        See that was easy! OH it is.... I am currently just south of there in eastern KY. The roads here are awesome. Sort of like WV though, with lots of houses close to the road even in remote areas.

                        True but Dean if you'd attend an XSive Riders rally down here you could have that camping option...

                          In Ohio, there is always a lake of some kind relatively close which will have a camp grounds. It is a "cottage" industry...so to speak.

                          I have not been through the area that is planned myself, but, QRFan lives a hop skip and a jump from there and may know half the roads better than I know the back of my hand.

                          Now, to see what I have to do to arrange a holiday weekend away on the bike. Gave up a pint of blood last week, and plain out of spare ribs.......hmmmm
                          Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

                          When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

                            Yea, I've been to the last six Phil, and have yet to see a tent. Problem being, that pesky period of time getting between the parking lot and the camp spot if ya know what I mean.

                              You guys don't travel west enough. There is always a camping option for Colorado and California rallies. About 1/3 to 1/2 of attendees generally camp. Same was true for Revelstoke, Olympia, Pipe Springs, Spearfish, Bozeman, and some other rallies I could mention.

                              Put me down for camping.

                                Lots of camping with my Honda buddies throughout the East. I have to get out your way Jerry. Started a big trip West last year and it lasted all of 2 days. Talk about disappointed..Maybe next summer.
