Great location.  I'll have to flip a coin though; I'd promised myself to get to Newfoundland & Labrador next year.

Vote!

We'll surely put the week up for vote again.  Hell, it may not even end up in June - though if it's any later in the summer I'm not looking forward to crossing the Plains.  It was brutally hot last time.

OK, I swear I'm there next year rather than just visiting people in the Grand Junction hospital afterward. I swears. Up and down. and up. and down some more. Cripes, If I can't get away when it's 60 friggen miles away, I deserve to be drawn, quartered, dipped in gravy Train and thrown to a pack of crazed poodles. Not just any craxed poodles either. Cool ones with hot pink and blue dye jobs and the occasional spiky mohawk.

Oh, and Dred, if you need anything on the ground at this end, do NOT hesitate to let me know.

I know... lets organize a group soak up at Orvis Hot Springs... Bet the Mrs. would disapprove, since it's clothing optional, but OMG, the water is heaven (and there generally aren't that many patrons at any given time).

Got news for ya, it was brutally hot for most of us heading to the National this year. We routinely saw 100+ degrees going through Az, NM, and Tx. But it's all in the name of fun!

Oh, I know, and I winced reading miles' "eyeball" comment.  But it's SUPPOSED to be brutally hot down there.  But I-80 is not supposed to feel like I-10.

Go North and through South Dakota.

Hmm, we should do a Meet Tour - visit all 4 meet locations on one ride.  Maybe add the regional meet locations too.

I kinda like that notion.  Our own sport-touring Iron Butt rally - Vermont, West Virginia, Kentucky, Eureka Springs, SW Wisconsin, Custer, Montrose, and wherever the R1 types have their WCRM thingie.

I'd never get the time off, but it'd be fun to think about - in a different thread Razz

Yea but June in Colorado could be a hit/miss. I nearly froze coming home Sat night. And one more thing to worry about is flooding if taking the northern route.
