2017 get together ?

[six2go]

I'm starting to think Colorado and Kentucky.
Mid August and early September, respectively.

We would need some "on-site" members in each location to do the boots-on-the-ground work.
- Find a decent motel, in a 'wet' county (lol)
- Find a tent guy
- Find some coolers
- Navigate and document some good routes
- Tie the Rally in with any local happenings, festivals, etc
- Find a local Honda dealer who wants to sponsor us
- Deconflict with any other biker operations. i.e. we don't want the Rally the same time as the _______ MC is having their annual bash.

If anyone has the people & relational skill sets to be the "On Scene Commander" for either one of those locations, please PM me and let's get a dialogue going and explore the possibilities.
Cheers,
Steve

Not a bad idea at all. However; Kentucky can still be Gawd Awful hot in September. I attended two VRCC Rallies in Paduhcah, and it was so hot & humid that folks wouldn't come out of the hotel. Late September to mid October would be more comfortable.

Seems as though there is some interest in Colorado. Let me suggest Montrose as a location. The Gl1800 group has been using this location for several years. It's located in an area where there are at least 5 days of riding if you have that long. The Red Arrow motel is use to handling large groups of bikes and their facities are reasonable and they seemed to really enjoy hosting. There is a Honda dealer a half mile down the road.

I realize we are just beginning our discussions on location but if Colorado becomes feasible, I would be willing to do some phone work to assist in making this happen.

Excellent ideas. Colorado would be a definite pick.

Can't stand the heat in Canada in July and those madmen want something in Texas in August. Too hot to even consider.

Good idea! Have them 6 months apart so getting "permission" might be easier?
