I will be bringing at least a Nissan Frontier half bed full! Should be enough for 1 night!
Going to be a cold night...y'all going to take shifts in keeping the home fire burning?  :D

But the high on Saturday is now predicted to be 47.  That's better than the 42 in an earlier forecast. ;D

Now that is the kind of optimism I like to see!

I am heading to cycle gear tomorrow to pick up some Freeze Out glove liners! Post up here if you want me to pick up something for you!!

And the sun will be shining. Looks like a good day to ride. I'm hoping I can manage to ride a little.

You guys coming from Bham, I-65 is the quickest, but coming though Guntersville on Hwy 79 is a nice drive and only 5 minutes longer.

Just remember "the weather outside is weather!" Let's Ride!

Thanks to johnny being a great person, I will be there Saturday as well!

What is on the menu for foods? Hollytree is 25 minutes from gurley, which I believe is the closest gas, food, and grocery. Is that right johnny?

Are we cooking over the campfire? Someone bringing a grill? Picking up food from Hardees(your only option)?

I plan to bring some sausage and a big fork to cook over the fire. I should have a couple extra. I will be bringing a camp stove (not a grill) to cook some eggs and bacon for breakfast burritos Sunday if you decide to camp.

Saturday lunch will probably be tuna packets and tortillas!

Gurley is about 15 miles from the park. 15 minutes on my Harley. 

Gurley has an Auto Zone, 3 gas stations/stores, Piggly Wiggly, Dollar General, Hardees, Subway and a decent Mexican restaurant.  Joe's Pizza is about 17 miles(Woodville area) from the park and they have really good food, but only 2 tables. Best to do take out from there.

If yall need a grill, I can bring mine for you.

David DoubleEX

Thanks johnny. Forgot about subway and didnt know about Mexican.

Ok, we don't want to go anywhere for lunch. Thats prime riding time. It'll be warmer and the sun is out, so lets plan to eat whatever we have there for lunch. I will probably grab a sub that morning on my way and eat it for lunch.

I'd vote to go eat for dinner. Perhaps the Mexican place? We will figure something out. Play it by ear!

We ate at that Mexican place a few years ago after a day of cold dual sport riding in the area.  It was pretty good.  If you guys want to eat there we could set up a flash mob and maybe get a few other people to show up.

I'll be there for sure tomorrow morning. (I'll meet y all put there around 9) cant stay to camp but will ride most of Saturday. And whoever has that other Africa twin we need to go ride some time! I'm taking my YZ250 to hollytree though. I wanna try the gnarly stuff.

That would be me. Looking forward to it!

Sort of "up in the air" for me about making it to the ride tomorrow.
