I'm not sure how I could bring the camper and motorcycle without this mod.

I really don't think my better half would be happy with me for installing a toy hauled deck.

Gona add a hell of a lot of tongue weight!  😮

This is how I usually do it but since I had to take a walk up sight and tent camp I'd figure I'd due some true motorcycle camping.

Just not sure which bike to ride. When I take the bike on the camper I take the 650, its about 350 lbs. Since I'm riding I might take the 1300 its about 650 lbs and could never go on the trailer plus I would not want to ride that big of a bike up the ramp on such a high platform.

I guess you need a new truck with an 8 foot bed.

21 days to the unofficial start of the rally.  Some of us will be coming in as early as Sunday. There are plenty of things do in the area. Costas Family Fun Park, Lake Wallenpaupack, Claws and Paws Wild Animal Park,  Callies pretzel factory, white water rafting on the Delaware River,  Steamtown in Scranton, Camelback Mountain Adventures and many other possibilities. Or you can just enjoy  this awesome campground. ( Hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, or just hanging out at the beach ) As a local from area I will work with a local wood supplier to supply camp fire wood.

justchillin,
If you can get the cabin, great.  If not, don't book a site... you can stay on one of ours.  We will have 25 sites there.

This rally is about 3 weeks away, the campground is sold out... let the fun begin! 

Bring your kayak, bicycle or motorcycle... there are members planning activities.

We will have cornhole, ladder golf, beer pong and other games to play.

There is a group going to zipline and climb in trees on Friday if you are adventurous enough.

Back by popular demand, we will be doing a group low country boil for the potluck at this rally.  We will be making 3 versions of it, please select the version you will be eating at the top of this thread.  It will help with purchasing food..

Like I said Joe, let me know how much corn and I can grab it, I live by three farms that sell it roadside.

Hey Norm, 2 1/2 dozen (30 ears) will work perfectly. We will clean them and cut them in thirds. Nice small bites for all the kids in the group.

Thank you so much for the single night offers - to my OWN amazement (I did this a year ago), I already had booked for 4 nights, so we are good- yippee - and we would love to take part in the zip-line adventure

Less than 2 weeks away!!  Can't wait!  If Joe wants to take his motorcycle up, I can attempt to tow the camper.  :omg:  Would be the first time every towing, but everyone has to start somewhere!!  lol  :banghead:

You can bring the camper to my house on Saturday. Then go and get the bike.  After the rally you can leave the
bike and keys in my garage and come pick it up in a few months.  🙂 ( key word leave the Keys )
