FWIW, myself and a three others trailered out to Colorado Springs last year. From sunny Sanford, FL it was 34 hours nonstop !!! We stopped for fuel and food. There were four drivers so really a non issue. We ran approximately 80 mph and just kept on going....For normal people this would be at least a three day ride. MO. took about 12 hours to cross! I say this just to let some from the East coast realize what you're looking at. For me and Monch, we will not be headed west. I have to say for those that go, it is some of the most amazing riding and scenery you will ever see. The area makes the BRP look like a pimple ! I am not a fan of splitting the board for two rallies, having said that there are many who can't make the trip west. Therefore having a "get together" Labor Day weekend is not a bad thing. At this point I will be in Franklin with Monch doing some riding and drinking! I want NO PART of splitting the rally, group or board, I just can't go west.
