I work on weekends and I'd be driving from Schenectady so it might not be too good for me but I would hope others would want to go. I knew it was being built but I didn't know it was finished and open...

So far the guys on Facebook have been getting together every other Sunday. We've only been out twice so far but have an early favorite spot. We've been to a drainage hill in Troy and the Rotterdam Kiwanis Park along a creek. Rotterdam is the early favorite with the ability to make a day of it with grills and picnic tables, there's even a "Port-a-John" on site.

I know some of you don't do Facebook but that really is the best place to see when we are planning an outing. I will try to post info here but I'm not always here.

not really on facebook much but I'm open to trying it. Where do I go? I would really like to show up at Kiwanis and check it out. I'm very interested in crawling with you. Maybe you could let me know the next time you guys will be there maybe email or phone call please let me know if this is possible.

I am also interested in meeting up. I live about 15 minutes west of Rotterdam near Mariaville Lake. There are some good places out near me. The one that jumps out would be the Schoharie Creek in Burtonsville. When Irene came through it cleared a massive area near the DEC fishing access. It is now a really wide river bed. The creek takes up only about 15% of the total width. This time of year the water is pretty low too so some driving into the water would be possible without going submarine. There is also Plotterkill Nature Preserve which has some hiking/walking trails. We could probably do a scale run there, as well as drive in the creek bed since the water is so low. Christman Sanctuary in Duanesburg would be a good option too. It is only about 5 minutes off of I-88.

I have a 2.2 Hilux truggy that started life as a Losi Nightcrawler. It just needs the wheels and tires put back together and mounted.

Let me know what you all think.

There are a lot of us in the area, just not organized. And we don't know each other. R/C Kinetics in Troy has a small crawl track. Last year we had a few people showing up on Saturday, or Sunday. It's in a little bit of disrepair at the moment. But Science and Hobby has crawl guys stop in regularly.
I'm in the middle of a new SCX10 build. But am looking to get out and do some trail running.
