first time trikefest prepping

[three50x]

I have never been to trikefest before and I plan on attending this year, for those of you who don't know I own a 85 350x and a 85 big red 250. I do not know what to bring extra or what to bring. If anyone here could enlighten me on what extra to bring it would be great. tire kit? carb cleaner? wrenches? sockets? ratchets? nuts? bolts? i know the usual, oil and gas and stuff. should i bring my extra parts and stuff i have for sale? please comment back. and what is it like? hot? how many people come out? cost?

Bring a light open face helmet.. the park requires head protection whenever riding.. it gets hot there, alot of us put on a bump cap/ harley helmet for camp crusing and for slow rides around the main trails to social gathering spots.. when your in the woods throw on a real helmet..

prepair for heat, flipflops for shower and river.. ezup for shade..

try to get some people in mind to camp near, then 1 can bring tools, 1 bring cooking stuff, share the load.. no since having 4 grills, 4 tool boxes ect in 1 camp group..

when someone offers help or a burger or a cup of coffee they mean it, dont be shy, meet and greet w everyone!

you wont see anything else like TF! TF is a blast!

Howdys son has been going since the beginning, I think hes 16 this year, he hangs and rides w all of us..
I think kintore was 15 or 16 the 1st time I met him, I offfered him to take my 87 T3 for a rip then forced his dad to take my prairie700 for a few hours so he could ride w his son..
im not saying that theres not drinking some beers around but we make sure kids are welcome!

look me up, ill introduce you to some people and show you around the park!
Im easy to find, blue tanked 86T3 and 87T3 or a orange manco/agway rustler.. them 3 stand out even at TF! Lmao

Feel free to stop in at my Camp as well. I camp out at the top of the hill. I have a enclosed trailer and will have a couple flags flying and a kids 3 wheeler on top of it ( 3WW mascot. LOL ).
Also when you go in to pay you can ask them where Mik6, Howdy, Swinehart, or Billy's camp is ( just to name a few ). Heck, just stop some one on a 3 wheeler and most will show you around or point you to someone who will.

Yes, things can get wild at times, but one thing for sure is that at TF we are one big Family. Quite a few of TF attendees have taken my son on rides that he has never forgotten. My boy has adopted mik6, and Hagen ( Tallest guy at TF, and from Germany ) as true Brothers. I have to give TF full credit for my sons Love of 3 wheelers. TF started when he was 5 and he has only missed 1 ( thanks to his Mom ).
You will find when you treat others with respect you will will gain their respect in return!!

I do have a couple things to add:
#1 Haspin has some rules for us to follow. The #1 most important rule is to always wear a helmet. Do not ride without one. This one rule is the single most important rule for us to follow. If you see some one riding without one hollor at them and patt your head. I have made people park the machine until they have head protection. I do this for Safety and out of Respect for Haspin Acres.

#2, prepare to be Hooked. You will find that some of the people / members that are always bickering on here can be like Best friends at TF. I have seen a few members that hated each other become good friends at TF and remain so afterwards. I have also seen Friends become VERY good friends.

Yeah. I'm psyched. I have wanted to go but couldn't cause baseball. But I would love to meet some people my age, and especially guys like you who have helped me whenever I have had a question.
