This group is spread out all over, I'm sure we'll find a way to get you there.

Cool biz, I like the idea of riding 3 days as well.

[Mcronkgto TT Gold Member]

Well if Steve and Brett don't mind some company I would be up for this. I was born in Cookeville and spent many summers in that area but never got to take my dirt bike up there when I was a kid. Always wanted to ride up there.

I might do the FTR Samsula Enduro in May just to abuse myself in the heat. I have rode that property in the summer heat and in the tight single track it gets hot. Should be a good test of conditioning for me.

Something to think about regarding the dates. June 16-18 is fathers day weekend. Maybe 22-24 would be the best bet?

[sfront TT Newbie]

Either date works for me.

[Metalman62 TT Bronze Member]

• My vote is for 22-24th . . .

[QuietFlight TT Bronze Member]

I dig the 22-24th as well.

[MrSmooth TT Titanium Member]

Ok, so unless multiple people are strongley opposed, let make it the 22-24th.

Africa, how accessible are the trails at Sequatchie? I'm thinking maybe two days in Winchester and a day in Sequatchie? Just thinking out loud.

[jdaugherty33 TT Bronze Member]

You guys are going to love Carter Mountain. We ride it most weekends in the summer and it's my favorite place to ride. As the OP mentioned, Winchester's only 20 minutes away and it's a great small town between ride time.

I have a friend that guides quite a few dual sport rides around Sequatchie. I'll bet he would be happy to hook you guys up if you decide to ride there over the weekend while you're here.

If there's not a limit on how many can join, then me and the two grandsons are in, too. I've got an ol' dirt bike friend in Tullahoma, I think I'l see if he's interested, as well.

We'll already be in western NC, so it won't be too long of a drive for us.

I'll drop you a PM Mr Smooth.

No problem at all...there's another Wanker (Jason) from those parts that will show us around & may even join us for 2 day...er.

HA......too funny I saw this thread and know some of you knucklheads.

Ya'll come on up and ride the mountain. I don't ride there all the time but can tell you there's a TON of great woods riding there. It is pretty much all singletrack. Everything from fast flow to gnarly, rock legde hill climbs that are 200?? yards long. Def not an easy recreational ride. It has some of the Mid-South's most advanced woods riding. Big bore thumpers make sure you have a cooling fan and bring yo pain pills.........you gunna need'em........heh..heh...heh
















Hey Africa.......when we doing "must have balls" again?

[ihatefalling TT Bronze Member]

2 days at Carter Mtn and then ice it with a day at SV??

I better start conditioning now

Better check into how much it'll cost to get ya'll back home in an ambulace

[QuietFlight TT Bronze Member]

QuietFlight-Erik

Please add me to the list.

[Metalman62 TT Bronze Member]

Wow, this looks great!!!

No tag required, right??

Scott, any ideas on accommodations??

[sfront TT Newbie]

That last picture was in Sequatchie Valley the last time Team Wanker was there with Jason leading.
We did hit a few paved roads to connect the morning to the afternoon........

No TAG!!

There are hotels in Winchester about 10min away. There is dry camping at the site. There is also a horse campground at the site with power and water for a fee but you must trailer your bikes in and out.
