    WesternNC Bikes 'n Tacos - Fail Festival 2019
    Camping, Mountain Biking, Tacomas, Drinking, and Laughing.

    When?
    Friday, 27 September through Sunday, 29 September 2019
    Where?
    Pisgah Forest Mountain Meadows
    315 Charley's Knob Rd, Pisgah Forest, NC 28768
    https://www.hipcamp.com/discover/north-carolina/pisgah-forest-mountain-meadow
    Who?
    A bunch of Taco-drivin'-mountain-bikin' fools from this forum.

    UPDATE: The host has already made the entire property unavailable for anyone else, so we'll have the entire place to ourselves! :headbang:

    It will be $20 per person for the camping.
    I fronted the money and will collect via cash or PayPal between now and the trip.

    Mostly Stock for now, 265 75 16 Falken AT3W, Tinted fronts...
    Subbed, I’ll be tentative for now since it’s a 7ish hour drive for me. I’d probably try to make a longer weekend out of it.

    @A_Hooligan you on board?

    September is best for me cause I'm a hardcore college football fan.

    Pisgah on Saturday. Dupont on Sunday.
    I vote camping in Pisgah National Forest somewhere

    Oh and I’m in for DuPont/Pisgah. Not a fan of Warrior Creek though I did do the 6WC race this year. This picture sums up my feelings about WC.

    I would vote for Pisgah/DuPont. Was just up there but only got to ride Ridgeline due to weather and lack of a shuttle for Kitsuma. But I also ride SLOOOW up hill and my wife has hip replacement surgery at the end of August, so I may or may not be able to head up.

    Does that mean you want to be added to the list, or just watching it develop for now?

    2 wheeled fun (human powered version) and camping in your hood. Do it.

    definitely should be pisgah/dupont. got a couple conflicts with some of the dates, but the sept 28 and oct 19 dates work for me. Where camping occurs would dictate the vehicle i bring!

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Thanks for the Tag. Yep, that’s right next to my crib.
    Put me in as a maybe... depending on the dates I could join you, and if the mtn house isn’t being used we could all crash at my pad.

    Where you at? My house is at the top of Mtn Winterstar, one peak north of Mt. Mitchell.

    That's a righteous offer. Either way, you're now on the list. :headbang:

    The 28-29 September dates are looking more and more likely at this point. I'll start search for camping options for that weekend. If any locals out there want to point me to a secret spot that can handle 10 trucks and tents, I'm all ears!
