After last years WCR, Paul and I rode close to that same loop...except we went further east in Idaho and dropped down thru Jellystone....spent the night in Jackson Hole, had several brews while sitting on the saddles in the Silver Dollar...

You should try and extend your Utah loop further east...there are some jaw dropping rides in the eastern side of Utah. Who else will be riding with you?

Alas, my infrequent consulting work dictates that I need to return on Tuesday following the WCR.

I guess this is my "official" ticket to the show...   (popcorn)

The reality of what I may be in for hasn't fully settled in yet:   :wacko3:

Well, there's no time like NOW!

Looking forward to it.

I'm visiting with friends and family along the way and likely riding solo.  Excellent idea!  I have been to that area (by car) and sat on those same saddles in Jackson Hole...The Grand Tetons are spectacular!!  If I have extra time, I just may do that!

Yep, same here...it's about 780 miles for me from Palm Desert to Willits via Hwy 395 and over Moniter Pass.

A bit shorter if I took the coastal route, but the Sierras are a calling me.... :drinks:

Pat,

I tried to work in Monitor Pass either on the way up or back on your recommendation (rode Mono Highway on the way home last year)...I'll definitely get up there sometime!!

Since I'll be that far north in Willits, I figured I'll do so some visiting post rally.  The initial plan looks like this:



This is going to be a great rally!   :good2:

Ron if need a place to spend the night let me know. Not fancy but free  :good2:

Yeah...sorry to hear that Mike!  Fortunately, you're local so I won't have to wait another whole year to ride with you!

Sorry to hear about Mike and Tina not being able to be there. That is a bummer.  Things happen I hope all is well.  I just about scrubbed off two times but issues have resolved themselves so far.

It was tough call. May still try to catch you in Boise George. This is easier to talk about digitally... my son will be ok, buy he had a heart attack and between the unexpected cost of travel and helping him out the rally was something we decided to cut  out. SHIT!
He is only 31. He got a couple of stints and is back home today. Probably back to work (a new job he just started)  Monday. Modern medicine is amazing. There was some heart damage but the doctors says he should be damn near 100% maybe better with the improved circulation. My son is a gym rat.
The rally is shaping up to be a good one, wish I could be there. Everyone have fun and meet the fast guys at lunch  :bye:
