I just added this to the POR calendar and thought I would stick it here also. I'll update it as time passes, but I would love to have you folks make the trip.

Open to the public, Friday the 9th - Sun 11th, at Badlands Off Road Park (http://www.badlandsoffroad.com) in Attica Indiana. Primary interest is the Toyota folks (no offense meant to any other group), Land Cruisers, 4 Runners and Mini's but ALL are welcome to join us. Check the web link above for camping (Summers Campground) info, the entry fee is $15 per day, with discounts for multiple days. All vehicles must have a flag which you can get there if needed, and everyone must sign a waiver. The have a large parking area for tow rigs and trailers, and absolutely "NO ALCOHOL" is permitted on the grounds.

There will be runs for the wildest to the mildest, although not an organized event, we will have some experienced trail leaders on hand. The wildest run will be limited, and vehicles must be equipped to get in and out without constant strapping across the obstacles. 35" tires, 2 lockers and a winch, with no concern for damage. Other runs (trails) are less demanding.

No registration or limits for this run, but if you let me know that you intend to come and the type of trails you want to ride, I will be able to prepare. That's all, hope to see some folks there!

This looks like a perfect run for me...
Just before the school and soccer season starts for me.

I am 90% sure that I am in.

I'll let Richard, Dave, John, Curt, Dingo know as they don't hang on the board.

Is this ride still a go?

We need some folks to chime in if they are interested. I have heard nothing from the local guys, and I am not going just to go. I am also starting some mods that may take me out of the ride, depends on others to get it back together in time. I'll be watching this thread!

Does this mean Steve will have his winch hooked up this time and have no excuses?? :flipoff2:

I'm not able to attend...unfortunately. Got my nephews wedding that weekend....tho, as Chris knows, I'd much rather swing down there. If for some reason this one doesn't fly Mike, we should start discussing now about getting something going for next summer, working around the event/competiiton schedules. (By then, you'll have a full-blown buggy to compete in and your Cruiser will be retired to trail duties - heh heh)

I AM planning on working the ProRock in late August, and a few of us are arriving Wed night to get in some trails on Thurs/Fri before the competition starts.

I would go if the two of your were up to going but that sounds like a slim chance. There are lots of other rides going in the month of August AND I just got back from there.

Unless others chime in, count me out as well.

I did have a blast down there and will be back soon. If the challenge is cancelled, maybe sooner than later.
