[ridered3]

Golden Mountain Park in Sparta, Tennessee is opening back up for it's first ride since 2018 during the last weekend in July! Weekend is being brought to you by WOD (Wide Open Design) and SFWDA.

New owner of the park is a dirt track racing guy, so was on the originally didn't care about the offroad side until semi-recently. Spent lots of time helping clear trails back when this place first opened and can't wait to see this place back open.

For sure! I always carry extra cash on wheeling trips for that exact reason (others without cash or without enough cash) and charge a very reasonable transaction fee of $0 per transaction.

Fuck yea, no SXS!

Fuck yea, no SXS!

Announcing that only a few days before event was both surprising, but also on par with all things Southern in terms of communication.

 

[ridered3]

Fuck yea, no SXS!

That didn’t last long…SxS are now allowed just not ATVs.

Haha. I was surprised when I read the no SxS thing since this guy was from the old board and works at WOD. This is his personal RzR buggy.

I forgot about him! My friend bought a hs9500 off of him on the old board. Wasn't there a build thread on that buggy at the old place?

I don’t believe there was a thread for that particular one on the old board but he’s built a couple of them now. It’s a work of art.

Anyone else from here panning to go sometime this weekend?

I know Slander will be there so hoping to bump into him while there since I was lame last weekend…

Golden mountain ride this weekend

I didn't want to create an event in the ride section as it's not my event and I think this section gets more eyes anyway. Who's going to the Golden mountain ride in TN this weekend? Anyone down for an irate meetup?

We will for sure meet up!!
