king of the hammers...

Alright sounds good ealier is probably the better way to go

 

Whoever is camping overnight, make sure you bring firewood cause it's phuckin freezing at night. If you've never been out there at night bring extra sleeping bags and anything to keep you warm in your tent. Otherwise you'll be miserable.

 

For anyone wanting to meet in Fontana at 12:30pm (subject to change) on Thursday, please be ready to leave at that time. I should be there by that time and I'll be ready to leave.

 

sounds good

 

We're leaving on Friday morning. Where's everyone gonna be at?

also, does anyone know if there's cell reception in Hammertown?

 

Verizon is usually the most reliable but from Wed-Fri it's hit and miss with everyone out there. Sprint and AT&T work in some places. For the best reception go to the phone bush...seriously.

 

Thanks for the info. where's the "phone bush" located?

 

Yes they are

 

It's in between Backdoor and Chocolate Thunder.
34.414583, -116.507467. Look at the green arrow, not the red google marker. You can see the bush on Google maps.

 

Awesome, THANKS!

 

Haha, the Phone bush. Brings on a funny visual, people trying to fight for a spot, with cellphones flying, lol.

You guys missed the King of the Motos, was an awesome race for the motorcycles last weekend. However there are going to be some kikass rigs out there this weekend! Take some vids! I wanna see some of the good stuff, haha! You know, the spots where it gets all bottlenecked and carnage everywhere cause people are trying to pass in an almost impossible spot!

Such an awesome event, have fun!

Bring firewood!

 

Silly question, but are there places to buy food at Hammertown or nearby? (Am now thinking of driving Friday....)

 

Yea there is like hot dog stands and they sell cheeseburgers and drinks I don't remember the prices though,,,

 

I wouldn't rely on food stands the day of the race. Most people are out watching the race and a lot of the vendors are closed. Like cbassd mentioned, you might be able to find a burger stand but I wouldn't rely on it. Keep in mind, when you're out watching the race there's nothing around unless you drive back to Hammertown. I always take my food to where we're watching the race from.

Read this thread for the local market. They sell everything.
