[hoosierlogger]

Thanks atc350xer. Keister said I could hold his phone for the weekend. That should be more than enough, but I want to be as covered as I can. Jon and John will know where I am at most of the time too. Should be good to go on her phone demands.

[ditchmud]

I have GPS tracking on mine if she really needs to know exactly your whereabouts?!

[TecateDan]

I would love to get a picture of my 500 that rolled to see what the damage is. John says its minor but I've still not seen a pic which makes me think its major... He's at the top of the hill and its probably the only 1984 kxt500 at tf... Somone please help me. I'm having nightmares about my baby

This event just gets bigger and bigger. I would like to thank all the hard workers and organizers for the events.... race flaggers, raffle trike, drag races, those who walk the tracks for rocks, trash picker uppers, the Haspin crew and owners, and thoe who donate parts and time for this event year after year. Those guys work very hard to make this happen and I think even I take it for granted sometimes. I am going to try and help out a litte more next year on the other end...... Thanks to all of you...you know who you are. p.s Does anyone else think it may be a neat thread to post their thanks to any certain person or people at Trikefest??? I do...... man that is a lot of work behind the scenes..... Great year again!!:lock::lock:

Glad you found your way back!

(CNN) -- A tiger mauled a caretaker who was cleaning its cage, clamping the woman's head in its mouth during the attack at an Indiana animal rescue shelter.

The woman is in critical condition after the attack Friday at the Exotic Feline Rescue Center in Center Point, Indiana.

The facility confirmed an incident involving an employee and a tiger, but declined to provide specifics, saying it does not want to discuss the incident with the media.

In a statement, the Clay County Sheriff's Office provided more details on the attack.

The victim was cleaning cages when a worker nearby heard her screaming, Sheriff Rob Gambill said in a statement.

When the employee ran over to help, she discovered the tiger had her head in its mouth.

Joe Taft, the director of the facility, sprayed the 18-year-old tiger named Raja in the face with a hose to loosen its grip before it was eventually lured away with food.

The victim, who is in her early twenties, was air-lifted to an Indianapolis hospital.

Authorities said the tiger escaped its holding area because a door was not properly shut.

Taft said the victim had "a fair amount of experience" working with cats and had previously interacted with that very tiger.

It is one of about 130-140 tigers living at the facility.

Close enough to be a panther, I speak the truth!! :lol: BTW, terrible death it sounds like. I think I would double check the door with a TIGER enclosed in it!



On another note, who one the raffle trike??

[captainweezy]

p.s Does anyone else think it may be a neat thread to post their thanks to any certain person or people at Trikefest??? I do...... man that is a lot of work behind the scenes..... Great year again!!:lock::lock:

I think I would like to nominate Rich aka ditchmud for his time and efforts of raising funds for Sams cause. I heard how much we raised and that was freakin awesome in just one night. So my hat is off to Rich. One of the best on this site.

Ya.....Rich is a heck of a guy...one of the one's I speak about when I say "behind the scenes". He does way more than we know I am sure. By the way Rich....Raffa has the bullhorn from herk and jerk...... Hey Weezy...we still never picked those guitars? :lol::lol:....2 years in a row.....:lol:

[Mickey Dunlap]

So how many people showed up for this?

[Xowner]

With a couple days left i heard 200, Not sure what the final total was.

[MIK6]

239 was the # I saw when I left but I know not everyone signed the list.
It was a great turn out. I had quite a few guys approach me and say they were back after a few years off. Was nice to see return guys again.
I cant wait till 14!!

MIK6/ Mike

[Howdy]

So what kind of riding do most do at this event?

A little bit of everything. MX, Drags, Hill Climb, mild trail, extreme trail ( some by choice and some not ), mudding, and some just putt around camp to camp to see old friends and make new ones. Haspin really does have a wide choice of trails.
Howdy

[MIK6]

So what kind of riding do most do at this event?
Mickey.. the park is 750 acres of woods trails, hard packed clay w revenes everywhere, throw in a drag strip, hill climbs, 2 mx tracks, hare scramble course and mud runs.. mostly trail rides happen all day thru the woods and revines. There is alot of socializing and camp cruising during the heat of the day.
New events just happen every year.. basement races(rumored lol), "herk and jerk" and this year someone started barrel races! That was an absolute blast! Ya never know what TF will bring lol
I spent more time cruising my manco/ agway rustler 305. My 350x was loaned out to a new brother i made from the westcoaster.. 3wheeled roofer. I did ride my T3s and my 125cc 70 but how can ya go wrong rocking a rustler while going camp to camp lol
TF riding is up to the individual! Ya can do exactly what ya want and can always find someone to go for a ride w ya!

MIK6/ Mike

[Mickey Dunlap]

I'll stick to the MX and maybe a little bench racing.:w00t:

[jensenracing77]

I'll stick to the MX and maybe a little bench racing.:w00t:

LOL, Bench racing is all I have left in me. Other than hill climbing.

[blue27]

add 4 to the list, we did not see a list when we signed up

[MRSOUND]

Just finished power washing my machines from TF. Last year (my first) was just a dust bowl. This year I found out the true meaning of clay-crete or clay-ment which ever is preferred. That chit gets as hard as a rock!

[Eric250R]

I'll stick to the MX and maybe a little bench racing.:w00t:

Feel free to cruise over to our camp mickey, we always have more food than we can possibly eat, and lots of bench racing lol.
