that sounds awsome Grizzly, I've ridden up there before on a quad and there is some great terrain (if you like hills....)
bit too close to safari for me to go though.

There has been a few enquiries regarding the amount of distance to be travelled , on both days , and as a further clarification , this is an approximate . the reason being is to allow for people to stop and take pics and a few short rest breaks and brag moments.

If anyone has ridden in hilly and rocky terrain wil know that sometimes it is not fast travelling , i can assure you that this will be enjoyed, as many hours and days of pre trip riding and scouting has been done to guarantee an excellent ride .

There are a few other bonuses that will also be a piece of mind to riders as to the legality of the rides , this will all be granted upon riders submitting there interest and payment.

A lot of work has gone into the setting up so as this event can go ahead , and if is successful , future events will also be considered.

The ride is one that wont be forgotten in a while and even though it is scheduled for fathers day, how about you guys put a stop to the normal pair of socks and ask for this trip from your partners instead.

This rally will have a weekend sanctioned permit this permit is at a cost of $50.00, therefore alllowing the use of quads legally on tracks without retribution from and thus not being able to be caught for being unregistered.

This is a great oportunity to be able to ride with a great bunch of guys and gals, places are filling .

Also there has been a few enquirys as to availability , yes you can bring your partner even if she does not ride ,and will be at a reduced cost pls enquire

would be a good training ride for you cowchaser, but i would hate to see you launch off a mountain at the speeds you ride.

It will be an awesome ride and with no retribution from authorities
