I am almost 100% sure he doesn't have a digicam.

OK, I'll get some when I go, unless someone beats me to it.

I talked to my buddy. He saw it last week, and it was still flowing. His dad will check it again in the next day or 2 and let me know.

Any update on the river ? I don't want to drive the extra miles if I don't have to.
I'll be going by tomorrow it looks like, unless someone chimes in tonight.

Extra miles Bruce? It's only what...a mile off I-75. lol

How about for Veteran's Day weekend, November 11th? It'll be a long weekend for some of us and we can ride more than one day. I want to go on this ride.

not a bad Idea.

It's about 40 miles from my camp to the river, and that's one way. Even if I check it out on the way, it's an extra 70 miles total. Not that far if I need to, but if I don't...............

My bad man I thought you past right by it on 75 go to and from the camp. LIke I said if you don't make it I am going to get by there next weekend.

Yea, I read that others are thinking about trying to ride there soon, maybe next weekend. I was trying to get a report out for everyone, unless someone else went by in the last two days.

Would be nice to take my son there for his birthday, we'll see.

Moose · September 25, 2005, 01:10:59 AM

If I don't hear anything before I leave, I'll go 75, catch it on the way, just 40 miles or so longer than going 19. If I can I'll ride up and down as far as I can and give a report, plus a few pics. I just hope all the pics don't come back all full of water.

Update.
Moose just called me to have me tell yall that the Alapaha is ready to ride. He said that the 41 bridge is normal. He rode for a few miles to check it out and said it was beautiful.

Hollywood · September 25, 2005, 11:39:46 PM

It's on then! To heck with the track I am getting new tires on the trailer and heading to Jasper Saturday! Can't afford the 6+ hour ride to Seminole anyway. I'll put up the post in the group rides section.

qt314nfla · September 26, 2005, 01:01:54 AM

Sorry y'all I'll be at the Eureka Dam ride next weekend. Oh well. Have fun and take pics for me.

SWEET

Moose · September 30, 2005, 05:04:54 AM

Just got back in town from hunt camp, to much work.

The Alapaha is great again. Just be carefull of the water holes, I found one, way to deep and drowned my quad good. All OK now.
Here's some pics.

I-75 bridge heading that way, saw a jeep and a quad going by, so if they made it that far, should be good to go.

Heading to Alapaha this Sunday.

Anyone else?

PredaGator · October 30, 2005, 01:31:45 AM

A group of us rode Alapaha today and there are plenty of dry areas to ride in on either side of the overpass We did encounter some deep water sections that were unpassable but there was enough dry areas to ride all day without geting bored
