Anyone riding out to this from the DFW area? I'm looking for people to possibly meet up with, riding buddies can't make this one because they are already booked for the weekend, but I wanna go!

Road Riders?

Any road riders this year? There were 5 or so last year.....

Road rider here, unless I get an Ural sourced before the ride and decide to take on the CDR during the holidays!

Planning to be there . . .

**WoodButcher** · 07-01-2012, 09:27 PM

I don't know if I will have two bikes or just one. If two, then one day will be all pavement.

Has any one camp at Spadra Creek use area ran by US army corps of engineers Camping area it boast to be a Class A Park with flush toilets, showers, a trailer dump station, visitor protection, and 23 sites with water and electricity at each, and 5 tent sites. what more could you ask for?

I plan on camping on this trip.

**nchristie** · 07-04-2012, 03:19 PM

ROOM:
Just reserved a room - arrive Thursday 30 August, depart Monday 03 September. Two double-beds, one of me - anyone want to share the room, PM me.

RIDE:
I'll almost assuredly be riding the bike up on Thursday, leaving from NE Houston in the AM. Anyone want to ride up with, PM me.

I will do the registration "soon."

I am also arriving Thursday but most likely trailering after lunch...
See you there.

I did last year. Wouldn't recomend it! Train track runs the length of the site and runs every 2 hours or so. I stayed Thursday and Friday night and then got a hotel.

This needs to be a low budget trip. If you are aware of a better camping area near by? If not I will listen to the trains toot- toot

TallGears · 07-10-2012, 12:17 PM

Reddog, are you going to ride out from Arlington on the Friday before?

I plan on leaving on Friday early real early before the crack of dawn. I am going to trailer my DR400 to the Rally. This is a low cost trip, so plan to camp, enjoy freedom of ride.

The trailer can handle 2-small motorcycle you
are welcome to join if you like.

**Electrified** · 07-11-2012, 07:46 AM

Thinking about it.

fossil · 07-14-2012, 11:41 PM

Richard, I have your 1st edition guide. Have there been any revisions or tweaks, as a result of last years trip, to the map source files that would be available for purchase?

Trail Boss · 07-15-2012, 08:01 AM

Hi, fossil.

I haven't made any changes or tweaks to the guide, so the 1st edition is still current.

I live in the bonham area. If my wife and kids don't go I won't be taking the camper. I could meet up with you. I will find out tonite if they are going.

TallGears · 07-15-2012, 07:20 PM

Ok great. I am still waiting to hear from some other local friends who may ride out with me. Let me know and we can maybe all ride out together.

Infidel · 07-15-2012, 11:11 PM

I think im gonna make this ride but am hoping for at least one full day of riding in the forest with a group. I would like to hear from those that are planning on a dual sport weekend with one day paved and one day dirt as I will be bringing two very different bikes...

Sounds like an awesome experience...
