So is the 19th is the weekend???
And staying where?
It's fairly far from Rocky Top to the Windrock trailhead.

I read that several may be staying at windrock campground.
I'm open to splitting a cabin if anyone has an extra spot or couch open.
Otherwise, weather pending, I may just get a tent spot and camp.

Yes, weekend of the 19th.

If my math is right we'll have 3 coming from the Oliver Springs side and 4 from Rocky Top. If @TripleB rides he'll be coming from his house and I wasn't sure about sxs. I haven't decided yet. Oliver Springs is closer but @Backwoods, @JayPo and @Smittyp all have larger machines so I don't want to hold them back if they decided to due some heavy cruising toward the meet point or take more difficult trails on the way. The Rocky Top gang are all P5's and I figure anything they can go thru I should be able to go thru. Having said all that the wife and I just want to relax and have fun.

Is this the way most of the group rides go? Don't know why but I figured we'd all start at the same point. Taking what Smittyp said looks like some seat time just to meet in the middle. @futzin said they were leaving their camp around 9am. We'll be at the mercy of who we're following as far as knowing the way and how to get back.

I’m good for whatever but you won’t hold me back. I got over tearing my stuff up years ago. I’ll do what’s good with the group I just enjoy being there

I think it’s gonna be a blast and I’m looking forward to it. I’ll give my TH a bath next weekend, and I’ll leave out about 6:30 Friday morning. By the time I stop at Bucees I’ll be there about 11 to 11:30 get set up and go have some fun

@JayPo , @Red500 what time and day are you arriving JayPo and Red I’ll bring your replacement sticker. I’ll bring some extra MOM stickers from past rides if any body wants some. I only have one OG sticker from the first one so I’ll keep it

I was thinking of getting there 8-9. If you leave the house at 4:00 you could get there early too 😜
