welllllllll since Jon just HAPPENED to mention this... heehee

Ultimate Adventure 2003 hit a lot of southern locations. The trails
they went down were more hardcore... Tellico, etc...

We've been east, west, but never south?

I would suggest wisconsin - however I would need to research areas of
intrest. Unfortunatly I have not found and legal places to go wheeling
around here. There isn't much to offer except mud. No rocks or hills
up here.

I'll look into it anyway.
