To bad you're so far away! We always say "the more the merrier" and this was a great way to bring riders together! Who knows maybe you could make the 5.5 hour hike next year?? I will definatly be posting more on this event on this site for next year so keep your eyes peeled months in advance!

I'd go on the next one if you guys don't mind a jet boat following you ... hey ... i could hold the beer!!

Ya ill find out more and see if they'll allow it im sure they will, we had 2 boat follow us incase someone broke down of ran out of gas and the police boat lead and coast guards scattered all over but another boat especially being a jet boat would probably be fine

Sounds like fun, what kind of riding is it?

its sort of an endurance type run everyone just rides together, its not a race and we rode about 30 miles
