    I'm not familiar with this event. What part of Tn. is Bybee located in & when does it start?

    Thanks. Looks awesome! I'm riding Loretta Lynns spring trail ride the weekend before, so if my fat old arse isn't too sore & the 70 rider limit isn't reached by then I'll give the Slate Creek 500 a try.

    I'm coming with a few friends. Those pictures are really motivating me to get the bike done and start packing. Thanks!
