Spring jamboree is in april. Thats a good place to meet the forum members.

 

My son and I are in the hunt for a new spot about that time. Been to haspin and attica. Now the stupid question......... Where's Windrock? I assume it's IN since your from lawrencburg.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

Oliver Springs, Tn. Btween Nashville and Knoxeville. And yes, I'm getting plans together to attend. I'm just hoping my kid's spr. brk. falls into those dates as she would love to go w/ me.

 

Windrock is 72,000 acres of every terrain imaginable!!!!!
The jamboree has 2 days of guided rides, a day of a poker run type deal (bubba hunt), and mudbogs (great to watch but even I don't get in there), races,pulls, etc. 4 days of ATV heaven!!

4xzuk, We'll be at the campground (not the free one) Weds nite til monday noon. We'll have a sign out that reads "SOUTHEAST INDIANA QUAD ABUSERS", we're on the net somewhere.

kawsukicatguy, Its nothing like Haspin. some trails are miles long and the hills keep going up. At Haspin there are trails shorter than my quad. From the trailhead to the trails is about a mile. The big fans (windmills) are very impressive. the overlooks are breathtaking, the trails range from gravel roads to creek beds to rock beds, and some gnarly hills to avoid. At Haspin the grandaddy hill, DEVILS BACKBONE, is just another trail at windrock. Its about 4 hours from L'burg. 74 to ind rt 1 to 275 to 75 to Oak ridge Tenn.

There are hotels available but better book early.

 

72,000 acres!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I didn't have a great job and family in central IN I'd be moving! Thanks for the info, Sounds like quad heaven. I'll talk to my wife and check out schedule at work but that might be out of my range. I will definetly consider it though, If I do I'll let you know. thanks [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Eiger-pm me w/ more specifics. We are getting details worked out for our 2nd ATV Rider Reader's Ride on the H/M in WV set for late OCT> and are encouraging clubs to attend as we are planning on doing a feature on clubs in the issue that features this ride. I know, that was one He!! of a run-on sentence. But, maybe you guys ought to consider attending.

 

I read the ATVrider article and it looks like it was great. We had the same life-altering experience the first time we went to Windrock. Guided 100 mile rides, (our was really a guided race!!!!!!!!!!!!!) We felt like we were in heaven for 4 days!!!

 

Well put! "Guided race" That's what we were doing. Me and my bud Jim (next to me on the Prairie on the opening page of that article) were the only 4x's w/ the fast group. We drew some smirks until the first break. Then we got "How in the he!! are you guys railing those hogs so fast?" from the "sport" guys. The second day, we out-ran our "guide" (he caught up at lunch and we sprung for his eats. He told us to go on, and he'd meet us at the end). There were only 4 of us in the fast group that day: Billy, Len, Jim, and myself, so we kept an eye on eachother, and knew where we were going. The third day, our "hogs" saved the day, as we met "mud city" and used our winches to extract our "sport" friends-frequently!

 

me and 5-8 guys will be there on 2-24 through 2-28. nice ride area. come and join in if you can.

 

I'm up for some rock climbing. I want to tackle trail 14. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'll be there on the 24th.
