Howdy all,

Just signed up and looking forward to riding..

I had to do a "Restart" from an XP1K as I got a little carried away and jumped into the middle of the whole rig setup so now going back to square one. The Truck..

Hopefully will have an ACE in Sept and eventually a Truck Camper at which time I'll be on the road looking for rides...

So, for now, just lurking and looking at areas.. Once I get the Truck & ACE, i'll be going out, maybe motel overnights or camping in worst case scenario, I hate Tent camping so it's really going to be a good reason to "Tent Camp" hehheh, but I can... LOL... sigh, if I have to ...

But?
Will be interested in overnight trail rides.. pretty much like backpacking with 45 horses (45hp).

fun..

Oh, yeah, I'm a "ROG"... (Retired Old Geezer/Goat) so time is running short...


FYI - And just to clarify:
Meanwhile, my current Rig config is going to be:

Truck - RAM 5500 Crew Cab, Cab-chassis, 4x4 Diesel, Long bed for Flatbed
Camper - Arctic Fox 990
Flat bed - Alum 10' Silver Lake mfg (http://sledecks.com/flat-beds/dually-flat-bed/)
Buggies: Polaris ACE 570 and eventually another XP1k 2 seater with enclosed alum trailer.

Note:
Alum flatbed for carrying Polaris RZR XP1k and smaller ACE from the campsite to a staging area if needed. Will tow a small enclosed trailer for said Buggies.
Not there yet, but getting closer...
Thanks...

Thanks all (I didn't get the "notice" of thread updates until just now, probably my settings)

Anyway, thanks for the welcome and looking forward to 'lurking' heheh, till Sept that is...
I do follow the ACE forums and the PNW Facebook page for anyone in the PNW, it might help...

Hard to tell without the "Locations" identified.. could be next door or in Key West, FL.. heheh.. fun..

I like Evans Creek (https://plus.google.com/photos/108683042376142967861/albums/6090713166533832705)

More technical than wide open, sounds like you've done it before... I like it..
