PLAN B: Frank Raines on Sat APR 16

[Letterman]

Wow Chuck I forgot about those videos. I may be in. I have to help someone move it the am but it only takes me 45 min to get there. So it all depends on when I get done etc.
For those who haven't been to FR it is fun but not super challenging. There is a creek bed that is dried up a bit most of the year (the videos) and many dirt roads that are swamped with dirtbikes, quads, and buggies.
Also it costs $2 to get in.

Lots of watter there now:

It can be very chalaging depending on what line you take:

and it will now cost you $5 to get in

Ok, just got off the phone with the park district, Frank Raines will be open this weekend. Some of the park is still closed off due to a fire that burned the canyon 2 years ago. Looks like we are all go for Saturday.

I suck at planning a run. So just want to say thanks to all for being flexible on the location.

See you all on the trail!

Bryan

Hi all - I got word on your run tomorrow from a fellow ROC club member.... I have never been to Frank Raines and I was wondering if I could join your group for the run?

If that's okay, please let me know where everyone is meeting up and anything else I need to do?

thanks,
Shelly

Disreguard the PM,


So around 8:15 in Firebaugh, it works for me. I think Scrappy would like to go even earlier.

Come on out. You are welcome to join the run. Plan is to meet at the main gate at 11:00. People will be showing up earlier than that so have a look around if you are early. Look at the first post in this thread for directions and park info. Just make sure to pay your money at the gate. It is self service, but the rangers have been known to check for payment envelope stubs.

Oh, and bring some food and drinks for the big BBQ.

We'll see how many rigs we get and make a plan once we get there. First thought is to guide a run so the stock or close to stock rigs can have some fun while the rest of the group runs the creek trail. The creek trail can be run with 31's, but skid plates and rock rails are recommended.

Anyone have a seat available? My trip for this weekend was cancelled and my Jeep is not even mall ready at this point. I can drive to the park if none of the locals have a seat.

Well, me or FarmerMatt might be able to help.

That would be great Chuck, will keep an eye out. Just looked around the house and can bring some spicy Italian sausage, chips/salsa, and a 12 pack of Modelo. I have a pack of hot dogs and few frozen pre-made burger patties also if there is a need. Don't have any buns around though.

You're welcome to ride out with me. I'll have my 2 boys, but the other seat will be open. I'm out near Firebaugh on Ave. 7. Give me a call 706-8627 & I can give you directions out here.

BTW, All you had to say was you worked for Canandaigua... :laugh3: We deliver a lot of grapes to Mission Bell.
