Early Friday afternoon at least 5 of Us should be at the Inn...4 rooms that I'm aware of... I should make it there by 2pm at the latest, with plans to check in, launch, and scout out the first lake or 3.
Saturday I'd suggest a 10:30 meet up at same location, with plans to hit the water by 11, ride for 1.5 to 2 hours, return to the lake for a late lunch, snacks and fuel top off, then proceed from there as we see fit, either do the same run, set up some bouys, stay near lake roy, whatever....
Its not the preferred method, but we're kind of winging it as far as the actual ride path is concerned, bring GPS if you have one, camera's, extra gas, snacks and liquid beverages. Make sure ski is topped off, battery is charged, and hope for nice clear weather, it might be nippier than we first thought but IMO we're riding in anything except heavy lightening. If anybody has a nice map or can print one please bring it.
Is anybody else staying at the Inn ? (Spim, Matt, Dennis, Chuck & Mike) All have rooms for Friday that I know of. As of right now i have one extra bed but i've invited a couple people to join me but as of now its still available.
At water's edge I think we'll be pretty easy to spot, we'll all be near a seadoo
so if you're there Friday and can't find anybody, head towards the "beach" and we all can make an effort to look out for guys, make introductions and have some fun, if nobody is at the beach, look for a group of troublemakers in the bar/restaurant, don't be shy. A few of you have my phone # so we can track each other down that was as well, if anybody wants my #, just shoot me a PM.
Please remember that a few of us are staying at the Inn saturday night as well so please don'e do anything to wear out our welcome early on Saturday by buzzing the beach, doing doughnuts around the no wake sign, and generally being an idiot, one goofball can ruin the fun for a bunch of us so don't be the goofball and if someone becomes one, tell him to tone it down
On Sunday, my group plans to head south to the Kissimmee river,
1 Locks Access Rd
Lorida, FL 33857
maybe for a noon launch and 45 miles of dodging gators during some nice twisty runs. Launch time is not set in stone there, if we're having a great time in WH we might just ride there in the morning, or we might be so hung over we just don't care.
I haven't checked but I assume water levels are good on the K, I need to look into that.
