My rack has not come in yet, it still has some time to come in but I don't think I will have the time to do it. I think I am just going to just throw everything in the back and just head out.
Yeah I think im going to be in the same boat a bit.. Just throw it in and maybe get a better idea of what I need after the weekend. What rack did you go with?

Any idea what trailer you are going to go with? I am looking at Schutt Xventure, but I am early in the research phase.

Good choice! No not yet.. most likely its going to be a custom build, I need it to serve a number of functions (Camper, kayak and Canoe Hauler, misc. hauling duties).. but I haven't decided yet.

Will be heading down Thursday morning, camping at the event. Only a 2.5hr drive this year(from DC area), which is awesome. There's a few of us from this area driving down together if anyone else wants to join.
Any attendees driving from or coming through the Washington DC metro area and willing to car pool? 50/50 chance my DIY build may not be ready in time. My backup plan (Amtrak) only goes to Charlottesville, VA (37 miles north of the expo).

I am heading down Friday from Manassas, but full up. I hope you get your build done.

Yes, paid for the forrest camping. How about you?
No kinda wishing now I had signed up for that.. I live in the area so probably go somewhere near by and camp. Only have Saturday day passes right now, may extend it to Sunday. Wasn't sure at the time if I would have things I would have to do Sunday but looks open now.

Just an FYI to everyone....you can add Forest Camping after the fact. It is limited to 150 total spots.
