October 9, 200619 yr sweet dudes i'm in see you there Neo PS: is it legal to go in there with cars??? i heard that they have some rules is that true?
October 10, 200619 yr ok so where are we meeting at the Red Lion or at the other diner? the ranger's station.. is that by the quaker bridge rd??
October 10, 200619 yr Author Red Lion diner is the first one I hit on my way down.....so that's the one. Be there at 9AM,please If you don't make it there then go to the ranger station and just park on the grass to the left of the entrance driveway and we'll meet there before 10:30,give folks a few minutes,then head in for an hour or so. It helps if folks can bring lunch and just take a break in the woods. But if you have to leave,go for it.You might have a hard time finding us after,so maybe score a map at the ranger station. The topographical map is a little costly,like around $15,but I got one and now consider myself nearly an expert on the place. Just can't screw up with the topo.And I'm a map freak. JSYK that other diner probably has cuter waitresses but they have a small parking lot that fills up fast,as we've noticed around breakfast and lunch.
October 10, 200619 yr Author I need to leave there to come home around 4PM the latest. Is anyone else coming from the north?Especially CT or the NY/CT line region.It'd be nice to have a backup,just incase. So what's our count at? 3?? Maybe svxpert can stop by or maybe so other will chime in now that we're so organized. To those interested but still skeptical,it's fairly light duty sandy trails.We won't punish your car,but it'll have oportunities to "exercise" it's rite.No disasters yet in many runs made.
October 10, 200619 yr If I can bring my bike we may come...Tommys bike is down for the count ( or for the winter with bad front forks) But mine needs about 2 hours worth of work to have it trail ready
October 11, 200619 yr Author I'll try to get Andrew to go,maybe another guy too. Andrew,if you see this.......GO!
October 13, 200619 yr Author I'll check the computer before I leave in the AM if you guys want to exchange numbers.Otherwise see you at the diner.
October 14, 200619 yr Author OK,checked in for the last time.See you there unless you're square. If you have my phone number please don't call untill closer to 7AM,thanks.
October 14, 200619 yr Just woke up so I guess we missed the meet up with Moosens to follow him down...actually Tommy isnt even awake yet so I guess this is a late..not going to make it..till we get the bike loaded and all the gear together..we wouldnt be out the door till 10 anyway.
October 14, 200619 yr Oh Bucky, You missed a good time, i'll place some pics soon, you'll like them, and we are planning to do another run in November before Thanksgiving, so we will do the postings away before that. Keep you all posted for the pics Neo PS: hey guys i still have sand in my head/hair, lol
October 14, 200619 yr ha cool, yeah driving home my right front wheel was clicking like mad, but only during acceleration!!!! i stopped to see what it was but couldnt figure it out, then when i got home i went to wash the car and the brake rotor steamed like mad! the caliper had seized to the rotor, for the entire ride home!!!! guess i got some work to do...cant wait to see those pics!!!!!!
October 14, 200619 yr doooh dude, and i did asked you about the caliper earlier too remember? well you got some work to do, let meknow if we can be of any help OK HERE ARE THE PICS, AND WHERE AND HOW CAN I POST A VIDEO?? I HAVE 1 VIDEO OF ME IN THE SAND PIT. LOL http://www.thawa.net/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=album240&page=1 ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banana: :banana: :banana:
October 15, 200619 yr looks like you guys had a great time...that touring wagon of paul's is a veteran of that place. MORE PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 15, 200619 yr Author Cool time,great conditions,just too short! Next time,MORE time. YOU CAUGHT ONE OF THOSE LIZARDS ??!!!!!!????!! Have to hear how,please. We hit the Shamong Diner just up the road,went back with the clock against us so we attempted fishing for a few mintes then blew out of there.Made good time going back straight through NYC.Made the party JUST in time. I'll have to see what we can do for November.I'm all for it,but can't confirm just yet. Gas is CHEAP!!! in south Jersey. Thanks again for the tug out!! And thanks for the pictures.I never even took out my camera.:-\ My passenger rear wheel now sits noticably cambered out.Car looks well beaten,so we completed the mission. I also have a stuck caliper,I believe,but it was most likely already bad.Car made all sorts of noises and vibrations but was smooth at 65-75+ mph going up the Pike and on the Hutchinson/Merrit pkwys.
October 15, 200619 yr You're may laugh, but I was actually in the northern pine barrons on saturday. Unfortunately, I was at a continuing education class from 8-5 that I need for work:D I knew I could smell the subie love in the air!
October 15, 200619 yr no one told me there was going to be mud! that looked like fun, so i should bring my wagon out some time.
October 15, 200619 yr there should be always mud, its a rule , no mud no fun!! heheh :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
October 16, 200619 yr Author Ended up wasting the center exhaust section on the touring wagon,but it was worth it. My car is making more noise than any band I ever played in. :lol: But it's holding together nicely,so far.I'm surprised it didn't take any real damage underneath except the exhaust.Well,the right rear kind of cambers out now....and the left rear is kind of squashed....and the dents on the doors and fender.....but hey,I got the plant life growing on the bumper off easily enough. Gave it a good washing and it's back in action as a daily abuser. I'm up and down about another run in November.I'll have to see what happens.Work is DEAD slow and I might be laid off soon. IF we do go in Nov. I'll get an earlier start,leave with fuel,and not stop three times like this past weekend.AND,I'll hopefully not have to leave PB early too.Don't forget though,it'll be light out early,but dark really so plan accordingly. Ciao!
October 16, 200619 yr Looks like ya'll had some good fun. Sorry I couldn't be there, Promised Kimmi we'd go to Shocktoberfest. I'll be watching for your next run...maybe I'll bring Foxxy...maybe. Last time I was there with Paul I caught spiders LOL why is it creatures gather when he's around? LOL
