Well we'll see what John says about maybe this coming friday,.I'm thinking of making acouple trips with my Truck over to this gravel pit maybe take acouple of you guys with me or whoever goes, and load up my pick up, we can get acouple hundred rocks with 2 trips.

I lugged all 500 and some rocks i have at my house, its not hard if you have a few hands.

Rocks are available anytime we want to pick them. I asked about a loader, but with the arena motocross at VanAndel, all of his equipment is booked. If we go grab them ourselves, he even said don't worry about paying for them.

Let me know what works for a rock party!!!

How about Fri. @ 1pm,.....am i the only one with a truck? at least we can get acouple loads in b-4 dark. it would be nice if we can get some help, it'll go faster.

I can also do it tomorrow, new years day. i dont plan on being hung over,. Its just another day for me.{holiday or not}

I can do it thur. any time, and friday after 1pm maybe arround 2ish

new years day would be good too,..we'd have most of the day. If we could actually get some help Thurs. and Friday after 1pm I think we could have most of the rocks there this weekend

If John can let us in Tomorrow {new years day} i'm good for then. If I can get some help. Plus John needs to show us where exactly to pick up these rocks at.

Just some ideas...............

Thanks for responding so late John,. Ok I'll be there,. I'm gonna empty out my truck, so we can get some rocks,... someone can ride with me, then someone else will have to car pool other helpers.

So were the rocks gotten today? Or are we planning on tomorrow the 2nd at 1pm? I am confused......By the way if we are doing this tomorrow I have a truck as well.

We picked all the rocks that we could today. The rocks were mixed in with dirt that was frozen solid and we had to pic ax them out. John is going to call his source to see if he can take a loader and break up the pile before we go back for more. Right now the coarse is half covered.

Hey guys, man i'm sore tonight. I'm gonna have nightmares about rocks tonight.

I was thinking of going into BFG tomorrow night, friday after 5pm and work on the course.

I can be there to help friday evening, 5pm should be doable, but I might be as late as 6pm. I have other things going on in the afternoon and am not sure how long they will occupy me.

Just a reminder to everyone. We will be having our first "official" club meeting this Sunday, January 4th at 1:00 PM. Please be there if you want to have input into the clubs workings. If you cannot be there please PM me with your concerns or email me at: razr27 (at) yahoo (dot) com. Hope every one had a great New Years Eve!!! :hat:

Ok, we have had some conversation and here is the plan. I will be at the track by 1:00 today. Brian is planning on showing up 3 or 4. We would like to try to get another couple loads of rock. If we drive around the area a bit, I think we can find enough loose ones without having to pick ax them out.

Come Sunday prepared to discuss the merits of using mortar to hold the course together. Since this would be a pretty much permanent situation we have decided we would like the club to give it a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Don't need to discuss or comment here, save that for Sunday.

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make it this Sunday now. I had the day off today and was able to catch up on everything I've been procrastinating on. Unfortunately my speedo for my crawler won't be here until Tuesday so no testing for me.

Hey Keith, I'm working on revising the 4-link setup on my bigger rig and getting it ready as well.

And looky what I scored on Ebay for $125. Man yet another $ pit in this hobby I've found.:thumbsup:

Yeah its pretty cool so far and we dont even have all the rocks yet! We've been having a problem with land slides on some steep areas, but we'll discuss the solution to that at the meeting. other than that, ..... me and shane took just about every line possible, up and down backwards and arround. its gonna be hard but fun. its surely gonna be challenging.
