I thought beer was for lunch!!!

I thought Campbitch was fixing lunch for us!


ok, on a more serious note. Exactly what Bush, Shawn and Chappy said.......and Steve for that matter LOL

Yea always pack you some snacks & drinks for the trails and if we are near a place to eat and some folks want to grab a bite we can do that.

Thanks all!! We will pack plenty and extra gas.

I always bring coldcuts, bread, mayo, cheese and chips.

Don't forget to carry your proof of insurance and have the orange triangle slow moving vehicle sign visible for riding in Welch -we were warned on the Spring ride.

The Welch Police said it's the Law if you ride on the roads in West Va but I have not heard of any enforcement of it but better to be safe than sorry

Last month when we went to Welch, we passed a cop a he didnt turn around. Not all of us had the orange triangle. I think they only mess with you when there is a big group of sxs, like the 50 plus we gonna have!!!

That's gonna be a long train!

But I would spend the 10 bucks and not worry about it.

Don't forget they wanted proof of insurance too.

I was Aux. PD here for 5 yrs., the only rules I konw of for atvs on atv friendly highways are to follow all traffic laws set forth for motor vehicles. Motor vehicle law says that vehicles with a top speed of 25 MPH or less require an orange triangle.
§17F-1-1. Acts prohibited by operator; penalties for violations.
(a) No all-terrain vehicle may be operated in this state:
(1) On any interstate highway except by public safety personnel responding to emergencies;
(2) On any road or highway with a center line or more than two lanes except for the purpose of crossing the road, street or highway, if:
(A) The crossing is made at an angle of approximately ninety degrees to the direction of the highwayand at a place where no obstruction prevents a quick and safe crossing;
(B) The vehicle is brought to a complete stop before crossing the shoulder or main traveled way of the highway;
(C) The operator yields his or her right-of-way to all oncoming traffic that constitutes an immediate potential hazard; and
(D) Both the headlight and taillight are illuminated when the crossing is made if the vehicle is so equipped;
(3) With more than one passenger unless more passengers are allowed under manufacturers' recommendations;
(4) With a passenger under the age of eighteen, unless the operator has at a minimum a level two intermediate driver's license or its equivalent or is eighteen years of age or older;
(5) Unless riders under the age of eighteen are wearing size appropriate protective helmets that meet the current performance specifications established by the American national standards institute standard, z 90.1, the United States department of transportation federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 218 or Snell safety standards for protective headgear for vehicle users;
(6) Anytime from sunset to sunrise without an illuminated headlight or lights and taillights;
(7) Without a manufacturer-installed or equivalent spark arrester and a manufacturer-installed or equivalent muffler in proper working order and properly connected to the vehicle's exhaust system; or
(8) Unless operating in compliance with the provisions of section two of this article.
(b) An all-terrain vehicle may, for the sole purpose of getting from one trail, field or area of operation to another, be operated upon the shoulder of any road, street or highway referred to in subdivision (2), subsection (a) of this section, other than an interstate highway, for a distance not to exceed ten miles, if:
(1) The vehicle is operated at speeds of twenty-five miles per hour or less; and

(2) The vehicle is operated at any time from sunset to sunrise, the all-terrain vehicle must be equipped with headlights and taillights which must be illuminated.

1 Week to go.....

JB, after we all got stopped we couldn't find anything different that what you posted BUT its cheap insurance to not have the hassle. I would rather wave as I went by than to have to stop and talk about it to the popo LOL
