<!--sizeo:7--><span style="font-size:36pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo-->FODS IV, the fourth annual FJR Owners with Dual-sports (FODS) gathering.<!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec-->
<b>When is it:</b> Friday Oct 8th - Sun Oct 10th 2010.
<b>Why is it:</b> For those new to this rodeo, the founding father of this gathering was the late Andrew Knight (OrangevaleFJR). His insight provoked a few frenzied bike sales as well as a new reason to get together for riding, eating, drinking and BS’ing (in reverse order).
Many FJR Riders are also buying, or already have dual-sport bikes. The idea is for FJR owners, or anyone really, that also dual-sport to meet and ride together. If you want the full experience load up your camper, RV or stay in a cottage but day-trippers are always welcome. If you are new or getting reacquainted to dirt you won't be alone, there will be more experienced riders who will gladly guide you in the way of the dirt. If you are experienced, come share some tips with us newbie’s and receive free drinks from those you have enlightened.

<b>Gas at it:</b> Top off in Yerington, Wellington or Topaz there may even be gas in Smith Valley. Last time folks negotiated with those driving to bring extra which worked well. Bring a little extra if you can, the barter system will be in full effect.
<b>Food/drink at it:</b> Bring your own or arrange for someone to bring enough for you. Pooling the resources always seems to work or you can venture off for something at the resort bar, grocery or big stuff in Yerington or Topaz.
<b>The rules for it (the park's):</b>
Dirt bikes and ATV’s are not allowed to be ridden throughout the Resort property. (Store, bar, pool, beach, etc. are off limits.)

Please limit your trips in or out.
Please travel slowly across the new pavement on Hudson Way. If possible, travel along side of the pavement on the dirt.
Do not rev engines and/or spin out. Be considerate.
Dirt bikes and ATV’s can only be ridden between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. If you are planning a ride after ATV hours, please trailer your dirt bike or ATV out to BLM (.25 mile).
When traveling on the dirt side of Hudson Way, do not spin donuts etc. There is a $500.00 fine from Lyon County.
<b>
Stuff to do at it:</b>
Dirt bike and ATV riding, sporting clays or lounge by the pool.
