TWers, I wanted to pass along some information about a trail ride coming up hosted by the Northern Virginal Trail Riders Club. I have personally never done a big group ride like this before, but I figure you have to start somewhere...and it might just be a blast! I will copy some of the information onto the post and attach a link to the actual flyer. Hope to see you there!
"The Northern Virginia Trail Riders have teamed up with the Optimist Club of King George to bring you a great trail ride and a heart-warming fund raising event! All proceeds will go toward “Bringing Out The Best In Kids” in King George County! Please come out, have fun and support this hard working and worthy organization."
Thanks for posting that event up DCTW. And please repost next year. I print out the flyers and file away so I am able to plan for dual sport rides in the future. Wish more members would post up the events in there area. Thanks again. Capt D.
I'm tryin to get a few friends to do this. I did the district 7 harescramble there. The trails are pretty good and we had alot of fun. My buddies kid did his 1st race and he got a trophy and talked smack to all of us afterwards sayin "you wanna hold my trophy" I hope some of you guy's can make this ride it's gonna be a blast and it's for a good cause.
Looks like we're gettin the band back together and will be there. Lookin forward to a day in the dirt. Now what to ride I sold my Cr 250 and all I have are my TDub or Xt 350 or the TTR 125 I bought for my daughter. Whatever bike I ride it'll definately be a blast.
*NEW THIS YEAR* - "Spring Trail Ride" t-shirts will be available at sign-up for $10 each, with all proceeds (like your event entry fee) going to the local Optimist Club.
The annual NVTR Spring Trail Ride is this Sunday, April 3rd at Eagle Bay in King George, VA, (just east of Fredericksburg). As in years past, all proceeds from the event will go to the local Optimist Club.
This is a great fun family event for riders of all ages and skill levels. We have loops for peewee, novice, intermediate and expert riders. The event is held on very limited access private land. The trails are well maintained throughout the year and are not abused. The event is scored as a Match Trial, where you compete against yourself to ride the most consistent back to back lap times without using any timekeeping devices. Trophies and awards will be given out at the end of the day for the riders with the most consistent laps. Come check it out, you're sure to have a good time!

Wanted to get out for a ride but wasn't able to till later in the afternoon. I decided I would just take a quick jaunt along some local service roads. Definitely wouldn't say it was warm out haha.
I’ve talked before about my frustrations on the overall lack of places to ride in SE Texas, especially considering the size of Texas. But it’s almost all private property.
Well I took a trip to central Texas (near Mason) and found a road that reminded why I bought the T-Dub...60+ miles of...
Whenever I try to get a group together for something, my strategy has generally always been to just post it on all the forums and see who bites LOL. Someone usually does, so I guess it works! Anyway, here's just a quick copy-and-paste from other forums:

Time for me to sketch out the outline and maybe others can hang their photos , videos and comments on this.
