443thumper Posted April 1, 2010 just got off the phone with my buddy Jesse who went to the gas station to buy our annual passes ( we were trying to get numbers 001 and 002 ) and they have about tripled in price for 2010. $85 for years pass or $12 for day pass. I was told that you have to put the sticker on your bike and you have to buy a years pass for each bike. why do good things always get ruined? I guess its still a cheap price to pay for as much as we ride up there , but still 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like you said its still a good deal, thanks for the heads up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goosedog Posted April 1, 2010 What the hell, is Wayehutta gonna do the same? I'd really like an explanation for the prices more than doubling for no apparent reason. 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whipit1k Posted April 1, 2010 look on the bright side: maybe they can devote a bunch more man hours to making sure nobody ventures off the marked trails. I hate it when those scofflaw riders venture off the marked trails just because the hillclimbs are "fun" or "awesome" . we have rules here..... they should be in jail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorDover Posted April 1, 2010 just $85 ????????? I was told it was going to be $185???????????? I also heard the health care bill puts a new tax on OHV riders that is enforced through the NFS. So you will have to bring proof of income and your fee will work on a sliding scale starting at $185. I also heard there will be a panel of judges to hold up number cards for the guys that have epic fails on the fence jump ! At any rate some of you big $$$ guys are SCREWED !

RyanK Posted April 1, 2010 so is 433 serious or is it a joke? That'll REALLY suck for me!!! Maybe my wife was right..time to sell the bikes? Nowhere at home to ride anymore, and we sure as heck can't afford to go anywhere if prices jump like this 👍 Especially if SC follows suit, since they're so much closer, and the only trailes mild enough for taking my little guys on. As it is, in I'm looking at $25 for 5 trail passes, + $30 for gas. If those prices are as he says, that puts me @ $36 for 3 trail passes + at least $50 gas (@ today's gas prices) for an NC riding trip🤣 . I can easily take the whole family out on the lake for a whole day for that...Especially considering that doesn't include gas or pre-mix for the bikes...

At any rate some of you big $$$ guys are SCREWED ! why you are nothing but a HATER. Dont you know that the health care bill is going to reduce the deficit? Obama himself said so about 40,000 times. You dont think he would lie about it do you? I have also heard that the moon is made of green cheese but Obama has not yet confirmed that one so I am keeping that on the downlow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
