Who is ( was ) Matt Johnson? Mean no disrespect, just curious.
Looks like fun if it isn't too wet or hasn't rained recently. Been dirt bikin out that way before and it's nice. Might try and make it if the weather looks decent, just stay over in the camper.
Capt, if you were to go would you be interested in hooking up and finding our own way? If allowed, I prefer not to run in large groups. Kluster F*+c  factor is multiplied accordingly.

On the club site, it didn't say, just the dates on the Memorial run page shows he wasn't more than a teenager.

Sure, We will see if we can break into smaller groups.
I have been on these type runs before, 25 vehicles start out, loose 1/2 at the 1st obsticle, and the rest die off as fast a
the cast in a Sci-Fy movie, and you get down to a half dozen that finish.
I also know what you mean, 25 vehicles all bunched up, newbies running right up the guy in front of him's Gas Pipe and not waiting to see if he gets over the top, now they are both jamm'n 1/2 way up the hill, no room to back down ..........etc.

But that some of the fun of it ALL.

Also, ran into Suzuki Mike & his wife tonight, they are thinking of coming too. I plan to call Charlie & his Dad This weekend
to see if they want to bring their Sammys.
