I got a buddy coming with me this year and we're considering riding DS bikes - DR/XRL 650's.  Is there any offroad on tap besides the "Brown Mtn Beat Down" - home of the vertical rock garden.  

Dan,
Yes there is. last year we rode some singletrack that was doable even on my Tiger 800, Dan B. rode my XR650L on it as well. there was also a couple other Dirt days that we rode some FS roads that were fun. Smola and Frankie rode a Jeep trail that sounded like a good day I want to ride this year. So definitely bring the Doctor 650 and your buddy on the XR. Brown Mountain can be fun if we avoid the Vertical wall of Death.

See Ya soon!

It was hot last time.. We sweated like crazy but made it up fairly drama free.  well no major drama, but I do still have ding in my muffler from that day.  And Scott sprained his finger.  Also DanB's carb kept falling out of his DRZ.   good times!   :drinks:

If I go back there on the 650 it'll just be up and down the big center trail, no rock wall of death.

Iron mountain trail starts right in Damascus was pretty nice last year.. and there is lots more DS riding we just havent explored yet. (but we will)

Once again life gets in the way of fun.  The kids are growing fast and they will be gone before we know it.  So I figure I better enjoy it while I can.  I will return to Boone!!!!  Someday.....

Ride well, my friends.  Have a pint at McAdoo's for me.

I'm planning on making my first Boone rally, and deliver a bike. I'm not new to the roads but never been to any other rally than the one Travis and I had a few years ago. I will be there early because I will need to leave Thursday unless we blow racing off, at nhms? Hope to meet a few of you there and bench race when not riding.

For those attending the ECSR I am getting the 2017 FJ Rally shirts ready to ship out to Dean.

Can I get a head count of those wanting to purchase the shirt so I can ensure I send enough.

Here is the link to the shirt with the prices: http://www.fjowners.com/index.php?topic=16513.msg167402#msg167402

Does anyone have a spare bunk I can rent. I'll be attending Thursday night to Sunday

What's the deal with firewood for Boone?  Nancy K isn't going to Boone.  I have the phone number for "Mr. Eddie" for slab wood if that's what everyone wants.  If I remember it was $300 for a load.  Let me know if everyone wants to do this and I'll get it going.  Shouldn't be more than $15 a head....

Jack,

I'm in for firewood, and I can bring a chain saw.

What's with your avatar?  Are you experiencing some type of alternate lifestyle?  And does Nancy know?  :rofl2:

Very cool.  I've got my Dad's 5th Air Force patch from WWII.  My brother just had his squadron patch reproduced.  421st NFS.
