Wave Rave 2008

[Hogggman]

The beach is cool at night but NO FIRES we got busted for that last year. We actually walked down and somebody had one going they were jetskiers so we started talking next thing we knew the cops were standing there

 

[Hogggman]

Last I heard bruins was setting this up and was lookin for helpers. I will help however I can from 4 hrs away

 

[XFT LOU]

Last year the camp ground supplied the guards. In advance I was notified since the camp ground was full, we pay for a gaurd. That is the Townships policy and we'll respect all of there rules. Thanks Lou

They don't really post on the site anymore....don't worry, it will be huge like last year!

:sneaky:

well im thinking they need to start posting on this topic cause we need to blow this thing up get some more people from further away, some dates that kinda stuff, they dont need to reply to anyone or whatever just give the info and log out

 

[Bruins]

We will be going to the township meeting again this year. More info to come, I beleive the dates are set, CGracing is the promoter of this event, I'm helping cause I live closer and I'm willing to go the township meetings. We need donations for the raffle, new stuff, nothing like, "here's a used piece of turf!" nothing like that!

Call your buddies from around the country and tell them about this ride, lets get this thing going again and get it huge.

Also, remember we are guest at this park, so we have to play by there rules. All in all they were pretty cool last night the security guards were doing there job enforcing the rules, like or not. I didn't hear of any one getting kicked out or that the cops were called. To my knowledge we are still planning this event at Claybanks. If others want to plan another ride at another park feel free, that just means more people see what a great area we have in mid to northern Michigan!

One more thing and the most important thing People from the township are watching this website and thread, so Please stop bashing Claybanks and Please stop telling people what we should and should not do to the security guards. We on the boards realize that your joking, but others may not think it is to funny.

Who nows maybe in the next couple of years we could lease the whole campground and be a little more relaxed on the quiet hour rules. But for now we have to live with in there guide lines.

There are very few campground on the beaches of lake Michigan and even fewer that will let 60+ jetski's ride right from there beach and park on the beach.

Come on guys they don't even make those things any more, so were a dying bread! LOL

Since everybody hates the steps anyway ,and most of the riders are athletic people , I suggest a race to the top of the stairs , timed event , one at a time ,anybody over 50 years old gets a 1 flight of stairs handicap,winner gets a case of beer or something ! '' btw nobodys 50 ''lol

I' m 50 and don't need the one flight handicap, but I would prefer a nice bottle of wine!:headbang::bigok:

 

[Hogggman]

Yeah since there is no GA ride this year this is the ride to come to. This is a beautiful piece of beach on clean fresh water with surf. The campground is a little rustic and the steps suck but it is a really nice ride. We try to get there 3-4 times a year.

 

[Fro Diesel]

Bruins, thanks for all your hard work on this event. :arms:

I can't wait for this event, even if they have the security guards again it wasn't bad at all. I just hope the wedding party isn't there again...they were loud and got the benefit of the doubt from the security guards. :smashfreakB:

I am going to try to get some more people up there from my kzoo group adn maybe i can convince x2rags and x2addit to come up and ride too. As far as the campsite...i don't think we can find anything better. i didn't worry about leaving the skis on the beach. the setup is rustic and unique, the quintessential lake Michigan camping spot


The step race is an awesome idea Frank....let just keep it to one at a time...otherwise that would get crazy:crutches: I better start training.

Thats the reason i suggested the step race THONG !, I was hoping to channel some of the ''destructive energy'' into something less destructive thereby costing less $ in the long run ! ...LOL ! And ''FWI'' if you make it Ill buy the wine !

 

[fwi]

The only problem with that staircase is the steps are too long and there are too many landings.........rest areas for fatsos?
It should be just one single staircase, straight up with short steps!
:headbang::biggthumpup:

:headbang::biggthumpup:

your not supposed to stop ! there are benches along the way too but that doesent mean you can use them LOL . its one continous full throttle sprint 120 to 140 steps i think . BTW :you have a free invitation to run it when you get here . sounds like your a shoe-in !

 

[fwi]

Shoe-in...that's funny!:stooges:
btw, I have been there for the last 2 years, my biggest problem is launching at that place north of there and having to ride/walk my ski for 1/4 of a mile, in 3 inches of water until you get to the big lake!!:banghead:

Maybe there should also be some kind of on water competition, like a timed slalom event, where each rider gets to race against the clock on a buoy course.
Different classes, stock, unlimited, pro, novice...., whatever.
Riva Yamaha has done this for years in Key Largo FL. always fun, always a ton of people and awards for the top 3 in each class, bragging rights...etc
