Wow! I get to go riding the day after Thanksgiving! It's been many, many moons since the Big Blue Polaris has left my 30 acres! I really can't wait to go. My brother in law is driving down, which is OK with me, but strange, because I really can't remember a time when I didn't drive or wasn't the one who did the inviting instead of being the invitee. No matter, any day of riding has got to be better than not riding.
We are going to The Wayne and leaving here at 5am, way too early to be up when you don't have to get up. I'm normally up by 4:14 am or so during the week anyway so it shouldn't be too bad, providing I don't eat too much turkey!
Apparently there have been some changes to the trails and parking lots down there, part of the Obama "spend our money on things you probably shouldn't be spending money on right now while money's kinda tight" plan. Most likely it has the big green road sign and all. I have not seen it yet, but will have a full report when I return.
I hear the temps should be in the 30's, so it shouldn't be too bad with the Carhartt's on.
Anyway I will have to scrape up the $12 for a pass and another $30 or so for gas and food, but hopefully I will have some "extra" money after the house payment!!!
Riding my Scrambler is one my favorite things to do, but with $3.00 gas, a tow vehicle with 220,000 miles and a leaky rack and pinion unit, any far away trips are kinda iffy right now. Fourwheeling is truly in my blood. I have owned at least one for the past 20 years or so and it has been an adventurous time that has taken me such places as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Read my blog and you can see what I wrote about those adventures!
Anyway happy Thanksgiving and I will post more next week!
