Wow what a great meeting! Congrats MTRA Mt. City you are now officially a chapter of the Mountain Trail Riders.

I was planning to go to the meeting, but it looks like the 30th is the 5th Thursday.....

Guess I'm too late this month. Looks like the next will be Sept 27th, but the fundraiser will be on Sept. 22nd, the Saturday before.

Right?

hey glennr we will be having our regular club meeting at Pardners bbq in Piney Flats on Sept. 6 at 7:00 pm if you would like to attend a meeting before the picnick on the 22. We will cover the same topics

[GlennR]

Sounds good. I'll try to be there. BBQ sweetens the deal.

That's a good ways from here. I'll have to dust off my street bike. She's been feeling neglected lately...

Btw, there's going to be a 4 day ADVrider ralley in Hampton, TN next May. I'll be leading one of the group rides to show them some of the great trails we have. There'll be folks riding in from all over.

It's perfect timing for the opening of Doe Mountain.

Glenn, can you get us some more info on the Hampton ride? I'm sure we have some members who would love to participate!

[GlennR]

Sure, here you go.

I was hoping you guys would be interested. And hopefully you will show me some good to add to the group rides I'll be leading.

Actually, I think that the more group rides offered the better, so the groups will all be smaller. Maybe some of you guys might offer to lead some rides? Think about it. I'll ask the "rally boss" how many groups, what days, group sizes, what type (trail, gravel & backroads, street, mixed, etc...) is usually the most popular.

Since I'm leading a trail ride, the rally boss told me to be very explicit in describing the requirements or I'd get beginners, and guys with bald tires wanting to ride along. That's why I used "Fast Paced", "Fresh Knobbies", and "Lightweight" in the descipition. Guys will coming that have never ridden gravel roads.

There will probably be a lot of "adventure bikes" GS's, 990's, V-stroms, etc loaded down with camping gear. So, I'm assuming they'll mostly want to ride a lot of gravel and backroads.

I'm pretty sure some won't even ride much at all, cause they've just spent 8 hours in the saddle and are here for the Beer & BBQ.

I've never been to a rally, so I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

See ya'll on Thursday,
Glenn

Randy
