I'd be down to go like mid august

 

i think everyone is going to the mod day that weekend.

 

Thought we would throw up the plan to any one who is interested. We will probably still go even if its just the two of us.

 

Nobody?

 

I wanna go... I have to talk to the wife its our aniversary.

 

Chris are you planning on wheeling the trail saturday. What time would you get there on saturday?

 

We were talking about driving up Friday evening, camping Friday night then wheeling Saturday.

 

Ok. Im still trying to persuade the wife. I was planning on going up friday night and wheeling saturday if I went. Would you guys camp at the spot by the river about a mile in? What time would you head up friday?

In the video below Im the one pulling up to camp at night.

Not sure where we would camp. I have a traditional tent not a RTT so idk if that makes a difference. For leaving, I was thinking we would probably head out no later than 5:30-5:45. I forget what time Chris gets off work but I'm usually back home by 4:30 or so.

 

There is a spot about a mile in that has plenty of room for ground tents.

 

Looks good to to me. I wouldn't have an issue camping there so we can just go with that

 

Its pretty much the best spot unless you want to pay to camp. Ill talk to the lady again and see if we can go. Its our anivarsary so I need to keep her happy.

 

For sure man. Priorities are important haha

 

Hey Nick!

I should be able to get off work at about 5-5:30. Ideally I'd be heading out at about 6-7. Its going to be dark by the time we get there so be ready for some night wheelin!

 

Updated the first post with the trail info. Basically the same deal as the last trip (except I'm going this time).

 

Reaching maximum stoke levels

 

My wife gets off work in dublin at 6. I like night wheeling so no problems there. I got the lights.

 

Jelly for sure
