Denton NC Spring Rally 25-29 April 2018

[DanM7890]

Dang man! Was hoping to hang out with you!

Side note, put in my leave request today and approved. So, hopefully nothing comes up at the last minute to screw with it.

I think the Denton rally is a TON of fun and I almost say better than the GA rally for me due to location and people. Going to miss being around, but I’m still active on the board.

I plan on being there at least Friday and Saturday - OF COURSE it still falls during my work schedule, so I'll have to take vacation. Not sure if the family will be with me or not. I'm in the final stages of body work on the USMC M38a1, so I'm pretty sure I will have it there this year instead of the one everybody knows. Just got to get the clutch changed, gas tank cleaned and lined, carb back from Old Jeep Carbs LLC and installed, and paint/markings done.

Just bring both, I need one to drive too !

 

[wilfreeman]

Would love to, but I don't have anything to haul BOTH on. You know you can drive whatever I bring - I trust you with it.

Might have to take you up on a test drive - always wanted an LMTV. Do you still have a HUMMWV? I could prob talk my wife into one of those easier, lol

I'm new to posting on here but I've been lurking in the shadows collecting Intel for I while lol. After much research I just purchased a 1990 BMY 1990 M923a2. I want to come to the Denton rally to meet people and check out some the awsome rides I here about on here. Anything special I need to do to attend? Thanks

Come on! Just show up, bring a little cash for the gate and some grub. Tent if you want to camp.

 

[djstot83]

Thanks, I'll be there!

Any firm prices for camping? I haven't been there, is there local food n fuel? I might have to come down off the mountain for this!

 

[michigandon]

I forget what campsite prices were. Water and electric sites are more than primitive, of course. Gas stations amd food stores are about 5-10 minutes away.

I will work on a menu this week if anyone is interested

Please PM me if there is anything I can do to help.

I'll be home from the NJ MTA show for about two days before coming to Denton. If anyone needs anything hauled to or from the NJ MTA show (20-22 April) please let me know. I'll be pulling an enclosed cargo trailer......https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showt...CAL-SHOW-THREAD-Info-buy-Sell-trade-Talk-All-)

If I was not antisocial myself the location and people thing might hurt my feelings. I do like the GA. get together but the dirt bikes buzzing around keeps the noise level during the day buzzing. I do like Denton with all the people and cool steam stuff to look at when my ADHD kicks in.

Same here - I like the GA rally and seeing the rest of "our" people that don't get to come to NC. The trail rides are usually awesome too. I'm just don't like hauling a trailer 3hrs to go to a rally that I can usually only attend for 2 days. There are trails about 15 miles away, but I've never taken my jeep on them. Last year Adam talked them into letting him use the train for a night ride - hopefully they will do that again since my daughter and wife are coming this year.

[microjeep]

does anyone have something similar they can bring to Denton so I can borrow?

 

[michigandon]

Closest thing that could offer you is a Weber. Sorry.

 

[microjeep]

Ok here it is, in light of Cabell not being able to attend I will try to take up the slack.
A couple of things,
This is not a commercial operation it's a bunch of guys going together on meals camping, I will not make any money on this if any money is leftover it will go to the rally organizers.

Be patient with me, NOT a chef
Meals will be $5 Each except Saturday dinner $7 child under 12 with adult $3 a meal
If anyone has any allergies or special request please pm me I will do my best.
