Anyone in the Chicago area want to get together for a trip to Attica, IN. For those of you who don't know about it... http://www.badlandsoffroad.com/

I would like to head out there sometime in the next few weeks.

The dealer event, for those of you who don't know, is on the 20th of May, so that would probably be a bad weekend, but I would easily skip that if there was interest on going to the badlands.

I'd prefer a saturday.

Anyone?!

Tom I would be very interested. Saturdays work well for me also. I have been trying to get some more information on some other locations in the area (200 mile radius) Let me know when and the location.

Sounds good, Scott, anyone else?

Wow, I live in Indianapolis and never even heard of this place! Learn something new everyday. That weekend is not good for me, but I will definitely be willing to check it out sometime.

Huh - too bad.
We were just out there last Sunday.
Don't forget to do the part in the quarry that
says 'experts only'.

I'll be at the dealer event on the 20th. I kinda put together the Badlands trip you saw pictures of.Couldn't take my truck that trip ,having rims powdercoated and I borrowed a set of stock D-90 rims with AT's to use.Vowed never to go off-road with an AT again.Thats my Disco at the beginning of Discoweb(too proud, Thanks HO!)Maybe see you there, Tom.

By RVR OVR (Tom) on Thursday, May 10, 2001 - 10:58 pm: Edit

Kevin,

Great...I am sure I wont have trouble spotting you there since I have have seen that picture about 50 times now. I spend way too little time at work actually working and keep hitting discoweb instead...ooops.

Anyway, I'll be the one in the Disco with the swampers and plates that say RVR OVR. Looking forward to seeing you there.

To any who were interested...looks like some folks are going up to Attica one day during memorial day weekend. I am hooking up with a couple folks from the Chicago Land rover club, so they will probably dictate which day (strength in numbers). I'll know more on Monday.

Tom sounds good. I am pretty sure that I can make it down there that weekend also.

Day turned out to be great! Unfortunately, I didn't get a lot of pictures. I'll post what I have soon. If anyone has pictures and wants them scanned and is computer impaired, email me and I'll give you my address to snail mail them. I'd be happy to scan and email them back (and return the origs.) Hopefully, I'll have some video clips as well, but I was having too much fun to spend much time with the camera!
