Gilmer Joint TAMOR LHOR Trip, April 27th

[mark]

We have a joint Longhorn Off-Road and TAMOR trip comming up at Barnwell Mountain Recreation Area near Gilmer, TX.

For those of you who don't keep up with the threads, this is an off-road park operated by TMTC and financed by your state gasoline taxes.

While some of our members find the trails to be too easy, most will find something to please them on this 2000 acre trail system.

For details see the Barnwell Mountain site.

Trails range from easy to difficult

See their site for the schedule of entrance fees and membership options.

anyone plan on going up there friday? not that I am, but might want to so I thought I'd give people something to think about and maybe it can be discussed a little further at the meeting.
what are the LHOR boys' plans?

[JB]

I will be going sometime Friday, though dunno if it will be from CS. Looks LHOR found out about our new BBS, guess they don't like us

Grayson and I also just realized that the Texas Rovers club based in Dallas will be at BMRA the same weekend...so that should be pretty funny too.

What time is everyone planning on getting to Gilmer on Friday. I will be up at SMU Thursday and will be leaving from their with a few other Broncos, so if anyone wants to caravan from Dalla area around noon or so on Friday, let me know.

[robertf03]

[JB]

I will let you know when I know tomorrow.

I am plannning to drive to Dallas after class friday night, and then leave from Dallas about 6 am Saturday, Should put me in Gilmer about 8:30. I assume people are planning to stay Saturday night, right? Looks like it is supposed to rain, so things should be a little more challenging.

Just a little FYI for anyone planning on going that hasnt been:

Gilmer is NOT fullsize friendly. TONS of trees everywhere and a good turning radius is necessary. Narrow track helps too.

This is what my day was like there all day...

d a m n Austin, why didn't you just mow that little sapling down with your grille guard

did you end up scraping your paint on any of those tight places?

It looks like I'll be leaving no earlier 4 am sat morning, had something come up so Friday won't be an option. Want to caravan out there?

[AgDieseler]

Sure, we could all leave around 6:00AM.

I just pm'ed you about it I guess while you were posting this

[Jason]

I am way over in Rowlett, almost Rockwall, so I think I am the farthest east. We can all meet at my place if we want to. Flem, are you bringing the CJ? If we want to leave from my place, PM or email me for directions. If not, let's come up with a place to meet.
