Kristen, did you plan on having that ride at Hatfield & McCoy or somewhere else?

Planning now would also include commitments, reservations and money
for those involved due to it being Memorial Day weekend.
I would say everything would be reserved by the end of the summer
for that weekend in 2012

Jeb or Tom or someone ... can one of you set up a pole on which trail system would be the best for ALL those who MAY be attending? Maybe knowing which trail system would also be good to help people in setting up reservations.

Memorial Day weekend? imo, prolly not the best week. We did speak of moving the dates into June to try to avoid some of the wet weather. but i'm just one guy. :prayer:

kawboy and i are planning on moving to kentucky in the next 2-3 years and were considering, instead of h & m, moving the ride to Land Between the Lakes so we can make it a fun & knowledgeable trip.

what would you all think about going there? he and inda have been there, but i haven't.

Wow I just looked it up and im guessing that it would be about a 3 day drive for us, but I will keep u posted. It sounds like a great adventure. Will the ride be day riding only or will it be a couple days ride from point to point?
