So are you thinking of hopping on your bike after the WCR and heading directly east to Colorado?

Sounds interesting.. I should have enough vacation time in the bank by then to do such a trip..

I can say that after where we had this years WCR, any and all KOA's suck in comparison.

Not surprising K-man is thinking of doing something similar for a Colorado rally.

What are you smoking?
Six people for a week, @$2,400?
$400 each?
Under $60 a night?
You tell me where the KOA is that charges less.
If you wanted to pitch a tent or turn up in an R.V, pretty sure you'd find room on 38 acres.

Yea, I agree Garth.

It seems that we have become grown ups..... instead of a bunch of kids at summer camp (which charges $78.00 per night for a tent)

Kudos to Marsh and Klavdy for allowing us to grow the fuck up.  :good2:

Klavdy...I'm in for Tellico in 2012 a hop skip and a jump from the WCR.  Remember: We ride FJ's. They have long legs.
400-600 miles a day is no sweat.  

Cheers!  Pat

Pat my good man, I would be delighted to ride with you to Colorado but I'm not too sure if I want to ride to Tellico.
Our mate Marsh is a bit tied up at the moment but hopefully it wouldn't be presumptuous to consider him being in as well.
So, Bean, you in?
Pat, yeppers.
Fluffy & I, yep.
Wow, what a nice trip, Southern C.A(and Oregon)  to Redding,across on the "Loneliest Hwy in America" ,Hwy 50 & Hwy 722, Nevada.

400-500 miles a day?
No worries.

Of course you can count me in.  :)

I accrue 12 hours of paid time off a month which works out to about 132 hours from now until June.  Add that to the 180+ I already have saved up and it shouldn't be an issue taking a 2+ week long rally trip.

Pat.. Our bodies might be "grown up", but quite frankly I don't think we ever actually "grow up".  :rofl2:

Sure would LOVE to do this.  I'd have to rent a bike, and get plane tickets.  Please keep me in the info loop.

Me too, would love to get out to Ouray area.. would rather have my own bike though.   If we could find a few east coast takers, a tow vehicle and trailer we could iron man it out there.   Something to think about..

If this comes together, I'm sure there will be a number of east coast folks making the trip.  I would imagine finding a few people to trailer over with and back wouldn't be an issue.  Similar to what Marsh, Klavdy and Pat did for their trip to the east coast rallies.

Dan, rent a bike? Maybe not.

I have a 2nd FJ, a very nice rubber mounted '92, and if my buddy Paul Lawson can't make the trip, you are welcome to use it.
Ask Henry Russell, he rode it the last time we went to Gunnison.
