Okay Guys False Alarm. I'm going to stick with the original plan of the weekend of 9-11 May. The only issues are that a couple of trails....I don't know which ones...will be closed for maintenance but just for a couple of hours on Saturday. We have the whole damn weekend to wheel. Allso, we can't reserve campsites but campsites will still be available. There will just apparently be a few working party memebers camping overnight...my guess would be they will only be there for Friday night. So, as I said the change was a false alarm. We are sticking with the original plan of Elbe Hills Campout and Wheeling Run on weekend of May 9-11, 2014.

Yes and NO. Once you make this an organized group event you have screwed yourselves and not just in wheeling but even group cruises on public roads as well. The best thing you could do is simply keep it unorganized and simply state your going camping/wheeling and anyone who wants to join can.

Just throwing this out there, but many state park rangers are deputized by the state and have the full extent of the law on their side... Just saying, dealt with this before and its not pretty. There's no reason you can't wheel there or find a campground close by. But the sites there at the specific location are reservation only
Hmm, well that puts a damper on my rant!! lol. I cant imagine that the whole campground will be taken, its pretty big. If it is then we will figure it out, but im still going either way.

Wtf? This is dumb. Doesn't the state nickel and dime us enough? Tho who's to say that we are all in a group? Shoot you cant go wheeling around here and not run into someone you know, wheeled with or met in town. The whole Offroad community is one but group. Never meet a more friendly group of people in any other sport.
Anyways. I'm guna try and make it. Still have some loose ends yo finish up. But should make it in time.
