Planning to go to the Badlands on the 19th. This is our first time going with the club. Could someone tell me how it works? Do we meet somewhere locally and follow each other down, or meet at the badlands? My jeep only goes around 60 mph, so I don't know if you all drive that slow, if notmight be better off meeting at the badlands.
Also, how is lunch handled? Do we pack lunches or eat in the snack bar?
Any info will be helpful and appreciated!

The group normally meets at a gas station on the north end of Morton. The leave time will be posted closer to the event date. The normal is to be at the Badlands about 10am their time/9am our time. We normally end up back at the parking lot for lunch with the group split between ordering at the snack bar and eating a packed lunch. Their are picnic tables there so everyone can eat together.

How about we meet at the Morton BP station, the one across from the Truck stop at 0630?
I will have to stop in Bloomington to pick up a couple of passengers.
You all can stop with me or go on and I will catch up with you.
That should put us at the Badlands around 0900 our time or 1000 their time.

Hey everyone/ Josh do not forget your flags.
If you do not have a flag you can buy them at the Badlands. They are nice flags but somewhat pricey.
You can use the flags sold at Walmart, K mart, ect that are used on bikes.

We had a great time!
Thanks so much to Shannon, Larry, John, and Steve for letting me and my passengers to ride along.
My alternator decided that it had enough. Maybe the dunking at the Cliffs may have had something to do with it. We took it out and went to the parts store only to find out they all closed at 1:00. We got there at 1:10.
Brian and his daughter were very impressed with the Jeeps and said everyone is soo nice!
