2024 Hondasxs Takeover Ride List

[JACKAL]

This is for official group rides the volunteer Guides can list in one place for Wednesday, May 29th through Saturday June 1st 2024.
I will try to update this post and the next two reserved posts for Group Rides by day / date.

If you want to Guide a group all volunteers appreciated, just start a conversation with me with the particulars and will share below accordingly.

THURSDAY, MAY 30TH 2024
@Vondy
Thursday - JELLICO/TACKETT LOOP

Easy to moderate ride. Leaving from Rock Ridge Campground at 9:30.

Will be riding road up to Jellico area and hit water trail, Primroy arch, Triple Arch cave, and Rooster Cone Overlook. Time permitting we will then will head towards Tackett and hit the popular sights there. Leave with full tank of fuel, have lunch and drinks for the day. I have 5 machines in our group going and welcome more to join us.

Also.,...

@JACKAL - Guided Ride through New River Unit. Easy- Moderate trails, showroom stock machine OK / family friendly trails. Depart 10AM SHARP / RRB STAGE. Recommend to pack snacks / lunch. Approximately 80 miles 8 Hr. Ride with several stops at overlooks and a waterfall, and stop at Smokey Junction / Hembry Bologna Store for sandwiches / ice cream in afternoon

I don't have a saved route for this yet as my older tracks include the now shuttered Eternal Flame, the Dean Mine Road is no longer a valid route for a family friendly group of any size when muddy and is not easy dry, so I will try to share a proper route for this ride before the week of Takeover. Check back here for the .GPX file for an accurate route in the next few weeks.

@JACKAL - Brushy Mountain Prison Loop approximately 120 miles. Depart 9AM SHARP RRB Stage- 2.5 Hrs to BMP - 3Hrs at BMP for tour / lunch / gift shop - 5-6 Hrs. back by trail. Return Approximately 8-9 PM. Easy Trails/ Family friendly. Recommended for those who have never been.

The return trails route is 80% different from the past 3 years, less pavement / less gravel & more trails with Mill Creek Waterfall on edge near Brimstone.

The attached route starts and ends near Shoney's in Caryville, does not cover from RRB to Caryville but easy to figure out, I have a guided group on May 5th that I will update / replace this route it will start and end at RRB General Store.

Saturday June 1st 2024

@JACKAL - Guided Trail Ride Depart 10 AM Return by 5PM Sundquist Waterfall Loop approximately 55 miles and 6 waterfalls 6-7 hour ride with several stops. Easy Trails subject to not having heavy rains during week prior.

I do not have a track for this loop that departs and returns from RRB as that changes the direction I would go. I will run this route in the next 2 weeks and share it here for anyone who wants to do it themselves.


Official Takeover get together 6PM at RRB Stage area.

GPS TRACKS
Attached to this post, I will share the tracks of several good saved routes for the Guided Rides. Only the Primroy Arch route has some hard trails but nothing a stock machine could not handle.

These are .gpx files that you can copy and paste into your Tracks or Tracklog folder then can use as a Route for navigation.
