Rodney heck if worse comes to worse we will just pitch a tent on the side of the road. it has been about 3 yrs since I tent camped you know when you have a camper it is hard to sleep on the ground i bought a new tent about 2 weeks before i got this deal on the camper it hasn, ever been set up. I still have all my old camping gear i just have to dig it out. Ithink it would be fun to camp and ride.ya'll might have to pull my old but off the ground in the morning time but i am ready. Steve and Andy how does it sound to you guys a little camping and riding. Rodney just let me know when and where and Iwill try to show up.
Andy how did you and Austin and the family enjoy Mickeys house or have yall gone yet

Hey Ward thanx for the advise. I have heard that Laruel Honda is a nice place to do buisness with. We have a Honda shop in Meridian but I refuse to go back in there after offering to advertise for them for free through our Club and being given the cold shoulder. Kinda pissed me off with the way they acted and I probmised then I'd never buy anything from them or would I ever recomened them to anyone. I have yet to have any problem with the guys at Laurel Yamaha but I guess I just haven't done enough buisness with them yet. I guess its just that all the other dealers seem to be so much better than ours around here. Kinda pisses me off again thinking that I just spent about 8,000.00 dollars on a quad (with all the warrenty crap and add ons I have) and all they can think about is selling me another one. I asked my local Kawasaki dealer about the front diff. oil on my P650 and they sold me 80 90 weight oil. I even asked the dude that works on the quads for them and thats what he said when its clearly stated in the service manuel to use the same as your engine oil. Kinda makes you wonder what the heck they do to your quad when you bring it in for a service.
Hey Smitty that sounds great to us. About the ground deal I hear you man. I just told my wife the other day that we were about to invest in an air mattress if we were going to be camping very much. Wal-Mart has the Colmans for around $25.00 and I think thats well worth a good nights sleep, compared to the last time we slept in the tent and all I could feel was this giant root poking in my side. Anyway just let us know what you think and we'll ride where ever and whenever. I have posted some of the new pics to our site but still haven't gotten the good ones of all us last time. I'll try to get them by tonight. catch you latter.

No problem. It sounds like you have the same problems at your shop that I did at Laurel Yamaha. I will not go in there either, unless I HAVE TOO have a part and they say they have it in stock (that doesn't always mean they do though).[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Wal-Mart also has camping pads that are pretty inexpensive and work very well. It keeps you from having to blow up a mattress. Its just dense foam that rolls up, like a sleeping bag. I have one that I use any time I camp.

 

Hi fellas

We are having a BonFire night ride on the 12th and 13th of July out at Red Creek. You might want to check out our site if you haven't already. www.redcreekoffroad.com
We don't have bathrooms or power yet but the permits are applied for. Right now you can throw up a tent anywhere you want and stay the night. (the sandbar is nice) We intend to have a huge bonfire due to all of the wood that has piled up while clearing off areas. If you cant make it then come out any weekend! I'm there every Saturday and most Sundays.

I just read the last several post I wrote and I called Dave, Steve I am sorry CRS is setting in bad. I guess I will get everyones name and face strait after maybe 5yrs. I am bad about names and now CRS is setting in. Rodney I guess Bernie answered the your question about camping so we can pitch a tent on the property and not on the side of the road.

Hey guys looks like Bernie gave us a weekend to think about if you guys want to check out Red Creek. It doesn't really matter to me when we ride as long as we ride soon. I have checked out the Red Creek area and it looks pretty muddy. I just got my Praire back together a week or so ago and hate to hit the mud again but oh well thats what its for. I'm gonna email Bernie and see if there are go arounds for the mud or if you have to cross it. I hope that there is a way around it because I wanna bring my Blaster so my wife can ride by herself. Besides I just got a new helmet and just gotta see if it'll work[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Anyway if you guys wanna ride either weekend or both just let me know. I'll post some info about the Red Creek Trails as soon as Bernie gets back with me. Anyway everyone be thinking about what they want to do and just give us a date. Were Game!!! Gotta love riding.

 

Hey, I'm a fully equipped camper, air mattress and all. The best to get is a Coleman, because they are thicker than the others. Also, an inflator/deflator that plugs into the cigarette lighter works real good. I didn't ride this weekend but want to go soon. Mine is still muddy from the last Tiger Creek run and I need to clean all of that mud off. That's the bad part about getting in all that mud. To me, mud is fun, but getting stuck isn't. I also like a place where you can get some speed up. Don't worry about it Smitty, I'll go by anything! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I do want to try the pipelines and the other places. I was originally thinking that there were very few places to ride, but by looking around and talking to y'all, there are more places to ride than I thought. It just takes a little traveling. I'm going to try to find some info on Centreville and I made a post asking about it on a Louisiana ATV Club forum.

 

Dave they are shutting down tiger creek 7-7-03 to fix it Rodney sent me a e-mail that the forester service. We all should plan on going to red creek the 12 &13 of July and camp.

Is there any sand to ride on in biloxi area? I saw a pic in dirtwheels ( i know yall hate them) that showed a guy ridng on a sand hill and he was from biloxi. It was in the "LETTERS" section. He stated he rode in biloxi on sand and he said this brilliant thing, "sand doesnt hurt as much when you wreck."
Did yall see this? It was a few months back. I was wondering where the riding place was. I know about LA DUNES in louisiana, and go there frequently but there is supposed to be a bunch of sand to ride on in or near biloxi???
I have a ATV connection of trail listings and there is supposed to be something in biloxi with sand dunes?? Is it the rattlesnake bay thing? I know its closed, but was sand there?

 

Maybe Saw Dust Piles has sand. I've heard about it, but never been there.
