Let me know if you want to convoy there and back. Takes close to 3hrs to get there so I plan on being on the road by 5am. Then head back around 3 or 4 Indy time.

Ive done the drive a few times in one day and it kinda sucks, 6 hours of on road + offroad.  But it is definately worth it.

Where do you live at?

Would I be correct to assume the campground everyone stays at is "Attica Family Campground" on Perry street?


 

Oh boy I hope so…  That is the one listed in the Badass Badlands flyer correct?

BadLands is only 2hrs for me. I'll be heading south on rt.41. Don't know yet if I'll head out early in the morning or lat Friday night. Haven't decided yet, but I do plan on being there.

 

Anyone bringing their kids??? I plan to take my 3.5yr old with me.

Honestly I'm not sure if that is the one in the flyer or not?  But the 'Attica Family Campground is at or near the gate to Badlands on Perry Street. Attica, IN.  So I assume this is the campground we're staying at?  Makes the most sense to me.

I was actually just thinking I will take a vacation day on Friday so I can go out to Hampshire and get my CB ant tuned.  Then maybe I could meet up with you guys somewhere out there?

I'm in Bolingbrook about 5 min fron the Wendy's on 53 and I55. We can meet up at the Bass Pro. I have a different way of getting to Attica. It completely bypasses all the stop and go on 41.

I always head down 41, but an alternate faster route would be great.  I would be heading down 355 north of 55 so I could either meet you at that Wendy's or somewhere on 80?

I'm definitely wanting to go to this one, so is Amanda. Dilemma is whether we are taking both the TJ, and/or the JK. I've gotta see what is also going on that weekend, cause end of May we've got a Cubs game to attend, and then my younger brother's high school graduation, which both fall on a Saturday.
