You having to ride any distance at all is a shock to us all!

I highly doubt I'll make that one. Sounds like a great time, just don't think I'll have time enough to make all the miles + stay for a few days.

Hey there everyone !!
Well the 2015 National rally has been announced. Eureka Springs AK. USA. It's suppose to be a great place to ride and I'm sure if you're looking for a little culture shock it won't disappoint. ......I'd love to attend but I think it might be too far for me, but you never know till you know, ....and I won't decide for sure for a while. I posted the distances for the major cities of Canada on Face Book.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=1&theater

2200 Miles from Vancouver !!!,....
1780 from Calgary,
Edmt AB 1870 Miles,....
closer for Winnipeg only 1,046....
1050 for T.O. ,
1380 for Montreal Quebec boys.....
2260 Miles for me from 108 Mile House

What say you Canadian guys?? Any chance some of you might consider it?

That would be a long way to go on a Victory!

Since I ride a real bike, I guess that leaves me out.

I know you're disappointed with the location, but you live in the far north west . Most events are going to require a couple days of travel for you. Hosting a national event, especially a combined national event, in the far north west wouldn't make since as the majority of our members live south. Last year we had several people travel around 2000 miles to get to Estes Park.

If I took this route (including the rally) I could finish out my lower 48 in one trip 8200 miles. 125 hours of seat time. Hmmm.
