Steve, Laura, and the gang from Rock Ridge Offroad (the Evington, VA, Jeep club that helps me with logistics and trail maintenance) will be camping at my cabin over the weekend of the 4th. We will be performing trail maintenance, cutting a new loop trail suitable for the five ton trucks...
Since you asked about the VA Rally (aka, the Graves Mountain MV Trailrides and Rally) that I host...

8th Annual Graves Mountain Military Vehicle and Vintage 4x4 Trail Rides!
Labor Day Weekend

At the historic Graves Mountain Lodge in Syria, Virginia.
It's time for me to start the threadfor the annual gathering so that everyone can start planning and get time off from...
I just wanted to say that I had a great time and am really, really, glad that I was able to take off from work. Missing last year was depressing...
I would like to thank all of you who ate at the MKT, and to especially thank those of you who helped out-either setting it up when I arrived...
I added a few more folks to the MKT list this morning...
If you haven't signed up already, you are too late for guaranteed food...but I should have some extra at each meal in case someone is hungry, just not enough for a stampede... ;)
I will, however, have the big coffee pot and the two drink...
Updated the MKT list today...
Everyone who sent me a PM should have gotten a reply... :)
I'll actually be picking up food on Monday night.... You can sign up until mid-afternoon if you like waiting until the last moment ;)
Since the link that I once had to the milspec retrofit is broken, perhaps you can scan and send me a copy of your instructions so that I can post them to my website??
Thanks,
I am in (Notice that the MKT will be closed on Friday night as a result...).

OK, I haven't had many folks sign up for meals at the MKT.
I plan on having food for those who contact me prior to the event.
If you don't sign up before the show, don't get pissed off if I tell you that I don't have food for you when you come by the MKT...
My work schedule these days is...
I have convoy signs and will bring them.
We are using them for the convoy from Raleigh over on Wednesday afternoon (I am bringing a few friends to help at the MKT...), but they can be used Friday. :)

Make sure that you put a note in saying who you are...
I also went and added this info to the menu page...
Thanks!
I should add that my work schedule is pretty hectic these days (my supervisor is getting very near retirement and has a bunch of stuff he wants to get done before he sails off into the sunset...) so I am not checking this page every day...
The best way to ensure that I have you on the MKT list...
