Greg,

Try him at this email address I have had good luck with that but its been a few months since I last spoke with him.
I have emailed him at least six times; with no response. Kris said he spoke with him and asked for me; and he confirmed my reservations.

It will be about 1,200+ miles for me to get there. 99.99% of it is straight, flat slab riding. The only hills we will see will be over-passes on the interstate.

Can't wait to get there though.

Glad you got it confirmed through Kris.

I only have 900 miles of slab to get there.

I am toying with adding 100 miles so I can do an official IBR. Never tried one before but I did 800 miles in 100+ degree heat on the way back from Estes Park. If I can do that on the stock seat without highway pegs I am pretty confident it won't be a problem with my Russell seat & highway blades.

Greg, if you choose not to do an IBR, I made a reservation for Saturday night 7/30 at the Super 8 on Reserve St in Missoula just off I-90. We could ride in together on Sunday. I might have have Larry and Mary with me as well as Charlie, but too early to know yet. I love the Best Western we stayed at there., but I want to roll out Sunday morning with both arms and legs...!! Missoula is spendy!

Kris I will make reservations at Super 8 as well. I can do the IBR on the return trip if I am not too hungover. Not a big deal either way.
I really enjoy Missoula.

If you're staying at the Super 8 on Reserve there is a nice Irish Pub about a block or two back towards the interstate called the Stone of Accord (same side of street as the motel) that has fantastic jambalaya. I was really surprised to get good Cajun food in Missoula and in an Irish pub no less.
