Hey: Not to take anything away from Jeff, who is a "damn good rider", but the "Whoops" he was refering to, on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the most dififcult, were 3's, maybe some 4's. There are a few short sections of whoops connecting the routes. But the Sand Whoops Jeff rode yesterday, were not your typical South Jersey whoops. Also it rained the day before we rode, making the sand firmer. (Easier to ride)

Having said that, the ride is still designed for expirenced riders.

That is a great ride report, and a really good route for us north east guys. I wanna do it.

Bump.....

Over the years, have the majority of people staying at the Hotel or found some other place for Camping?

I understand the "formerly" Something Inn will serve as the event location? What is it now if we want to go ahead and make a reservation for those dates.?

Thanks

Jeff

Hey The Hotel we stay at was formerly a Ramada Inn, now it's called the Hammonton Inn. I spoke to the manager, the same guy we've been dealing with for the last couple of years and everythings good to go. You can make a reservation by phone, or soon there will be an online option.

IMHO the hotel usually cost about $75 per night for 2. thats $37.50 each. The dinner Sat night is pretty good and and less than a mile down the road.
Why try to save $20 camping when you can be at the center of the activity,and have a hot shower when your finished. We work out a late check out option with the Hotel for sunday, it's just less hassle, more fun.
IMHO.

I'l post some contact info this coming week.

The ride report Joe mentioned was posted by Gregor, a PB300/500 regular. We were planning on having ride reports from Morocco, Germany and The Hero's legend ride. I'm sure we can find room for Gregor if he wants to share his adventure.

Looking forward to another great ride!

Thanks for the hotel info. Jack.

Just made reservations online with a Monday checkout. The prices were $79 for Friday night, $89 for Sat. night and $69 for Sunday night. Perhaps we can work out a really late check out option for Sunday when we get down there.

When do you think registration will open for the event?

Looking forward to the ride.

Jack : Thanks for the Info. Just downloaded new form. Will get it in the mail ASAP. And Reservations already confirmed at the Hammonton Inn.

Still Planning on running this on the 1000 Vstrom. New Front Suspension just arrived.. Also Raised the rear end by 1-7/8" Should give me a bit more ground clearance I so desparately need with my Fat Ass riding Off Road.

Really looking forward to this event!!!!
