  • Dirty Turtle Day Trip, Sunday May 7th

    Nothing hard core, just a fun day in the woods. Looking at 6-8 rigs currently.

    We can meet at the rest stop and convoy down, if there's interest...

          Good deal. You need to see how these boggers work when they're not bolted to a school bus...

                It's 93 Bucks Run Rd, Bedford, KY 40006. Just past Carrolton.

                It's not huge, only 270 acres. But it's well laid out, and there's a good variety of stuff. You'd probably be bored most of the day in your CJ, but there are a few stupid-steep hillclimbs that'll test your nerve as much as your rig, and bounty hills built for the rock bouncers. The rest of us will just watch...

                But... Didn't you just drag home a more mild TJ? That would be perfect for this trip, sorta back to basics wheeling.

                Either way, I think we're meeting down there about 930, so if we rendezvous at the rest stop in Union, it'd be about 830...

                  FYI, Tony, they just announced a Mud Bog for that Saturday. I have no idea how big a crowd that will bring...

                    The terrain really reminds me of Haspin. DTOR is smaller than Haspin but a much nicer atmosphere.

                      I still have to fix my power steering leak and instal my rock rings. If I can get that done soon I may be able to go. Also depends on the nissan like my dad said.

                        I called... they said it's a good group but typically isn't too crowded

                          Getting close! It'll probably be muddy, but it looks like the rain will stop just in time.

                          We are meeting at the Union rest stop about 8 or 815. If we're back on the road by 830, that should put us at DTOR by 930.

                          Just a reminder, DTOR does have their little general store with snacks n such, but I don't think they've got much that would qualify as lunch. So bring your own...

                          Looks like:
                          Me
                          Tony
                          Nick Lambert
                          Tom Laine
                          Adam Kuyk
                          Sam Strak
                          And maybe the Smiths, all from CORE.
                          Then Jacob, Eric, Clifford and Steven from Tristate.

                          Should be great!
