Pics from the weekend

What's there to say. Great weekend of riding and relaxing. Just sad it took this many years to finally make it to KT. Thanks to Getch and everyone else for organizing a good time and making sure the weather cooperated.

Thanks Getch

After the rides Friday I soooo missed the riding Saturday and Sunday. Wedding was nice, but could not compare to where I wanted to be.

Getch thanks for procuring the sites. JMac thank Ellen for the Pasta Sauce... Very nice.

Tom... Hope you were able to ride Saturday. Great ride on Friday both loops. Need to plan another trip up there this fall before they close.

Steven

Great weekend

Way to go Getch for securing the campsite(s), being thoroughly prepared for the food thang, and for arranging the great weather.

I believe that, if I'm counting correctly, we had ten people sleeping in 7 locations(tents, vans, cars, pop-up) on two campsites...outstanding.

Sooooooooooooo...what weekend works for 2008? Who's got pictures to post??

Thanks guys for a great weekend.

JMac

Food and Travel

Friday arrivals include, in order of arrival, Tom and Steve, Getch and John Mac by 3, Tim by 4:30. We'll all get that late afternoon ride in if the weather clears out. John is throwing a pasta feed Friday evening so bring your beer and munchies. Someone grab the garlic bread.

Saturday arrivals include John Sanders, Sven, Charles, and Dennis who reportedly are spending Friday night somewhere between Conway and the Kingdom. Getch will have pancakes ready Saturday morning for everyone and we all should be able to rally at the campsite and get outa there by 10 AM.

On the not heard from lately list, unconfirmed, and maybes are Todd Heysler, Monty who always shows by midnight, and maybe a few Importech guys.

For newbies, be sure to stop in East Burke Village at the Trails office for your trails pass. Grab a map. For the campground, drive up past the ski area to the entrance of the Burke Mt. Auto Rd. From the campground entrance, take the circle counterclockwise after the office cabin. We have 2 sites, 18 and 26 - first sites you come to.

Saturday evening is pot luck dining in camp. So far we have vienna sausages ( Homer Simpson's favorite), salad, burgers, kielbasa, sweet corn, sweet potatoes, and apple crisp, more dessert. There is a fireplace and a grill, couple of campstoves.

Can we ride this string of beautiful days through next weekend?
Comment here if getting organized is your thing: when you're leaving town, got room in your car for people or bikes, what you're bringing to Saturday's pot luck dinner, where we're riding Friday
