What will the weather be like and will anyone be out there? I know it will be hot and humid but how bad? I will be in Edmond,OK visiting family and want to take a few days to go to LS and ride. Would also like to meet up with some of the OK people from the board to ride with if anyone will be out there.

Let us know the dates and we might be able to make it...

July weather is normally very warm...we made a trip last year and it was upper 80's to low 90's and very nice thanks to a cool front but you should expect mid-upper 90's.

Good riding in the morning till about noon...then back out again at 7 pm and you will be fine.

I'm not real worried about the temp being high, I can take that. It's a matter of the humidty, thats what seems to suck the life outta ya. But I will deffinatly post the dates I will be there. Hope we can meet up.

Also dose anyone know a good place to rent a quad? I want to rent a 400EX or something similar for my dad to ride.

Thanks
Jay

I have no idea where you can rent a quad at...no where at LS I know of.

If, and I say IF, we can hook up, we have a KFX700 your dad could ride...it is my wife's old ride.
Custom Axis suspension, billet overdrive clutch, O/B spring, Dyna ignition, flex bars, AC pro pegs, Muzzy exhaust, etc...

Easy to ride as it is an automatic....long and wide too!

If you've never been I'm sure LS is a good place to get used to the sand. Yea waiting to heal sucks, I had 2 tendons and 1 ligimant in my ankle repaired 2yrs ago.


I talked to my dad today and he mad room resevations in wynoka for the 5th and 6th. so we will be there mid day on the 5th and leave mid day on the 7th. If any of you can make it that would be great if not I understand.

Also wht180 my dad says we don't go through Norman on the way from Edmond we go the Kingfisher.

North camp / Cowboy camp is probably the nicest. Basicly you'll drive right past the park gates about 2miles up the road there will be a gas station on your left. You'll enter on the road to the left. Follow it around to the left. It ends in North camp. Once in North camp you'll see another road heading up a small hill to the left. The nice pull through spots are back there.

We'll be heading out either Thursday or Friday night.

There are no sites with "full hookups". But there are quite a few with water and electric. Worse come to worst, we can probably split a site if I get a big one in cowboy camp since my trailer isn't that big.

Thanks for the info. As long as we get one with electic to run the AC were good. The trailers a 24ft if we can split one that fine by me. If not we'll see about getting a space next to you.

we'd be able to fit the two in one of the big spots no problem. The wife and I talked.... we'll more than likely take the trailer up Thursday evening to get a better chance at a spot.

I won't be able to stay till the 5th anymore..... the kids are already pissed about having to spend the whole weekend with me and they all talked me into coming home the night of the 4th.

We're heading up this Friday after work. I'll probably be taking the trailer up there on thursday evening. And I don't know of any rentals.

-Rich

P.S. You should have no problem getting a nice spot to camp if you come up on Wednesday.
