Putting this on my calendar, at least tentatively...


Hey Randy I'm going for sure. Unless something happens, like what kept me from going to Telico this year. Will be taking the trailer and my ATV.  If it's not totalled.  Maybe you could hitch a ride with me.

Dan, if you're bringing the ATV, make sure you order the Colorado OHV sticker well ahead of time. They are valid from April 1st.

I have heard of people being stopped an cited if you do not have your sticker.

Lots of awesome trails to ride here in CO, but you already know that.  :biggrin:

Thanks, Dan!  :good:

I'll keep that in mind.

I've learned to be careful making bold commitments when it comes to big motorcycle trips, so I've been hesitant to confirm that I'm in for the Colorado Rally.  Having said that, I'm definitely trying to make it to this little soiree, so as of right now, I'm tentatively in.  I don't know if I'll make Willits as well yet, as I also want to visit friends in Arizona; but hopefully within the next month or so, I can come up with a cunning plan.  :scratch_one-s_head:  :pardon:

Just wanted to give a friendly heads up.

I checked with "Ouray Riverside Inn and Cabins" today, and it appears that there are (4) of the smaller Cabins still available, as well as plenty of their Hotel rooms.

June can't get here fast enough. I'm looking forward to this!

Dave Skipper has made his reservation :yahoo:, 8-12 June, four nights to prevent the non-refundable over five day half payment. I intend to arrive 5 June-6 June. Anyone need a bunk? Randy, notalib, will likely be part of my cabin.

Well, looks like the first big trip for me (of my life and summer) just got bigger.  :yahoo:

I'll still get to go to the Motos in Moab and have a great time out there... but now my wife is flying to Denver so we can see the Lumineers on the 7th at Red Rocks, sooooo, I "have" to stay another week in Colorado :good2:.  I'll be working remotely that week but it will at least have me in the right state!  I should be able to make a few rides and stop down for Friday and Saturday.    :good:

Sounds great!
We are filling this Rally up! :yahoo:
Keep in mind, it is about a 6-7 hour ride from Denver to Ouray, so plan accordingly.

Good point.  I will keep that in mind.  now back to maps and planning... it is only a 1,222 mile ride home from Telluride, so only about a day to ride :wacko2:
