Smusleh has asked me to take the reigns this year, due to his work schedule. So here is the official ride info:
Freestylefest 2014 will be held on October 12th.
Where: Bolles Harbor in Monroe, MI. (AKA "The Hothole")
When: Sunday - October 12th, 2014
For those that dont know, the Hothole is a small area of water that the powerplant empties there cooling water into. This keeps it unseasonably warm through cold weather. This is usually one of the last chances to ride in Michigan. Don't worry about it being cold the water temp there is enough to keep you warm!
Freestylefest is all about meeting new people, talking about riding and maybe learning from the experience. And above all...being safe and having fun.
I'm sure there will be a couple boats at the hothole for us to do some wake jumping as there is every year. Just remember to be safe.

DIRECTIONS
Take 75 to the Laplaisance Rd. exit (#11). From there go straight across Laplaisance Rd. onto Waters Edge Dr. Follow that back to the parking lot and that is where we all put the skis in. From there just ride out of the no wake zone into Lake Erie and stay far far far away from the edge because of real thick seaweed, and then go straight into the Hothole. (DO NOT cut the corner, you will bottom out!!!) You can't miss the tall powerplant tower.

In the past years a few of us usually meet up for breakfast the morning before the ride at 9:00AM. Comment on here if your interested in Breakfast and we can work that out.
- We usually meet at the Big Boy located off I-75 South at Exit 15 Dixie Hwy, Turn right, and Big Boy is on left side about 50 yards from the exit. Can't miss it.
Roll call...Please post if you are going participate in this freeride. Also let us know if you are bringing a Boat as we could use some for fuel cans and scissor stand hauling.
