Huntington, WV metro area BS, Trails, Meets, etc...

at least it cooled off nicely

 

Just stopped for a break....We're setting up the band stage first. Then tents. Good bit of rain here, but no severe storms last night.

Today is "Bambi Walk" here at the club. Bardstown Road in Louisville is home to about a dozen old bars/clubs in the Highland area of town. One is THE BAMBI BAR. (sounds like strip club, but not) They used to host an event years ago where patrons would walk from bar to bar, spending about 30 minutes at each one, enjoying that bar's specialty drink. Also, Bambi Bar had "the Bambi Burger". The night would end at a White Castle at Bardstown Road and Eastern Parkway. Due to insurance liability reasons, the Bambi Walk pretty much died off about 20 years ago.

So....We host a simulated "Bambi Walk" here once a year for our members and their guest's. We set up 8 satellite bars on the golf course, #2 stop selling our version of the Bambi Burger. Each stop has it's own signature drink. The final stop is our pool and resort bar. It turns into a full blown drunk-a-thon by the last stop. It ends at midnight. We bring in about 500 White Castle burgers to sell to those who need food to absorb alcohol at the end of the night. As the older generation (my age) starts to fade away, the younger crowd sort have took over....It went from fun and drinking, to full blown lunacy, and much SHENANIGANS! In the last couple years, we've had to bring in off duty cops to help maintain some degree of sanity.

My crew does band set up, tents, trash detail, and cleans up the aftermath. I'll be here 12 to 14 hours, go home and catch some sleep, then back @ 4AM tomorrow to clean up the mess. Last major club function that I'm a part of for the summer. I should be able to start taking some vacation time after this weekend.

Stop #4 has "Irish Car Bomb's".....My personal favorite intoxicant!

BTW....Rich people still puke all over themselves when they drink WAY too much. Money does NOT preclude you from that indignity.

 

It's almost time to hit the road and head to RRG!!!

 

I am already on my way to RRG. Should be there 1030.

 

Anyone home yet?

 

Damn, well get a pic of the high water mark if possible lol

 

I was sad about missing yesterday. ^^^^^made me un-sad about missing.

Hope damage is minimal....

 

@mwc273 there might be a picture on your camera, I think Myles snapped one. We definitely found a great trail, yesterday was a blast.

 

I totally blocked Matt out of this shot lol. He buried himself in the woods

 

He buried Myles in the truck.

 

I'll get the hang time video posted today too

 

@NKYTaco, you didn't remind me about the sticker, and I forgot to remind myself. Had it with me, just didn't get it to ya

 

I had completely forgotten about it until I got home.

 

There will be other chances. Rush, or RRG again, maybe LBL

 

Hey thanks guys for the tour of RRG (partial tour). It was a great trip with a bunch of great guys! If you all do anything else keep me posted. Always willing to go out and explore (or get stuck), plus I always have my camping gear with me.

 

Kudos to the crawl control. Got him un-high centered 3 times

 

Had a good time as well! We may end up back there and running the same trail sooner than later, Chris forgot to GPS the route...
