    Graves Mountain Rally, Syria VA August 31-September 4, 2017

    I likely will miss someone, so I apologize for doing so…but here goes: I just wanted to thank everyone who attended this year, especially since I apparently forgot to order enough sunshine and dry weather to last the weekend… I especially want to thank Chuck for the t-shirt design and for...

    Time for two really big reminders! We do NOT have gas/fuel at the Syria Mercantile... Closest place to put go juice in your MV is in Madison, so make sure that you fill up the tanks and jerry cans on the way in... We do NOT have cell phone coverage in the area (ok, we do up on top of the...

    Still available, kids are ok to ride. The Lodge has a stable with horses that provides guided rides, usually an hour each, around the farm property. If you want longer rides, that can be arranged as well... You sign up for the rides at the Lodge office. I know that one of the guys who attends...

    WELCOME! (From Raleigh where I currently live, and from Lynchburg and Syria, VA, where I grew up and still call home...) I am very biased, but it is a GREAT time...with a very good group of people! You don't have to bring the truck to attend and have a good time... You could do as...

    Yep, it basically is a plotter that has a knife blade in lieu of a pen...and a slick software package to allow one to do graphic design or to import images or designs and convert them to a format that the plotter understands.

    Had some time last night, so I fired up the vinyl cutter and put together a bunch of signs to try to help folks navigate the trails... Look for these, and more, when you follow Steve around the first time you go out on a trail, and for later on when you go out in smaller groups during the...

    Noob question: How bad ARE the brakes, really?

    So, I think everyone has covered things pretty well, but since Eliteweapons is the only one so far (that I noticed) who mentioned rain... The only time that I have had an issue with stopping one of my deuces or five tons has been when braking hard in the rain with NDTs...then the lack of...

    Members in Northern Virginia?

    If you bring that rig down to the Graves Mountain Rally over the Labor Day weekend, beware the BMan (aka: Chuck) in the HQ Tent (registration) will be seriously drooling over it. He used to run a drill rig taking geotechnical samples back in the day...
