I volunteer to make the final reservation if someone else is willing to gather the options.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

I had a note on my calendar to revive this thread when I get back from vacation mid-August. Based on Nicole's comment above, how about we at least set the date for Saturday, August 29th?
So, here we go...
When/Who: Saturday, 8/29- MDHillSlug, KD
Outfitter: To be determined. Who wants to do some research on where they drop off/pickup and what they cost?"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Add me to the list, and I'll do some research. I was looking at two outfitters today (left the info at work, sorry....) and will research some more this week. Originally Posted by Kalidurga

Same as last year
Butt's-
$30.00 plus 6% tax plus $2.00 river usage fee
same section as last year
River Riders-
Full day trip (both rivers)-
$39 for our flat-water / white-water combination trip
( add a $4 per person user fee ($2.00 per trip) and 6% sales tax to all trip prices.)
$27 for Flat Water Only
or $27 for "whitewater" only
Same tax and $2.00 fee
The one Nicole is probably thinking about is River and Trail outfitters but they only take groups of 15 or more.2008 Trek FX 7.2/Terry Cite X

Butt's
Price is now $32 per person for the pvc tube, + 6% tax and $2 river fee. They mention a 10% discount for AAA but I don't know if everyone needs to individually show membership or if my membership would get everyone the discount
River Riders
Standard PVC tube is $27 ($25 w/online reservation), deluxe tube with backrest is $32 ($30 w/online reservation). $3 discount per person for groups of 10-19 people. all + 6% tax and $2 river fee.
We've been talking about doing this on Saturday August 29. Can we get a head count?

I think I can join you guys for this. I haven't been tubing in ages!
If I'm reading this right, the location is either Harpers Ferry or Purcellville, with a mid-morning start time. Is this correct?
