Well, I guess you can count us in. After all, what could go wrong? We'll give it a try. Sounds like fun.

I've never played the game, but it sounds like a good way to blow out a hip or knee.
Any game with "ball" in the title sounds dangerous. I'll watch.

Saundra and I are registered and will be arriving the Friday before the rally (need to pig-out at the Amish dinner on Saturday). Plan to attend the Ontario rally the weekend prior to the trip down to Goshen. Pickleball, eh. Interesting.

Great that you will be attending the Ontario rally. We look forward to seeing you and Saundra again.

Hopefully, other Michigan members can join us. The location of our rally (McGregor ON - just over the bridge from Detroit) is only a 3.5 hour drive to Goshen.

Has anyone thought about having a trailer Rodeo.. Or what ever. Many of us talk about having to back our trailers but don't have a way to practice unless we do it somewhere before we setup. I don't want to take my trailer down and go practice for a while then go and set it back up.

If we could get say a 5th wheel & Tongue Tow about 30' to 35' long and have a place that anyone wants to practice, that would be fun. I went to an RV Driving school but would like to get more practice some how.

What so you think?

I would be be the first to sign up. I need more practice, but it always seems we're fully loaded and in tight places. I drive the highways, but I would love to practice parking and backing up.

Maybe we could find a mid-length 5th wheel, like a Bighorn 3400RE, that everyone could use for practice. :rolleyes:

We can always use experience, and tips from a pro...especially me! I think I wouldn't have to do much to talk Sally into it, she's said several times she's about ready to try pulling the coach on a flat, straight stretch of the road.

I think this would be very good practice for all of us. I especially like Dan's idea of using a Bighorn 3400RE.

I'd like to practice with something that was not my rig. ;)

Yes I am sure you both would. Only problem mine is not a mid-length. It measures 39ft over all and you wouldn't like the rental cost.

What say you fearless leader??

See you all at the rally.

I think JBs new Landmark is the optimum thing to use and since he will already be hooked up to pull over to the rodeo area we could just use his truck. Just throwing it out there.

Seriously Bob, you have a good idea. The obvious problem is how to get the truck and trailer.

Seeing as how the event is at a fair grounds, This could be a prerally event. Charge admission to general public. The results could look something like this!

I second that Rex! But really maybe the RV Dealer has an older one that they might be willing to let us use. And then you can use your own truck (Getting hitched up/ Un hitched training also) and your insurance would cover any damages. Of course you would have to sign a wavier I am sure!
