badassbanshee479 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 drink enough beer by the fire and you dont even notice the cold!! Quote
dajogejr Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 drink enough beer by the fire and you dont even notice the cold!! I have no problems there. We usually stay at a hotel. Of season you can get a room for 3 nights for usually under or around 100 bucks. For a warm bed and hot shower....I'll take it!! I can't think of the name of the place...but it's close, clean, cheap!! They send me a few post cards every year with their specials and rates... Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 sounds good to me!! but can we have fires?? I like to sit by the fire and get poopooed when I am up there. warm bed and show sounds good to though Quote
dajogejr Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 I'm sure we can crash a campground party...then head back to the hotel... Last time I was up, early this season...my shee never made it out of the parking lot....so, my best friend was Al. Al Cohol that is.... :beer: Quote
SvrdRam Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 (edited) This time around we're stayin at the silver sands.....its like 65 a night...... but i have some friends rentting a cabin so where gonna party and drink it up by the fire over there........nothing better that a hot shower and a warm bed....... we use to camp everytime.....but theres something to be said for not having to pack a tent or sleepin bad Edited September 19, 2006 by SvrdRam Quote
dajogejr Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 but theres something to be said for not having to pack a tent or sleepin bad In the rain...often, no doubt... I just switched on call time at work...so barring death or dismemberment, last weekend of Oct. I'm in. We'll probably leave early Thursday morning...get 1/2 a day Thursday, all Friday and all Saturday in for riding! Need to all figure out a meeting spot before we get up there! Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 well sounds like I will be puttin in for some vacation time at work and I will be seeing you up there!! dave if you want we take a big ol inclosed trailer and a quad cab duramax so you could probably catch a ride with us if you want to!!

dajogejr Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 Normally...I'd say hell yes. But, since I just got my RAM, I'm just a little curious how it does on a long trip, etc.... Next year, you, me and Bob will have to make some plans for sure. He's getting his 4 poke back together this weekend. That 570 kit should make it pretty impressive... If Bob ends up crapping out on the dune trip, I might take you up on that, though...meet you at your crib and roll...split the fuel and hotel. We'll see...got 6 weeks still!!! Quote
black sunshine Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 Where the heck is this place, and does anyone have an extra set of paddles I can use if I make a pilgrimage? I go to traverse city often, but its probably not around there is it? Quote

I go to traverse city often, but its probably not around there is it? Mears, MI.... From Traverse city it's roughly about 120 miles south/southwest. Closer for you than it is us Metro-Detroiters... Call David Allan Racing. It's literally right outside the parking lot for the dunes. They **Might** rent paddles, I'm not 100% sure. Quote
black sunshine Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 T.C. ia actually about 5.5 hrs away from me, my sister lives there. Im up here on the shore of Superior!! Thats a haul, I'll have to think about it. Quote
dajogejr Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 WHOAAA...and I thought I had it bad being 240 miles out from metro-Detroit. You'd be a yooper road trooper for sure if you made that gig... Quote
