Windsor here.

Come to NN to crawl when I have a chance.

Usually go to Hunginton Park and crawl next to the boat ramp.

Where else is there to crawl in the area?

There's a place up here in Newport News behind a strip mall.

Click the image to open in full size.

The maps shows bushes, etc. But, they just finished cleaning it all up and put retaining rocks in there.

Here's a small sample of the terrain:

If I get my stuff back together by this weekend, I might run out that way and see what you got there.

Hello
This is my first post here. I just became aware of the world of rc crawlin a couple of weeks ago and found this site earlier this week. I think the detail and workings of these trucks are amazing. I am thinking of getting into this but would like to see some of it firsthand. If any of you decide to go out I would like to tag along and see what it is all about if you wouldn't mind. The map posted above is just down the road from me. Like I said this is my first post but definately not my last.

I'll be down that way the first weekend in March. I'm teaching a class down there, so I don't know how much free time I'll have, but if any of you are getting together, I'll try to make it...

I'm honestly not sure yet. It's a glassblowing class, but it's at someone's studio. I should get the info on it soon...

I have been using the retaining rocks at Bethel Park for crawling. There isn't much there, but it is only a couple blocks from my house.
