Annual Memorial Day Ride.......

Post by KDX Butterfly »

The guys have done the Annual Memorial Day Ride at Southfork Dirt Riders in Taylorville, Illinois, every year for quite a few years now.

I hope I can join them (and some of the rest of you) for that weekend.
I have been looking forward to riding, especially on that weekend, but I may just have to be the camp counselor. :blink:

Popped a tendon loose from the bone in my left foot last Friday. This Monday, we will see what the good ol' doc has to say about it. I am kinda stubborn so, I am sure I won't let a little tendon stop me from the ride.

See y'aaaaall there!!!!

I gotta work Fri so I think I head out early Sat AM. Will be all packed up. Just need to get up and hit the road.

I haven't been down there in AGES. Where do you guys camp? Old side or new side?

If I can manage to come out I'll be cutting out of work just a tad early. That'll put me there about there about dark Friday PM. I'll need to leave Sunday afternoon but that'll give me a day and a half anyway.

I'll know for sure tomorrow.

I'm fairly sure I'll be by myself. Will there be room for me in the trees?! :mrgreen:

Cool Jeb! Dang, Cinci's a ways. If you don't make it I'm sure you'll be in if'n we do another ride at Land Between the Lakes.

Looks like y'all will probably be OK:

THANK GOD they have showers there now....Only took them like 3 years to build them. Makes camping a non-issue...Heck I might even blast down Fri night.

Y'all are gonna have to bear with me as I haven't ridden in a couple of years...I just realized that :oops: Been karting, but at least it's on dirt :supz: Lookin forward to getting my rolly polly ass down there!
