Best of the Midwest run - ideas on locations

[Roxtar]

I've got an idea for an event I'd call BOTMW.
Basically, it's a copycat of the Best of the West run, where we pick a different venue every year. It'll be geared toward tougher trails and obstacles.
First off, I'd like feedback on what people think of the idea.
Second, I'd like ideas for locations.
Here's your chance to get people to that unknown wheeling mecca you've been talking about.

well

there arent any good midwest trails that i have ever seen..
Tuttle creek in KS could be done with a locked stock rig, the Humps in IA is fun for a day...


but id like to show up...

It's a great idea, although we'd run out of venues after a couple of years.

There's a place in eastern Ohio called Wellsville that I've been hearing about locally. We need to get a Midwest run put together down there.

You guys gotta get away from this smalltime thinking. There's tons of good places to wheel. Doesn't the Midwest cover 1/3 of the states in the union?

Harlan, KY
Natural Bridge, Ky
Windrock, TN
Clayton, OK
Disney, OK
Mission Impossible, IN
Katemcy Rocks, TX (don't know if it's MW, but nobody else wants TX )

There's more, that's just a few off the top of my head. Definately don't call it BOTMW, gotta come up with something different.

I think it is a good idea Brad. OneTon listed the sites I was going to suggest. I'm sure the "glits and glamore" that is with the BOTW will not follow this, but it sure would be a great time.

PS: Yes ... do not call it BOTMW.

BOTMW sounds like an anagram for "Bottom of the World".

I think it's a great idea though.
Oneton hit the nail on the head.

There is NOTHING best in the MW, so just drop it!

OMG you would have to copy the WCGIC!

How about not limiting it to the midwest. Since the western folk have such a large area to claim, why not claim anything east of the front range???? They take everything west of it, seems fair to me. Ultimate Adventure this year looked like a lot of fun and they did some cool trails.

Then lets drop Midwest from the name and get NAC and SEC involved.

South Dakota has some bad a$$ trails!
Who was it, Goatman or Hinkley has their mug all over some clubs pics!

[IntrepidXJ]

i like the idea, and definately would be interested

 

[Bloose]

Great idea.

Would likely show up to one or more event. I've heard there is a good place in MN but have not been there yet. When I get up there if it's any good I'll post info on it.

Could care less what we name it.

How about Hinkleyfest.
Anyone how brings a life size "hinkleydoll" we can burn in effigy gets in free.

I'll personally pay for the lifetime membership for anyone who borrows the mobile mansion and brings it to a MW event.
