2012 DAMN Hatfield and McCoy Trip - April 19-22

[Bucho]

To add/subtract interest, who else would be interested in riding down and making a dual sport trip out of this?

If I had a bigger bike maybe, but no. I'll be coming w/ a 2-stroke and a van.

[Ovo]

I'll be putting bikes in my truck and driving down.

Did we ever get an actual count on who is going to this date?

Mid way on page #4 it looks like May 17-20 is the w/e.
Hopefull to nail down some spring vacation plans with the wife soon, then I will know if I can commit to the date.
Ovo, how about changing the thread title to show the chosen dates and then get a "in" list going.

I put in my request for time off, definitely in. Is there a certain trail head or area where we're setting up a base camp yet? Or are we going to be mobile day to day?

I am planning on having a base camp. Boom Boom sent me some suggestions other than the mentioned Colonial Hotel that I am researching this week.
