Next National Rally
Hey there everyone !!
Well as you might have noticed, 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 guys?? Any chance some of you might consider it?

Too far? Dude, you're retired. You've got nowhere to go and all day to get there.

Geez....I rode to Custer in '09, Cortez in '10, Kanab in '12....and Estes Park in '13. Those are not little runs to check the mailbox....ahem. I'm more limited by time contraints than distances. I gotta be able to get there and home again in no more than 9/10 days and still leave time to relax and enjoy.
I need time in the fall for my Dances with King Salmon....!

I have not ruled it out. It is only 1600 miles from SoCal and 2000 from my place.

It's 2,000km for me. Maggie was 1,300km so no that much more and I may actually be in a better position to attend than Estates.
