I vote spring, give us all a chance to get our rides in and broken in as well as the accessories in and installed.

Also, somewhat selfishly, without doors or front glass it would be somewhat cool at altitude in North Tenn this time of year(for us more temperate southern folk, for you Canadians I know you would be hairy bare chested wearing shorts and barefoot)

Ya. Lets decide on a place and date soon. For many. Work/wife will require a notice for a weekend trip.

Lets say Jan 10th 2014 we need to have a date set. Area can be the north east TN area if we agree.
There are several trails in this area.
I will be able to spend some time looking onto it after this week.

Looking for lots of miles of trails. Also don't want the price to scare anyone away.

I added a few parks and campgrounds to the map in that area. There are website links to most of them.

Ohanacreek, yes that's the place. One of my friends went there Sat. He didn't know I have the pioneer. He has a 750 Brute and he goes there often and takes his camper during summer and makes,a weekend of it.

A place with trail side cabins would be great, it's a little far for me to drag my toy hauler lol but not too far to pull a car trailer with my pioneer!! Windrock park seems pretty legit, 16 hrs one way for me but if we secure a date I'll go ahead and reserve a cabin for my group from Nebraska

@Mpnoonan, That's a drive but would love to have you. We would let you set up a central USA ride if you wanted to. I'm not sure who else is around you.

If anyone wanted to plan a West cost ride that would be kool too.

@ TandT, We are wanting to do it spring so hopefully it want be tooo cold.
But.. then if you your wife is like mine, she would like the heater in June.

I set a goal to have a place and date set by Jan 10th as I must make plans also.

Well my wife is the only girl I know that can lay on the beach in Florida 90 plus degrees and have goose bumps. She will be warm. She has Heated gear that plugs into the battery. That was the first thing that I had to put on the Pioneer before anything else. Believe it or nor, She takes your heated vest with us on a motorcycle ride in the summer. I got her a battery pack that she can put inside it while she takes her walks. Just as long as the wife is happy its a happy life.

There's not much for trail systems around my area plus the further south the better this time of year lol. Like I said I'm totally down to rent a cabin and spend a few days at a good sized riding park with some buddies. Texas, Arkansas, anywhere within 10/15 hours is fine by me as long as there's lodging. If you guys come up with some options and figure a way to vote I know I have a couple more guys that would come along

That windrock park in Oliver springs seemed pretty nice. They have 10 cabins along with campgrounds. Late march sounds like a good time to go as well. As long as there is room available for a Honda SXS group
