I wouldn't be too worried about what Bg said. Last time I checked he's not the organizer of this event.

Hasta.
EDIT: I was referring to preparedness in terms of tools, miles under the belt, experience coaching noobs, etc.
I just wanted things to go smoothly.
My bad.
DISCLAIMOR: I am having a rotten week, and am decisively more aggro than usual. Bear with me, please.

FWIW, I've run Green at least a dozen times, including a few times on 31s, 2.5" lift, and no rocker protection. I've also been all over that area on my ATV. Just don't want anyone to think I'll be leading them out there to die 
That said, if there's enough volunteers, and others are as or more qualified, I'll be perfectly happy following. I just wanted to help out.

The only requirements for trail leader are, experience in the level of the trail you're leading. Must have run the trail at least once in the past. Would like have them to be able to pre run the trail on the Friday before the event or have ran within' the past few months before the event. To posses good enough people skills where the folks you are leading are having a great time.
Green leader is Lesslimited
Orange leader is BigCountry
Pink leader TBD (any volunteers?)
Trail leaders will be able to pick their tail gunners out of the group on Saturday morning, if you can't find somebody to volunteer before hand.
This is Attica Indiana, not Moab Utah, not the Rubicon, not a big Jamboree.
The is a weekend get together that's sponsored by
.
And on that note all vehicles must meet requirements.

I have an idea, last year there were only 6 rigs that ran orange and about 20 ran green on Saturday. I was only planning on running green but since the group going that way was larger I went orange. Can we try to cut the group size down to about 10 each and stager the leaving times. It seems to be more enjoyable with the smaller groups as long as the "stop and chit chat" is left at a minimum.

Can we still run with the trail leaders if we are going to be there on Friday? Or are we on our own? Not trying to be an a$$, and figured it wouldn't be a problem, but wanted to double check.

see you on friday.
anyone is free to wheel on friday if they want to, but the trail leaders will probably want to zip through the trails unhindered by a larger group if that is possible, just be aware that daylight hours are short, and those guys need to boogie.
