5th Annual "Nowhere To Be, and All Day To Get There" ride. November 17-19

[klaviator]

Another great event put on by Al and Melony.  They really go above and beyond when they host an event.  Not only is there some great riding but they feed us before and after the ride! 

A few days ago the weather forecast was not looking good.  When I got on the road this morning heading to Vinemont it was lloking pretty gloomy and even rained a little on the way down.  I figured the weather would keep the number of riders down but that wasn't the case.  There was a pretty good crowd feeding their faces when I arrived.  So I joined them.  Biscuits and Bacon!  Thanks AL and Melony.

Getting ready to go.



There were some new faces there, at least for me and some people I hadn't seen in a while.

We had 12 bikes and actually got on the road at the time Al had planned.

Al led us on some nice country roads over to Bankhead.

We stopped at the Flint Creek OHV trail parking area. 



At first only a few people seemed to want to ride it but then we all caved in to peer pressure and off we went.  I haven't done one of these OHV trails in quite a while.  I used to do them regularly when I had lighter bikes like my KDX200.  The heavy KLR is not the best bike for something like this but then I can't really use that as an excuse when some of the other riders had even heavier bikes. 



This must have been quite a story ;D

Good thing the trail was not muddy today:

After Flint Creek we rode some more roads, paved and gravel.



We stopped here to find a geo cache Kyle wanted to find.



There was a really interesting headstone.



The other side.  Somehow I just don't think I'd want my name on a headstone when I was still alive.



A good way to take a nap.



Lunch at Chef Troy's

By the time we finished lunch it must have been close to 3 so some of us headed home to try to beat the weather.  I did manage to make it home with only a brief rain on the way. 



It was a great day.  Thanks again Al and Melony :)

Thanks for taking all the pictures!  Do you mind if I share of these on facebook?  I didn't even realize you taking that one of me with my feet up while we were waiting on Kyle and David.

Thanks! It was a pleasure meeting and riding with you today.  Glad we both got out of the storm before it hit us!

I actually found it very interesting.  Many people would not take their adventure bike on trails like that. 

Thank you for making the effort to record and post video!
