    I may be coming sans Rover depending on how bad Alan up at Cityside tells me it is. I just picked it up, and its got a few issues. How do you think my Volvo 240 will do on the trails?

    even if you don't drive on the trails there are plenty of open seats. If you have a ranve rover classic I have tons of parts.

    Kevin, I went last year and it's a great meet. The offroading is as intense as you'll find in this neck of the woods, but I would suggest it's not really the best place for kids. The ground is pretty rocky in the woods and there are alot of trucks in motion. If it's a slick as it was last year, you really need to keep an eye open for sliding and winching.

    Thanks Terry,, Are you heading up? I will still take her, and if It's not working out I'll just head home.

    Yeah, but I'm not sure which day. I have some friends that want to go sunday, and other that wants to go saturday.
    I'm sure your daughter will be fine. Just keep her close when you're up in the woods.

    I have the only daughter that doesn't like mud! It's only about 1.5 from my house and if it doesn't work out,will came home.

    I hope to see you up there. What do you now about Riley's

    Forrest,

    I am very sorry to hear that and I hope everything is ok.

    If anyone would like to do some rovering this weekend I would be happy to meet up in the south eastern CT area. We could meet up at in a parking lot, ride some trails on the state land near me (legal, fun, challenging, non damaging, took a stock 109 with street tires through it no problem,) and end up with some apple cider and donuts at B.f. Clydes cider mill in old mystic, the oldest steam powered cider mill in the U.S.
    P.m. if interested

    -Rob
