EARLY...............

I would have traded my truck for a pair of these last w/e at GHSP!!
I was eye-ballin' Steelplayers.

Well Guys,
That was one for the books for me! Had a great time, met some new friends, and learned a lot about winter rigs.
Based on the great suggestions posted here, my setup was perfect, snug,...

I'm still in and bringing a "tenter". With all the drop outs I'm feeling pretty good about my chances with the raffle! :):)

It was ment as joke of course tents are welcome lol

All good TT, I received is as such.
I am sure all will be accommodating to his looking around and checking out all the "cool" set-ups.

Just added to the sign up list, looking forward to this challenge.
Bringing a "tenter" friend in an attempt to convert him. Hoping tents are acceptable.

PG,
Looking forward to Yates, rain, shine, cold or warm. Crowded or quiet. We'll deal with whatever Yates throws our way.
Why? Because YOU are Yates!

Always appreciate you running point on...

Love the static dates, so it's always on my calendar and planning to be there.

I'll take the UQ, PM sent.

Packed up and wheeled out about 9am Saturday, beautiful ride home via back roads and crisp sunny sky. Too old and tired to ride in the cold rain.

Phantom, sorry I didn't say thank you or...

I’ll take it

@Jimswms, I too just acquired a new to me (but new in "box") Haven with the same issue/concern. First off, I met Derrick at this years Hangcon and believe he will help you once you connect. I found...

After a few years of Hanging Friends badgering me, I tried a hammock (actually set up my tent too as I knew I would hate hanging). I slept through the night, the entire night. After three nights in...

Thanks PT, for all the hard work you do to put on a great show it's the least I can do.
I always enjoy our chats.
Until next time.

PS: Looks like I'm two post away from being allowed...

Sorry we missed you! Absolutely welcome to post share as you'd like. Perhaps recruit more like minded hangers.

Well, here's what I captured this year.

Bwahaha,
Almost, Cajun Racer's was too hard to take down without getting caught and Eli had already locked his up...... Looks like I'll have to mow some yards and rake some leaves to come up with...

Yepper, light rain until Ga state line then cleared up. Nice ride, though I hate interstate riding.

Ah ha, this is great. Thanks for the tip and link!!

Hey Guys,
Good thread. I'm considering setting up in a spare room for a few nights a week. My lower back issues seem less irritated when I hang. My question is what set-ups do y'all use? Stands?...

While my girl is hinting at trying to hang, sleeping "two up" in a hammock sounds interesting but not appealing to me. I did see a few set-ups at the Yates Hang last weekend that I'll try.

Just registered for my first HANGCON. Looking forward to the event.

PS:
Hope to have my video out this week.

Great Hang! Huge SHOUTOUT to PT for all the logistics and effort.
Yes, it was the Solo stove, "Campfire" model.

Looking forward to next time.

Perhaps some new supplies for this year.......................

Thanks for the intel. Was really looking forward to it but other hangs will be enjoyed as well.

Has the JR 2022 date been set, can't find a thread on it. Looks like the facility is temporarily closed but continuing to hold some programs. Surely we're not letting Yogi dictate attendance.

Well Imma' just shot straight and say it, I'm not man enough for the forecasted weather! As much as I really enjoyed the Fall hang and expected this one to be equally enjoyable I'm going to back...

I have it on my calendar and planning to arrive Thursday but waiting to "sign-up" until next week. The google file works for me and will back fill with what is needed as well as bring some "donation...

Did someone say Groundhog Biscuits?

Thanks Guys,
I'll try to do a bit better but you just can't replace "Oh Purdy Boil, Purdy Boil" for audio.

"Oh Oh, that's a purdy boil, that's a purdy boil"....................

On my calendar to see PH win again, this is a great hang to meet new friends as well as seasoned friends. Am so thankful I...

Here's a short video of the fun, FOOD and Fellowship.

While new and still tweaking my Tesa set-up, I've been putting my camp chair a tad past the "taco tip zone" which helps keep me on the safe side when getting up in the middle of the night or morning....

Just received my Mesh Tarp and Hammock Sleeves. While I've only used them in the garage, I am pleased with the quality and feel they will make my set-up and tear down easier.

Shout out to Chris /...

I'm biting my tongue. :laugh:

Hum, I'll try that when I set up again.
Thanks

Bwahaha,
Right, so now I won't need that pesky string tied from my big toe to the bike............

OK Girls and Boys,
I think I'm "there" with my comfort/confidence now. Using a V-Strom DL 650 with a curb weight 471.8 lbs, I attached my foot end anchor to the bike side stand. Using a foot loop,...

I have an HD which I'm OK with, the other is a V-Strom DL650. I'm sure it'll be OK and will give it a test at home this weekend. I'm just still in the "not 100% confident" stage but you guys are...

Hey All,
Another great hang, enjoyed meeting new folks, seeing “old” folks and thanks to all the Chef’s for filling my belly.

Big shout out to Phantom Grappler for the organization and...

OK,
Now I get it. Pulling more weight ON instead of OFF the stand. I see that works on a Bagger but prolly not so much for an ADV bike, too tall and light. Thanks for the One Tree link. I...

Yeh, I need some pics of that........

Was waiting to hear feedback from other bikers. Yes, I believe this could be a good back-up plan when needed. Although I'm thinking I'd use the jiffy / kick stand on the down side (leveraging the...

PG,
Are we good on wood? I have a pick up truck load of PINE I'm happy to bring. Note that it is PINE so fast burning but pending on what you have could be a subsidy. If I bring it I'd like to...

BB,
Yes on the permethrin, I use it often but had not done so on this trip. Poor planning on my part I thought late October and close to the coast would not have been an issue. Wrong!

For...

RF,
Now that's an interesting consideration as well as making for more timely set-up. I will certainly give that a try. I carried three REI poles for my tarp, one which was used on the "entrance"...

Well,
I finished my trip and in a quick nut shell I’ll say “glad I bought the Tensa”. I only captured a couple of pictures but for an overview: My trip was on a Suzuki DL650 (V-Strom) motorcycle...
