Rausch Creek ATVriders.com Group ride

[Pappy]

After attending the majority of group rides in the past, I would have to say that this ranks as the highest attended and probably most successful ride to date.

Rausch Creek ATV MX park opened its gates to our site for 2 days of fun the entire family could enjoy! A few Pro Riders made the ride and signed autographs for fans, and just about everyone had thier fix of riding thanks to the weather being in almost complete cooperation.

Site member pgregg85 hit the track early saturday morning and had the Expert atv track almost to himself.

[Pappy]

Friday rain showers led to saturday morning fog and mist that is common to the area. I knew the weather would come around and the track conditions would shape up nicely for the event.

[Pappy]

The first few quads came out on the track and started getting the layout down. The track has changed since alot of the members had been there last and there is no shortage of large jumps at Rausch!

Site member Tommy rolls over the take off of a 70 foot double! If you like big air then this is one track that delivers!

[Pappy]

Here pgregg85 rides between one large double. I wanted to try and show some scale so that anyone else thinking of making the trip to Rausch can see that this place is no joke!

[Pappy]

With the sound of quads on the track, more riders started getting geared up and warmed up. Dupontster clears a table as the fog lifts.

[Pappy]

I did not get to meet everyone who attended so i aplogize in advance if i dont mention your name if i post a picture of you. Between photo's, cooking and keeping an eye on my kids I was run a bit ragged:p

XC Racer, Tyler Lenig, isn't afraid to jump.

[Pappy]

KH426 made the trip, and I believe Rausch Creek lived up to everything I told him it was. I think he got lost trying to find the different tracks:p

[Pappy]

With the weather looking like it could bust out raining at any second (it didnt:devil: ) the riders that took to the track early had almost perfect conditions and were having a blast.

I see MXjunkie did indeed get his banshee out of his living room and to the ride:eek:

[Pappy]

It only took a few laps and riders started getting bigger air and the speeds were getting up to where they should be.

[Pappy]

Bansheeguy breaking in his new YFZ!

[Pappy]

cody was having fun learning the advanced kids track!

[Pappy]

Quad041's partner in crime airs out his quad as he practiced clearing the large step down.

[Pappy]

The sun had no sooner peeked thru the clouds when quads started hitting the track like a hobo after a ham sandwich:D

[Pappy]

TLC, aka Traci Cecco sends her YFZ to the sky as she got in some practice. Traci is not only a good egg, and a great rider, she can shuck corn pretty good also:p Thank you so much Traci, and the wife thanks you also.

[Pappy]

Not to be out done, Rick Cecco shows he isnt scared to get some air!

[Pappy]

The main man behind ATVriders.com, Harlen Foley, pushes his GNCC Stock Class Z400 to the limits at every race, and he did not show it any kindness at this ride!

[Pappy]

A bit of freestyle tends to pop up whenever a camera is seen:D

[Pappy]

Here a rider pitches it in and makes a large jump look easy!

[Pappy]

Quad041, a longtime member on this site and one of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet. Lou is not your usual 130 pound MX rider, but if you think for a second that slows him down you had better be prepared to rethink a few things.


Airing his beautiful Walsh CRF450 out over a huge stepdown, he is always willing to style for the camera. Lou, it was great hanging with you guys again this weekend!

[Pappy]

At some point, I realized that there were litteraly quads at almost every section of the track. Trying to cross without being used as traction was getting tough.:p At one point I counted over 35 quads on the Intermediate Track:eek: On some tracks that would be crowded, but not at Rausch!

[Pappy]

Harlen gives me a look as he leads Rick Cecco over the jump. I should have known this would lead to something that could get me run over:scary:

[Pappy]

Ive known Harlen for several years now, and my gut was telling me he was up to something.


(a bit later, when harlen saw the picture, he gave me $50 to tell you all that he was just jumping bigger and higher then rick:o )

(a bit later still, rick paid me $50 to tell you guys it was merely the angle of the picture and he indeed was right with harlen:o )

You guys make up your own mind, i have $100 to spend:devil:

[Pappy]

Actually, we were trying to get a shot of them looking at each other in the air. The way the jump is built, I didnt think it would look right with me being on the side of the jump.

Ofcourse, when I explained this to my best buddy harlen:grr: he said..."c'mon Pap, stand infront of the jump and run away once you get the picture":eek:

[Pappy]

So, there I was. Waiting on my 2 buddies to clear this big jump with me standing on the landing. I dont know if it was the smirk they had on thier faces when they pulled back on the track or maybe it was just the fact I was born with a shred of common sense, but this ol' boy wasnt going to give either one of them the chance to claim they killed kenny:eek:


Now traci I trust:devil:

[Pappy]

My youngest son found the beginner kids track a blast and between him and cdy they went thru 4 tanks of fuel.

[Pappy]

Cody had gotton the advanced track down and was clearing all the doubles they had to offer.

[Pappy]

GNCC Pro Rider William Yokely and Jamie Bougher

[Pappy]

William found some shade and a table and promptly began signing autographs for all that wanted one. It was great seeing him stop by to check things out.

[Pappy]

GNC Pro Jason Luburgh arrived, but decided he wanted to show everyone how to go real big and real fast!

[Pappy]

Randy Lehr arrived saturday morning, with expectations of spending the day getting huge air and having a blast as usual. Bad luck side lined Randy after only a few laps as something in his engine let go.

My brother handed him the keys to his YFZ and Randy indeed got his chance to show everyone he is a great rider in his own right!

[Pappy]

Luburgh nails this 80+ jump with ease!

[Pappy]

Lehr wasnt going to let this pass without himself nailing the jump.

Now my brothers YFZ is not really what you would call a race quad. Stock engine, stock pipe, stock swing arm etc. Randy just hammered it:devil:

[Pappy]

I actually missed all this fun and was preparing the food. I sure wish I could have seen these to talented riders ripping it up!

[Pappy]

Jason is getting close to needing a pilots licsence i think!

[Pappy]

And Lehr may need a parachute instead of a chest protector:eek:

[Pappy]

Thats all i am going to post for right now. I would like to give the members a chance to tell some stories and what not. I know we all had a blast and my 2 kids are pretty wore out, not too mention me and the wife. It was great seeing everyone, and meeting new faces.

I have more folks to thank but for now id like to see what some of you thought about Rausch Creek and the ride!

[Pappy]

Just a heads up, between harlen and myself we have over 1200 pictures. I have all of them and im getting harlens loaded up now. we tried to get everyone so bare with us while i get everything posted.

[QuadRacer041]

great ppics pappy and thanks for the kind words, i had a great chatting it up with you too.
i wish i felt a little batter and could have ridin more but my stomach was killing me all day yesterday

[Ralph]

pappy how did those pics come out with the graphics and the other one where im **trying** to lay it out a little...

[TWISTED]

All I can say is the only thing that could have possibly made it better would be if it was an every week event!!! From Pappy's mad skills with grill and smoker, Chad's knowledge, Jim's BAD ***** 530, Luburgh, Lehr, Gregg, and whoever 133 was aerial skills, and Rausch's awesome facility, everything was pefect. Let's do it again in the fall!!!!!

[Mxjunkie]

Awesome pictures, cant wait till next year.

[CannondaleRider]

Nice pics Pappy...I wish I was there

[TheFontMaster]

This was my first time on a motocross track, and I can't say how much fun I had out there, even if it was only a rental 250ex I was riding:o It was great to meet some of the people that I am always talking to on AIM or here, and put a face to the name. Everyone there was helpfull, and very friendly. For the first half of the day my 250r was getting worked on. Thanks to QuadRacer041 and his friend for helping me get my motor started, Kenny's brother for the hour or so that he was helping me get everything tightened up. And again thanks for the rear wheels and tires ken.

[chad502ex]

awesome pictures Pappy!

i tell ya I see a tradition already.... :D

nope, noone even noticed until after it was all over. that was the spot harlen had setup with a table and chairs and Yokely took advantage of the shade the canopy was offering (the sun was blistering hot)

[450robot]

man that looked like a blast man! i really wish i could have made it out there!

i guess i will have to wait till next year (unless you have another event this year... PLEASE!!!!!!!!!), glad everyone had fun, and hope noone bailed or crashed


some of those jumps look massive! (of course ive never been to an mx park so i wouldnt know) what track were most of those pics from?

[hardkoratvmxr]

all of the pics are from rausch creek

[450robot]

i know that, i meant what skill track

[hardkoratvmxr]

most of them were prolly from the intermediate track

[Pappy]

Ralph sporting the prototype ATVriders.com graphics and he decided to show me his approval over this double:p

[Pappy]

Ralph was riding great today and here he comes in for a landing over the big stepdown

[Pappy]

Ralph2 was also getting the job done. Both you boys looked like you had a blast out there!

[Pappy]

Tyson Thomas was up to the task. Im not sure what happened, but later in the day he had no front fenders.

[Pappy]

Chuck aboard his brand new 06 YFZ!

[Pappy]

By the end of the weekend, most of the riders had a good feel for the intermediate track.

[redrider4ex]

The ride was great.. my first time out to Rausch Creek and i loved every minute of it.....The weather couldnt have been better on saturday...and friday was just rediculous with the mud... and the car washes up there are EXPENSIVE $1.50 for 3 mins. that was beat........pappy and his madd grill skillz was good..way to go Pappy, thanks for dinner..... thanx to harlen and everyone else taking pictures i know there is a s**t load... good luck sorting them out guy and looking forward to another ride REAL SOON

[Pappy]

There were deffinatley alot of different set ups one could take a look at.

[Pappy]

The track featured a cut off at a double double section. That is pretty cool for folks that just want to have a wide open run instead of the jumps.

[Pappy]

Berm shots are sweet, and with huge berms to rail around on you can get your fill at Rausch!

[Pappy]

Here comes Harlen!

[Tommy 17]

lookin good guys...

i had a blast... the blisters on my hands suck and the 406 is trashed but its all good:D


pappy the food was unrreal... i def know where i'm goin when i'm hungry haha...


it was nice meeting everyone again and some new faces... i finally got to meet lil joshie and bust his balls some haha

pappy post up a few more pics of me haha... i know ya got em! i wanna show a few people...

[Pappy]

There was some awesome looking rides hammering the track!

[Pappy]

Even the kids track has awesome berms!

[Pappy]

you did fine. id rather go to the track, have fun and make it home without a visit to the ER:p

[Pappy]

Ralph wanted to hit the step up in the back. I simply told him to hit it hard, if he over shot the berm to jump that also:eek:

[Pappy]

Chuck did really good. He only had 15 minutes seat time before the ride and made some changes to the quad friday night. He was riding new Burgard arms and im happy to report they did really good for him.

[Pappy]

This weekend took its toll on me:p I can tell by the pictures that i was getting tired. I still managed to get a few that should make someone happy:cool:

[Pappy]

pgregg85 making sure i see him clear the big step up tripple:devil:

[Pappy]

Some riders are so smooth, taking pictures of them is almost too easy

[Pappy]

Insane eh?

posted the wrong pic!

[Tommy 17]

i love that pic...


the best crash i saw all day was a guy on a z400 5th gear pinned hit a rut... flipped the quad over 6 or 7 times... then his buddy ran him over with a raptor and he walked away somehow... quad was trashed thou!:o

[Pappy]

those that didnt have shirts to show support got them as harlen sold boxes and boxes of them at cost! thanks a ton for that, you cant hardly buy plain shirts for that!

[Pappy]

thats the infamous Chad502EX on the left.

that look is scaring me:devil:

[Pappy]

here is a really clean Z

[fasterz]

hey i know you said you had alot of pics but if you see any of me please post them or send them to me. I was on a red/black jrd 450r, i was talking to you (harlen) about my buddy not being on the list for the ride im not sure if you remember. well i was hoping for a pic of doing the tripple back in the woods, later in the day i ended up over shooting it by liek 20 feet and breakign my hand becuase i tried to do the 90footer after it and had wayyy to much speed, but any way id like to see a pic of me if you could. Thanks a ton. and what an awsome day it turned out so nice i thought it was going to be ****ty and rain like it does every other time i go there ha

[Pappy]

i think i can handle a track thats all berms:p

[Pappy]

Ralph2 getting a tow due to a lost axle nut.

[Pappy]

The guys at Mobile Dyno tweaked Codys little 90 and fixed him up. A needle clip change gave him some dyno proven torque and much better throttle response. A main jet swap will hopefully find us a bit more power also.

[Pappy]

I am going to build him a MX track now, he seems to do real well:eek2:

[Pappy]

Other then a few of the lips being rolled over, this was an excellent track to teach a kid how to ride MX.

[Pappy]

Ralph's quad decided it wanted to stick its front end in a pond:eek2:

man nice job at taking pics, those are some awesome pics, adn it looks like cody knows how to handly the 90 out on the mx track

I about got thrown off. Oh btw i ened up on the dirtbike track. Shortcut anyone:confused: :blah:

so whats the dyno #'s on your 450
i was disapionted with mine although they did find that my jetting was MUCH to rich all around so i should be able to get more power out of it. i only made 39 hp
what about you?

[465Stroker]

Harlen & Pappy,

Thanks for the great time - We really wanted to stay but had to go. Lot's of nice quads everywere.

Did I see a Warrior with NOS on it? :huh

good to see you guys again, sorry we didnt get a chance to talk a bit.

[Pappy]

Lou, after they went ahead and allowed more air into my airbox via a HRC type cut to my stocker, my R pulled 39.3 with just an exhaust. its all stock, even the cdi.


4rick, it was as always a pleasure to see you and traci again. i also saw that NOS bottle on the front of that quad:huh

pgregg hitting a large double on the expert track

[Pappy]

With alot of the jumps being so large, the bigger air you get the better pics i can get. alot of riders who would just pop the jumps would be almost unseen from the ground so pics were unobtainable.

[Pappy]

Duponster was looking really good out there!

[Admin]

Originally posted by aLLoY MX 428

Yes, I do have tearoffs on both sides. When I load my goggles with tearoffs, I put the first one or two toward the right and the rest toward the left.

The reason for the ones to the right is for two reasons. First, If I reach for one tearoff and accidently pull them all on the left, I still will have atleast one or two left to finish the lap on the right. The other reason is too warn me that I am on my last tear off, so I will know when I pull it from the right that is it for the lap, and I will need to pit for goggles.

This loading method has saved me several times over the years because I hate riding without goggles especially in the mud.

[Pappy]

i had 300+ and plan on posting more. im having trouble getting all of harlens to load from 2 cd's but im working on that.

[pgregg85]

Great pics Pappy. We had alot of fun on Saturday and wish we could have stayed for dinner.

we all were commenting how cool it would have been to see you hit the 80+ footer. i may have even tried to get you and Luburgh to hit it side by side:D

i will have a cd for you for the next time i see ya;)


i believe Smiley did not get another Predator to bring over, and im not sure about Borich. there was so much going on that they could have been there and noone would have noticed, unless they came out on the track!

[03GNCC270]

I KNOW BORICH WAS OVER THIS DIRECTION RACING SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.

[xraptorriderx]

i had so much fun it was awsome the food was great and so were the pics great job
thanks pappy:D

[Pappy]

I hope we got pics of everyone...lol

I really wasnt supposed to be out that long in the sunlight, but i kept going in and cooling off etc. no sunburn for me:p

haha yeah he does. now we will be visiting the engine builder and getting the new carb installed and back on the dyno. it should be in the 9~10 hp range but with the stock carb its only pulling 5. imagine what he will hit with twice the power:devil:

i know a few parents were a bit spooked when he was passing yz80's and what not:eek2:

[Pappy]

and from not riding for the past 3 1/2 weeks he sure is paying for it! he can barely walk he is so sore:p

Tyler was hitting stuff right out of the gate!

some riders didnt seem like they were going to do much, then they would set sail!

[Pappy]

I have mixed feelings about the Z400, but some folks ride them like they are flawless.

You keep saying it got really warm out there...just curious, but what were the temps like?

[Pappy]

saturday morning was overcast, misty and around the mid 70's

saturday evening the sun was out, probably in the upper 80's

sunday morning it was humid as all get out and the sun was very strong. it was 96 when we left according to my truck

[hardkoratvmxr]

[CannondaleRider]

We usually go riding in 95 to 110 degree weather most of the time...now that sucks:D
