I've been to Haspin a few times over the years, but not enough to lead anyone. I've always followed. If memory serves, it's a bunch of interconnected trails without any real markings,etc. Oh yeah, and muddy as hell.

Our club I just joined has never been there before as a group. www.emptypocketsoffroad.org
We are going February 23rd and 24th. Yeah, I know, 1 week before WF.

The last time I went with a buddy up from Louisville, it was NOT a good experience because some of people thought drinking on the trail was a good idea and were just not what I'd call good trail company.

Anyway, if someone here wants to show how an XJ gets it done and possibly trail lead, let me know.
 
So the XJ is not for sale anymore?

:cheers:

That's correct! I pulled it a few days later. I had a change of heart!

I'm HOPING I can organize another unofficial Turkey Bay run again this year as well.

Glad to hear that Bill!

I'll tell you now, I won't make the TB run. Winterfest will likely be my only outing this year. Maybe a jaunt to Redbird but that'd be it. I'm doing my best to save up so I can make Moab this year.

Indy xj you should consider going to the IFWDA convention in Terra Haute that week end instead. We are going to be wheeling at Redbird on Saturday. This is a strictly invitation only run , open only to those who are participating in the convention. If you are set on going to Haspin try and contact the folks at http://www.fatboysjeepers.com/.
Most of those guys know Haspin very well.

I will be going to haspin on February 16th if you would like to join in. I will be going with greatlakesxj for the winter wheelin fest. This will be my 5th time down there but the first with the xj. You can find more info about the event at greatlakesxj.com.

You had to go and mention a Turkey Bay run. I'm gonna try to resist so I can make Moab. Now if you had said Slade, I would give in in a heartbeat :D
 
I pm'ed him, but I think he's getting his rig ready for WF.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm actually a member of GLXJ, but can't make that run.

Yeah, I know, muddy as hell. I remember wheeling there STOCK in 02.
 
GLXJ.........:roflmao:

What you don't like GLXJ?

Not especially. I got banned a while back for asking the admn/owner/whatever about the scam he was running on the APN's. I was actually in the market for a header at the time. Turns out he was doing the same with rockrails. Claiming that he manufactured all of it himself. In reality, he was just ordering it, and shipping it back out for major profit. There was a big stink about it on JF when it all happened. Bunch of BS it was,.... I'd rather not deal with people like that. As far as I know, he never did own up to it. If he did, I didn't see it. I could care less now though.:wave1: Just not my kind of people.

I still pop in over there every once in a blue moon, just to see what's going on.

Oh, well they have all been real great to me for as long as i have been on there. You should come to haspin on the 16th.
 
EEEK! Guess I won't be reupping my membership there.


No offense to anyone else in GLXJ. I just can't give any more $ in good conscience now.

Anyway, thanks again all. Oh and thanks Haleyes :cheers:
 
damn they dropped the ban hammer on him
