I used to live in Springfield, TN which is about 45 min from BG. We rode at Turkey Bay at Land between the Lakes. You're not too far from D&K either -- a couple of hours if you shoot across the Cumberland Pkwy.

Hey... BG here. Sorry I'm late, story of my life...

So you're in Morgantown? I live about 15 miles north of BG in Warren county (Richardsvegas). I go up to Roundhill and shoot across 70, can be in Morgantown in about 30 minutes. Give me a holler sometime, I'll come check out your ride. We ride at D&K and at LBL. I don't know anyone else close that buggy rides, but I saw an older buggy not long ago sitting at someone's house. It's gone now but I tried to stop and catch the guy home... he must work nights.

So yeah, we should get together. I've been down in my back for the last few months. It's getting better and I've taken the opportunity to work on my buggy with the downtime. Hoping to ride around Holloween or so, better or not, I still have pain pills left!!!

Are you building a new buggy, or rebuilding, or what? I just completely rebuilt my front end. Converted to heims, new bushings, balljoints, etc. Got alot more I wanna do as well, just need to find that jar of cash buried in my yard.

Give me a call 779-0262

-Steve

Sounds sweet!
3 years is a long time, but it sounds like you've taken your time and will have a really nice buggy to beat up on. I haven't ridden in 3 months and I'm getting cranky! I used to have a good little riding spot close by, but assholes and lawsuits have caused it to close down. It would've been a perfect place for a test run. Let me know when you're ready, we'll ride somewhere for sure.
You're building a 4 seater, do you plan on taking the little woman? Or maybe kids? My wife goes with me sometimes. I have a small bench seat in the rear for the kids but haven't taken them on a real ride yet. I'm wanting to re-roof mine for more headroom and to make some changes. You don't by chance have a tubing bender do you?
If you need any help or anything or if you just wanna drink a cold beer and talk about buggies, give me a holler.

-Steve

P.S... Thanks for the plug, Dakotah. The check's in the mail! LoL

Hey man, I think I just found my new best friend! LoL

I think it's cool you've got a "family ride". Buggies are definitely a good way to spend time with the family. I wish my dad had a buggy when I was a kid! He did keep us in mini-bikes and go-karts though, so I guess that's ok. I'm on my second rail buggy, plus the baja I built a few years back.

Where's your shop at? I'll try to come by sometime. Are you serious about bending some tubing for me? I would really appreciate it, no matter what you charge, that would be awesome.

I checked out your link. Y'all do some nice work! How does it work? Do you manufacture the pieces here in Ky then ship them to FL for installation?

-Steve

Sounds good, thanks!
I guess I need to come by and work out the details with you. Would you prefer to order the tubing or do you want me to get it? I've never done any bending before so if I sound like a dumbass, I'm gonna apologize in advance. I dunno man, just tell me what I need to do. I can come over there one evening or weekend or whenever. Just let me know when is best for you
