Twinlakemike..... There is plenty plenty plenty of trail riding to be done at this event. Although this post was intended to discuss people bringing parts and what they are bringing, there is another thread regarding the actual event.

Jusy putting out my wish list for the swap meet. All I need to finish my Max IV is a rollcage and rear floor pan. If anyone has either, please let me know what you want for them. Thanks.

Can anyone tell me about the camping? Are reservations needed, electric hook ups and so forth ? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, T bone

[amphibious drew]

Um, the easy answer is no to all of your questions. They got an outhouse.

[tbone9]

Lol. All righty then. Thanks for the quick reply. There is camping though right?

[hydromike]

Yes. The majority of folks camp out, but there are no showers. Pine lake has a nice area to go wash off in...

[jerseybigfoot]

To be totally honest, Drew, Yes we can tell you about camping. then no electric hook ups, then thank you for appreciating our answers.

Now that we have Drew squared away, There is lots of level areas to camp. no sites per say. motorhomes trailers and tents are all mixed in. They have port-a-johns brought in. Showers are available away from the campsites near the lake. you can fill up your water jugs at the lake house. Park near the track if you want to get dusty. Attex owners have their own ward in the asylum and are easy to spot with their yellow tee shirts. Just drop a few key words like JLO, or Super chief and you join everyone standing around drinking beer and watch Don or Mike wrench. Matt has his entourage of like minded antique pilots. Usually something never seen before shows up down there. There are also other smaller groups hidden in the trees. in general a great place to camp.

Thanks, that helps me out a little more. If I can go it would be to trail ride more than anything.

Really? I only recall the shower stuffed with a bunch of mops/brooms and other cleaning supplies for the last few years. Is there a top secret location that I'm missing that has caused me to go to bed smelling like smoke, beer, Klotz and sausage every year?

[jerseybigfoot]

Mike you have to ask Bud for the ladies shower key. maybe he has to vet who goes in there so it does not smell like racing fuel and sausage. Tom Z showered there last year on Sunday night.

Lots of nice trails for riding and swimming in the lake.

Just follow the water truck with some soap.

After one year when the "shower" consisted of the lake and a bar of soap......I bought one of these Shower Tent: Northwest Territory Comfort from Kmart
I actually ended up with 2 of them.......If anybody is interested in the second one, I'll bring it along.
With all the parts I'm bringing for people.....I think the new trailer will be full.

20 naked people chasing a water truck with a bar of soap is one of the common sights at Burning Man.

Wasn't suggesting naked as there are children around.
