Hi guys. When Bald starts up we meet out there every Tuesday night. 6-10. We also get together and go to Smiths point a couple times a season.

If anyone is down for the trip we go to Big dogs offroad June 3,4,5 in VA. Its sick and very, VERY technical.

There is No Hot Water street, no 112, no mud pits on LI GOT IT?

No. Which Beach. I was down at Smithspoint and they said the whole beach is open except for some of Burma rd. You have to drive the beach to cut 3 to get to the inlet.

I dunno, been out to Demo twice this year already, the surfers were out in full force.... On my way out last weekend, there was a guy in a van checking out permits and equipment. Thought they waited till after Labor Day to start checking.

Yeah if you go during daytime hours in the summer they will have someone in a booth check permits and equipment. Usually just ask me if I have everything and don't look.
 
#84 ·
i went yesterday and there wasn't anyone checking when we got there but when i was leaving there was a parks truck but the guy was just sitting in it he wasn't checking anyone

Yeah they took away the hut and now he sits in a truck... Guess he was on break. :laugh:

Smiths is at the south end of William Floyd Pkway. LIE exit 68. It is a Suffolk county Park. I think you need to be a Suffolk Resident and have a Green Key card ($24.00 for 3years) Beach permit ($93 per year) Which is good at any of the Suffolk County beaches that you can drive on. http://www.co.suffolk.ny.us/Home/departments/parks/Off%20Roading.aspx

Lets Make This Happen!!!!!

($24.00 for 3years) Beach permit ($93 per year) THATS ALOT OF MONEY a year for no trails no mud and damit no rock piles!!!!!!this is what im saying!!!!!

Go here to let me know if this will work LIJEEPS.freeforums.org I want to start a club and this is where we can start...

Longisland needs some sick trails and we have the land to have it!!!!!! all we need is a Registered club with enough members and with the sponsers as well we can make this happen.... we will also get the support from other clubs...

with the beaches be made for fishing and bathing we need to end this fight with our selves and get our own place to play!!!!!

Im talking wal-mart,auto zone, or ice cream stand parking lot jeep nights all over longisland so one will be close to everyone!!!!!

Sick Trails with different levels of experence from family day to crawlers.... and hell why not a rock pile!!!!

We deserve this and we have enough jeep owners to do this...

LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cheers2::cheers::tea:.......:drool:

I will make this work!!! but i can't do it alone....

thanks again

Smiths is open to the inlet. But you have to ride the beach to cut 3 because some parts of Burma road is closed. Infor from the beach 2 weeks ago. My son was there this past Sunday.

XJ,

this might be a long shot for something like this to work and a huge waste of time.... but i think its worth it if we get a hundred or so members... people come from all over to go to nj for their huge jeep shows.... and we have land here just begging for something.... calverton has a ton of space and they are planning to do something in there... last i heard was a water boat race park and indy tracks.... so they dont know what the hell they want.... and we do....

we got this..... ok maybe but still....

has LIOR and the NEA4WD ever tried to get some trails around here... all i know is past clubs care about the beaches.... and if we get the ball rolling they might just want to jump in to..... oh yea this can be huge!!!!! lol

This is a great idea, but it is just the same as all the 1/4 drag guys trying to build a drag strip for the last 15 years. It wont happen, you mention pine barrens......my god, do you understand that will never be touched? The land out east on LI will have to generate millions in order to have any politicians do anything to it, offroad trails cant generate enough money. Remember, your on Long Island......Once you go a bit past calverton, and a bit south, you hit million dollar mansions, those folk that bring money out there dont want race tracks, off road trails, or any other stuff that is cool, local towns buy thier crap because they have to follow the cash flow. Steve Levy is the guy you need to contact, but coming from a drag racing life......dont waste your time. Take the two hour ride off the island and get real trails.

XJ - I think ive seen your jeep around. I saw your brown twin the other day roll past king kullen. Or maybe that was you covered in mud. If your around Huntington over the weekend shoot me a PM, doing some jeep stuff, bbq, beers n what not if your down.

sweet xj... but check this out.... does anyone know how many acres the pine barrons are???? ok no lie 100,000 acres... bro das huge!!!!!! ok its not all connected and some parks aready own some but still them there is some land to be trailed lol....

anyway.... I'm going to get the paper work for a club and start this off.... if everyone can let friends know send them to Lijeeps.freeforums.org and sign in so I can keep count over the next month or so... if we cant get a nice number of members its over but if things start to roll I can contact everyone all at the same time...

100,000 acres..... WOW
