Due to the lack of vacation time. I am sadly having to back out of attending this years WCR. As of today, I have canceled my reservation for a cabin. If all of the cabins have been reserved there is now one available. For those that will be attending the Central Rally the following weekend. I will see you in Colorado.

Steve, ride with us to Ouray, you can see Fred's beauty there.....

Some jaw dropping scenery thru Utah, on the way to Colorado, for even more omg vistas.

To hear a FJ singing her kookaloo song,  echoing thru the canyons at Flaming Gorge, is the finest music I've ever heard.

Heads up: there appears to be one handicap accessible Kabin left available - although, I'm not sure if you have to actually be handicapped to rent it...

Cabins for the HC are not protected like parking spaces. They need to be provided but the business providing them may rent them out to anyone. They have more room in the bathroom and the ramp access can be helpful when staggering back from the campfire. No steps to navigate...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

A ramp, yes, a very handy feature to have so you can roll your bike under the porch, in the event of thundershowers.

Something I noticed at last year's Central Rally.

Hello everyone.

I am getting a little concerned about this years rallies, with WCR a month away. There seems to be almost no discussion about it. Also Colorado, a week after that. Just seems like there is little very excitement about this years spring rallies. What is going on? Am I missing something? Hope this gets the ball rolling.

I am aware of both threads. There just seems to be no excitement for this years rallies. I just don't understand.
