Title: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: Quaddawg on September 13, 2006, 05:00:11 PM
Well, mark them as soon as we set a date.


Jeff, I am voting for the first weekend in November, as the boy has a 4 day weekend then.

What days were you thinking??

What about taking over a small hotel for Saturday night?  Surely there is one in one of the small towns we go through...

Lil'Red said that might sway Duane into going, and I myself am not much of a cold weather camper.. I think we could have a blast if we got a few rooms... whaddya think?? 

I know it's an adventure tour.. but hey... just throwing out ideas.


Lemme know about the dates too..


Cherish those faces Jeff, they grow up ALL TOO FAST!!!

Title: Re: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: LilRed on September 17, 2006, 02:08:21 PM
   Yeah, what's the date?  I think I'm in!  May only bring one Zuk though. 
Title: Re: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: Quaddawg on September 21, 2006, 07:08:22 AM
We need to get the date set, I have folks wanting to come, but they can't plan until we set a date.


And here is one from the "it's a small world" department:


A total stranger (check in stranger!)  walked up to me at my local "hole in the wall" hardware store and asked about the DBAT!!  He said he saw the site and recognized my Zuki. It was cool that someone recognized me and the "Turtle" from the internet.

I think he works at the wooden boat restoration place next to the hardware store.. they do some AMAZING work there...   I don't know what he wheels, but I hope it's the badass looking Rowbinder I see parked there from time to time...

IF YOU ARE READING THIS... Introduce yourself!!

Hey everyone, I'm Mark(the stranger Quaddawg ran into at the hardware store).  I accidently came across your site and specifically the thread about the Daniel Boone Tour accidently over the summer.  I was searching  for info on the Daniel Boone Forest and the Sheltowee Trace to do the same thing you all did in June.  I'm very interested in making this run and was glad to see it wasn't for any one make of vehicle.   After seeing the pics, I recognized Quaddawgs ride and have been waiting to talk to him.

  I've been wheeling in the Livingston area since I was younger than Quaddawg's son with my dad and brothers. My dad's family is from the little town of Livingston and we spent many weekends  in those hills fourwheeling in an FJ40.

My friends, my brother and I try to make a monthly trip to livingston(cromers ridge) off exit 49 where your trip ended.

As Quaddawg knows(yes I run that Scout you seen at the shop)I don't run a top or doors and will do my best to make the run in November, weather permitting.

Hey Quaddawg thanks for the thumbs up on the Binder and our work at the Shop!!!!

Here's a link to our website and recent trips to Livingston(look under recent trips)www.pipsquack4wheelers.com

Its impossible for me to set a date that far away yet due to my work schedule.
Title: Re: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: Quaddawg on September 26, 2006, 06:53:26 AM

that looks like a lot of fun! id love to go if i can ever make my kick fairly reliable. im still having tranny problems, and i might need to cut my fenders some, since i only have a 3" lift and 31's.

Post by: Quaddawg on September 27, 2006, 05:21:01 AM
I have been on harder runs, but I truly have NOT ever had a "better" time on a run.

Something about this trip was just a royal blast.  That is why Pat and I are pushing for a date, we can't wait to do it again.
Title: Re: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: bentparts on October 02, 2006, 06:19:29 AM
Sounds like a good time, I would also like to join in. Where abouts is this? I'll have to figure out how long it would take me to drive there from NJ.

Post by: Quaddawg on October 02, 2006, 03:45:10 PM
LOL, Now I am getting people stopping by my house and asking when it is!!

Seriously...  ;D

We have a Cherokee that wants to join the Scout, and make the run.

Jeff, do you know when we will be able to pin down a date?  Folks need to plan.

I know you are going to Disney World in a couple of weeks, will we know before then?

I do, but Jeff says some of the trails are closed.

I'd hate to get down there, and in the middle of it, and not know how to get anywhere..


I sure don't want to NOT go, I have been waiting for this since spring.

I am sure we can do SOMETHING if Jeff can't make it.

Post by: Jeff@TireBalls on October 18, 2006, 05:15:47 AM
You guys can still do the run, just start south of Slade. I can provide a good starting point for you so that you will miss very little of the trail.
Title: Re: Fall Daniel Boone Adventure Tour MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Post by: 89tintop on October 18, 2006, 07:43:50 AM
