07 lanier.... The Ride!

[SJBrit]

I am going to try and get there this year. I just wish there was some surf.

You won't be disappointed - cruiser wakes can be just as much fun, and are easier to jump when you get used to them. The cool thing about cruiser wakes is that they are the same, every time, with plenty of flat water in front and behind :biggrin: Sure, it's not the same as the surf, but it can be awesome nonetheless.

What are the dates as of now?

Go back and read the first post........ No Date as of yet due to conflicting race schedule, we are looking a 2 possible and one date that is an option but the first two will most likely be chosen.......May, either early or later.

Cool. Can someone scout out a hotel? That looks a bit far from sun suites..

#45 on the map

The closest hotel I've found is:

Comfort INN
3469 Branch Rd
Oakwood, GA 30566

(770) 287-1000

It's around 4 miles from the campsite (13 miles by road).

13 miles, that blows.

I don't have any camping gear plus the wife isn't too outdoorsy.

 

[the only couch rider]

do these campgrounds have rv hook ups?

Find some other peeps who aren't too keen on the outdoor life & see what it would cost to rent an RV for the weekend- i'm sure you could probably find a place around Atlanta; that way you could bring your own vehicle & ski, but still be in the campground; don't know, if may be a far-out idea, but may be worth checking into

Gil and Cheryl Williams
Jarrod and Barbara Thompson

Yea, we even saw an RV poop dump and wash station.

Moon, the RV thing does sound interesting.
Might have to look into it and see if one could be rented just for the weekend.

What's the weather like up there in May ?

It would be great if the Lanier ride was moved to begining of May.
May 19 & 20 is the region 8 season opener & region 7 also has a race that weekend.
I'm super stoked for a new location & another kick a$$ freeride

If you type in the address of the campground you can do a search for Hotels. It looks like its only 6 miles to Gainsville which has several Hotels and resturaunts. The red Star on the Map is the site.

3720 Duckett Mill Road
Gainesville Ga 30506
