Sept 18/20 East TN - MTB Ride and Camp

Brown Bike Farms should be available for groups - its the best campground around for sure. With that being said, I'm staying at home since I live 3 mins from that campground.

So @GrundleJuice you may need to be the SME for the camping situation. Kat, the owner, is very helpful and accomodating. Tell her Alex with Knox Outdoor Tours sent you

Cool. Thanks for that info.

are you guys all in for camping at Brown bike farms?

If so, I assume it will be Friday and Saturday night only? Anyone staying Sunday night also?

@honda50r - do you know or are you able to find out if Stronghammer is also camping?

Anyone I might be missing that would be camping?

 

tag didn’t come through with a notification for me, first time that’s happened. Hopefully it just happened to me!

I’m not sure which days I’ll be there (usually hard for me to get away 2 full days depending on work), but I’ll happily throw in on the campsite either way so I have a spot for it I’m there for a night haha

 

Am I correct to assume everyone will be rocking full face?

 

Prob not unless Windrock

 

Just trying to figure out if I need to snag one before. Looking at the Leatt dbx 4

 

I basically bought the cheapest one I could find. Not something I use everyday

Edit: I did spend a ton on my halfshell

 

I’m essentially looking for the cheapest one that breathes okay haha

 

just search all the websites closeouts. That’s what I did when I got a 7idp project 23.

 

No full face for me. I'll keep my old ass off those trails.

 

Anyone able to commit to camping at Brown bike farms yet? If so, post which nights please. I'll call them tomorrow to ask about availability and cost.

 

Put me in for Saturday at the campground at least. Even if that doesn’t work out for me, still happy to chip in for Friday and and Saturday night.

just my truck and rtt, so won’t take up much space if we’re doing multiple trucks a campground

 

Just reshaped a primary jump line yesterday - things should be burnt in nicely when we ride out there

 

Good news: got a sweet Leatt discount code from my buddy who races bikes.

Bad news: the full face I want (dbx 4.0) is sold out and won’t have more stock until the 2021’s are out in October

Anyone have an extra full face in size large they want some $ for me borrowing for a day or two? I’m on go-slow duty (this trip is 3 weeks before my wedding), so I promise it won’t be damaged! Would pay for a new one if it was of course

 

so seeing as the DBX 4.0 is about a $200-230 helmet IIRC try this.

Found in about 10 mins of googling premium helmets with highest discount.

Sweet price on that nice of a helmet! Only $30 more than what the Leatt would cost me.

Wish it had a bit more vents but it is super light. Thanks for sending man!

 

So @whitedlite are you coming?

 

I definitely hope to, it depends on work.

I’m working on getting a bike holder for the bed bars with RTT. If I can’t find anything it will be taking wheels off bike and throwing in bed.

 

Hi I’m new around here but I saw this thread and would like to tag along! I’ll be able to be there late that Friday or maybe early Saturday morning.

 

no
