Near Troy, NC. It's North East of Charlotte.

You have the Gulches right there in your back yard

There are basically different skill sets of trails at you Re:. As someone mentioned above may you have Gulches in your backyard.

If you want to find out you are welcome to come with us to URE Saturday. I realize it's a haul for you however we have some say they are coming from Virginia and Florence South Carolina.

Looks like it's going to be a great turnout and we would like to have you join us.

Looking forward to meeting you guys on Saturday!

Meet me at Eldorado’s Outpost at 9am or at one of the meet up locations to ride in together. Remember the times mentioned are push off times!
North Lake and South Charlotte will meet up with the Concord group.

Northlake
McDonald’s on Harris Blvd at 485 at 7:30am

South Charlotte
Chick-Fil-A at Stonecrest shopping center at Rea Rd. and 485 at 7:30am

Concord
BoJangle’s on 601 off Hwy 49 at 8:00am

It looks like our group has doubled since the last time I posted an update. Upon arrival at the Outpost we will need to split up into groups based on trial skill levels. Let’s try to do this as quickly as we can when we arrive.

Let’s plan on meeting back at the Outpost around 12:30 for lunch. I would expect not everyone will be able to make it back by that time however it’s a target. When your group is done you can hit the trails again.

For those of you with CB’s I plan to use channel 16 but it will depend on the amount of chatter.

**** NOTE ****
Even though we are going to meet back at the Outpost for Lunch I encouraged to bring your own lunch and plenty of water in case you don’t make it back in time.

If any of you have not been wheeling before please let me know so that I can make sure you are paired up with someone that has.
**** NOTE ****

If you have any suggestions please feel free to chime in here or give me a call, my mobile number is listed below. I have also included a picture of my Wrangler so you can find me.

Still planning on being there Sat barring last minute work scheduling conflicts; I haven't been to URE since opening weekend in April so I imagine the trails have eroded somewhat since then.
I'm gonna try and hit the shooting range later in the day if it's not too crowded unless the weather turns sour.
