any ideas on spring ride southern fried freeride?

[GIL]

ANOTHER GREAT IDEA!!!

I never make the Orange Beach race because it is the weekend before the 'GA RIDE'. We could really blow out the Orange Beach race and have about 250 competitors in AM FREESTYLE!!!

I dont think anybody is forgetting your ride, it is all over the site!!!!!!

The SF freeride (Lanier/Riot Ride) dates back to 2002. It is a tradition to have a ride in GA. Right now it is up in the air........ there is nothing wrong with having more rides in different locations.

personally, I prefer smaller "Un-organized rides"

We can have smaller unorganized rides here anytime there is water,the problem is getting enough campground space,it fills up pretty well after May here,there are plenty of hotels and fast food places in ALEX CITY which is within 10-15 minutes of the campgrounds though.The lake here is beautiful,the water is clean and deep and I am sure Ican come up with some boats to make wakes.My Speedster puts out a pretty good wake and I have friends with larger boats that would show up if I ask them too.

Please don't go for a March date, the Lone Star Freeride is always in March. This year it is March 14 - 16. You are all very welcome to come on down to the beach. Can you try for another month so we could still possibly come to your ride?

I don't think that would ever work that lake is way to busy and [EVIL]water patrol [/EVIL]would never alow it.

Heck yeah they would. Rides don't need to be complicated.
People + Skis + lake = ride KISS

 

[Mark44]

people ski lake?

I think you forgot a little G7 for some of the crew!

Ozark Invasion--- could be a huge ride. It's in the middle of every thing, big lake, lots a waves, and I think the WATER-PATROL have been cool so far. They even towed a sunk ski back last year and didn't bother any of the other riders.

somebody call the ball.

Yep... when and where?

I think we could do a medium to good ride at Lake Norman. Stutts marina could hold a good amount of people, I could get CS Performance to put in on it and Griff maybe Red Bull, just thoughts, the race at Stutts went good I think we can do something if people are interested. Great location, middle of the east coast good for northerners and southerners.

 

[Jawbreaker]

LKN could be a good option... Are ALL of the lakes in GA dry?:thinking:

 

[WFO Speedracer]

Why not several smaller rides instead of one large one?

I know everyone wants to go to a good freeride. I think even though it would never be on a set date, I think a Mardi Gras Freeride would be so much fun, and an excuse for everyone to make it down to Mardi Gras. Here are the dates for the next few yrs. I would love some feed back on who might be interested in coming for it.

Upcoming Mardi Gras Dates:

2009 February 24
2010 February 16
2011 March 8
2012 February 21
2013 February 12
2014 March 4

Count me in for a Lake Norman ride.

A mardis gras freeride would be cool. Maybe even in mobile so it is more family friendly.

And no, all the lakes in GA are not empty. Full pool in Macon, GA. We would just have to have the alcohol on the down low.

To get an idea of the venue on LKN maps.google.com Search " 35.543131,-80.894308 "

Also Check out Ronny's gallery from the 06' tour, he has a few snaps of the area

every year this topic comes up.......... Alcohol

Why, why does it have to be a big deal, you dont drink when you are riding. Go to a bar or restaurant and drink there.

howzyomomandem?

set it up - I'll be there. Mardi Gras 2009!

 

[WDKfan]

I think a med size ride at LKN would be great

 

[BROSS]

If we get to use stutts it could be as big as we want, we can make it happen, maybe smoke a pig for food, lets do something, alcohol is fine at stutts i'm shure.
