Hatfield is so big that I want to ride with people who pretty much know their way around.

Id like to go but you set it up on the Casey,IL ATVA NAtional. That is in my backyard. I cant miss it. I really would like to cruise over there but the National is just to precious to miss. I guess I will just have to wait for the next one. Mo:(

Is anybody from IL going to this ride? If they are, can I hitch a ride? I would definatly split gas with ya, I just don't know if I am going to have a vehcile around then to pull my quad. I am selling my truck.

I think I can still make it. I dont think Chris will though. He's been blabbermouthin about sellin his quad and buyin a crotch rocket. The funny thing is that sellin his quad will barely cover one years insurance.

I am trying to figure out if our group is going to make it.. I will have 5 if all come. We have three yes's so far, waiting for the other two.. Hope you have some more room for a Eastern Pa Folks.

Have you reserved the sites yet ?? Not sure if we are tenting or bringing a RV. Are either ok ??

I hope to know by the end of the week..
Talk to you later...

Jason

07-25-2002, 09:51 AM
It's a done deal,,,I got us a site with full hook ups and a over flow site off to the side of it when I called they were almost booked up so I guess it's a good thing I called today. Were not any closer to the chithouse but with a large group thats the price we gotta pay I guess.. I have the site reserved for Thursday the 19th thru the 22nd under the name exriders if anybody would need to call the park for any reason with questions. I informed the lady there that there would be atleast 25 people and possibly up to 40 so there gonna kinda keep another primitave spot open close by incase we would need it..

so how many of you coming think you'll have an RV??

The reason I ask is we had 10 people with tents on 1 RV site last time,,,I plan on reserving like 1 more RV site and another primitive site close to it..or I'll see what the camp site people recommend..:confused: i can see what little hair I have on my head will be pulled out by the time this gets here..

PS...if I'm gettin all this setup I will be charging a beer per person that shows up..the way it's lookin that might be a lot of beer..:D

07-25-2002, 11:48 AM
Good call Rico.. I have 4 yes's in my group, waiting for the other to decide. We may have a RV. Father bought one 6 months ago, but needs work, not sure it will be ready by then. If it is ready, is there a problem bringing it ?? i am willing to tent, but the RV would make a better ride down.
Another question.. If we bring a RV. towing a 8x12 or 8x16 trailer, How do I get all the quads to the trailhead.. Someone want to tow it for me >>. lol..

Gettin closer! I'd like to get a response from you guys if you'd like to go in on some T-shirts with us (PaAtving.com)? We have a special edition shirt in the mix for the H/M ride. I'm waiting for permission from Leo to use the EXriders logo as well. Final cost of the T's will be about 15.00....cost, no markups. Whatcha think?

I will post the info as soon as I get it. Hopefully, I will have it so you guys can take advantage during your trip.

08-06-2002, 06:56 AM
Rico,

I know the track will be at the same property that Dirt week was located. It is halfway between logan and Man. I heard rumor that it won't be completed until next spring, but then I am told different from others. As soon as I get some concrete info I will post it here. The owner has contacted us about selling beer (I work for the local bud distruibutor) but we have'nt gotten an opening time yet. Get back with you soon.

Sounds like you guys are coming in to have a good time. Believe me, if I could I would( I would be the most popular tour guide in the state), but I would then be jobless and then forced to make my living from riding everyday and I don't know if I could handle it or not.

There is actually trail access in Matewan also. Williamson will soon have access and one day, Rockhouse and Buffalo mtn will be connected. They are waiting on the license agreement. There will also be an area called millers creek, which we ride now, that will be part one day. May be five years, may be five months. You never can tell when some of the landowners will decide to sign off. There is also a new system opening in Boone County, off of 119, but I spoke with the rangers and with some people that have already ridden it, and it is not as difficult as the others (geared towards family riding).

Hi All

Heres the demo for the back of the shirt, so far. I didn't have the EX Riders font so I did the best I could, almost a spot on match

http://www.paatving.com/decals/paatvingexriders.gif

Update:

You can order shirts from L to XXXL in colors Grey, Blue and black; also you can order B-Caps too in different sizes and colors.

Also accepted is CC for payment, no paypal. I will post contact info after I get all the graphics worked out, what will work on what.

Also you can get your handles and quads printed on the front pocket to personalize your shirt or hat.

The options keep getting wider and wider.

They will be screen printed

ok, it has been split into 5 different choices; keep in mind the above was only the back of the T.
I have increased the PaAtving logo so that the PaAtving logo and the EXRiders logos are exactly the same size down to the pixel.

Here is the finial draft, for the back;

Now for the choices [back]

1 - For the back you can get the combo EX/PaAtving logos and artwork,
2 - You can get a PaAtving and art
3 - You can get EXRiders and artwork

PaAtving (small) with your handle

trx430ex

08-12-2002, 02:38 PM
we're going to make this real easy. There will soon be a web page designed to take care of ordering the t's or hats. There, you'll be able to deal directly with the company and order your size, user name, etc. Cost will most likely be about 15 bucks for a T. They'll be shipped to your address...still hot off the press! Don't forget to order one for the Mrs. (makes a great night shirt :devil )

If you are riding buffalo mtn any, stop in at outback atv located off the trail in Matewan and say hi to us. A couple of my partners should be in there or I may even be there.

I'm really trying to swing it, its a long haul for me. My riding buddy says he probably can't make it:( Thats a long way to ride by myself.
How many hours does it take some of you, I mean the people over 5 hours?
Looks like on the map i'd hit columbia SC, then Charlotte, NC then straight up and turn left at the tractor on the side of the road next to willies house:D

It takes me approx. 7 hours from Eastern N.C. HH400ex is trying to swing the trip, he will drive 9 hours from Florida to N.C. then ride the other 7 hours with me. I think he will make the longest trek by far.

It will most likely be a 6hr drive from northern va for me............but I have driver longer distances for worse reasons! I will be there this time.

OK, here's the deal Rico. I'm still among the unemployed, so that's kinda got things in a bind cash wise. But I'm still going to try to talk the wife into it. I have 2 verbal commitments from the group I ride with, and my wife has said that she wants to come too.

I'll have to play it by ear, see how the job thing works out between now and then, and see if I can make a little $ on the side to finance the trip. So I'll probably be a last minute decision. If I can swing it, there will be 4 of us. Jenny and Magnum will know my truck.

I don't think I am treking the longest, but it will take us about 10 hrs from Chicago.

maybe by airplane...we did 75 mph and it took us a good 3+ hours from lexington. Taken them bassackward side roads like HWY 10 will add another 2 hours onto the already 3+ hour drive ya got. The only way to go from lexington that's fast is I-64 to charlstown and then south on 119..much much faster...if you ain't on a main interstate headin to logan WV then your takin the slow route. Brokeitin3 if you know of a faster way please tell me..

So only round 9 hours or so then. Thats better but I cant make it out there this time. Ive got school but maybe I will be able to make it out next summer. :D

BTW, Rico when are you wanting to come back down to LBL? Im ready to go in a month as long as I pass my drivers test. Just wait for me this time....haha. Wouldnt happen to have an extra faster quad sittin round anywhere that you could bring with ya would u?

08-16-2002, 05:34 PM

just go to mapquest and use Logan Wv as your destination and that should give ya a pretty good estimate. The campgroung has nice hot showers and restrooms and each trailhead also has a restroom. Anything else?

Me and my buddy plan on riding for four full days when we come down. We should be there on Wednesday. Is there enough to ride? Any good suggestions of places to hit?

Spill the beans man!

There is plenty for you to ride in four, five or even six days. Ride all three trailheads, and if that is'nt enough, email me and I will give you a phone number to call me and hook up for a day or two to help enhance your trip a little. If you have any HM questions, I will be glad to answer them. Have a fun and safe trip.

When are you coming down?

Hey WVexrider - when are they going to open the new Boone County trailhead near Waterways? Is it already open? I thought it was supposed to open in August but I haven't heard anything.
