I'm thinking that Wal-Mart would probably be a better place to meet due to parking with a trailer. But what ever anyone else wants to do is fine . It's looking like there might be 4 of us Indiana boys heading down!

Wally world is just a mile on up the road past 154 exit just off the side of 127.

Sounds like a plan! We can meet there around 8am cst if you want!

The loop I have in mind should be similar to the Alpine ride with a few rough spots and a little rockier (a little slower pace) with less mud.. There is one spot similar to the hill going into hickoryflats unless it has changed since I was last there. I don't know if we will be able cover as many miles due to slower rockier riding but it should turn out to be several, I have never measured it.. As for time we will probably be looking at 7-8 hours which can be adjusted a little if need be...

I am game to change the ride plan if needed!

Sounds good :!:

Rooster and the Windrock crew will be parking at the fork in the roads past the parking lot.. They are going to be heading out around 8am so they should be on the trails when we pull in..

Been looking forward to this ride and meeting you guys for a while now! There will be at least 3 of us coming down for this ride Me, my step son, and my brother. There's a possibility that another guy might come but I don't know yet. We'll be leaving tomorrow morning and are planning to do a little riding at either Brimstone or Windrock tomorrow afternoon. Just to double check, we are still meeting at Wal-Mart at 8:00 cst (9:00 est) on Saturday morning??

Correct my friend! And we will be starting the ride at 9am cst... This gives rooster plenty of time to get his bunch together and on the trails so we do not have so many vehicles on that little Black house mountain road at the same time.. It is looking like there will be 20+ bikes on this one....
