1st Annual VA Turkey Crawl - November 26th

This trail run will be a chance for everyone to get together, meet new jeepers, and mainly clean the trails of all trash and debris. Since the locals there allow us to wheel, the least we can do is clean the mess from others so that the trail remains open for everyone to enjoy. Plus this will give us a chance to let the newer people get some experience. If I counted correctly I think we have around 12 people who are new to wheeling.

We will be doing this trail from the Bottom to the Top. Due to the size of our group we will "play it by ear" with doing the run back down for camp in case it gets to dark when we finish the first run. There were multiple camping sites on thea top end so it shouldnt be an issue finding one.

We will be communicating on Channel 4 throughout the trip.

Well the Turkey Crawl was a blast! I had a real pleasure meeting you guys and just hanging out around the fire. XJsportG thank you for everything you did today! I had to stop everyone before we left big levels because I had a bout 3 different lights on in my dash panel possibly related to my brakes smoking. If you've got picture please post them here- http://www.facebook.com/groups/141648729271514/ . This way everyone can see them since this event was a mesh from 4 different forums. Thank you for showing up and for those of you couldn't make it feel free to join the facebook group so you can view the pictures and videos.
