    The car pooling is something we thought about in ast events and we tried to "link-up" folks. This good natured thought and intent met a snag as there was no effective way for us to do this as sharing contact info on this forum and other like it was met with resistance by some and also to "broker" this took time. Aside from doing what Rob did above and then the parties PMing each other, I do't see another alternative. Thoughts? We even tried to solicit gas stations for fuel cards to give to the "furthest traveled" but gas companies stink for swag.

    Forgive me if this has already been mentioned, but I've been meaning to ask this for a while... Could anyone say how large of a riding area you had?

    We have had and used 3 different areas for the 6 events and each has had a 7 mile minimum loop. If you want acreage...I would guess like 150 minimum

    Walter told me he has 267 acres and has access to another 250 or so.

    I was mentioning what we used. There were more at each place but cutting single track takes time and depending on hay season....pastures are off limits

    Got it...I'd have no way to estimate how much we actually rode on. There is a lot of land there and Walter told me we didn't see 1/5 of what he has laid out there!

    Anyone know if he bought a 310?

    Any tentative dates for this year? Does the location switch every year?

    Rumor has it that high level discussions are taking place now regarding location and dates. I can't reveal my source, but it is a really good one. I also heard S.P. was thinking of heading over from Austria, but that was a friend of a friend who worked at a motorcycle plant in India—something could have been lost in translation....
