The Idaho location might be a good one in combination with the NW clan. We may have to do some talking with Netorske at the Redwood Rally.

I like the idea of going to yellow stone area.

Island Park Idaho is approximately 300 miles North of Salt Lake City, and 100 miles North of Idaho Falls, ID. It is about 25-30 miles from Yellowstone National Park. It's a couple of hours from Jackson Hole, WY, and about an hour from Bozeman, MT.

Island Park sounds good (and cool). It's been over 30 years since the last time I've been to Yellowstone.

Might I suggest Susanville, CA? Great riding around there... 139 north of there and all around Eagle Lake is awesome....and Lassen Volcanic National Park is close by. Once out of town, there is very little traffic too...another big plus. Just a thought....

I've ridden through out that area. Beautiful! Great suggestions.

frisco,colorado gets my vote.numerous great mountain roads and cool summer temps.

I would like to suggest Golden Colorado. From there we can easily have rides to the top of Mt. Evans (over 14,000 ft. in elevation), Peak to Peak (Between I-70 and Estes Park, the Trail Ridge Rd. loop (either direction). A day ride covering 6-10,000 ft. passes in one day. These are just a few of the day rides available. I also wouldn't mind going back to Cortez there is still a lot of riding we haven't done there.

I've heard a lot of good things about Golden, but have never been there.

You know I've never thought about Golden as a rally base location, but you're absolutely right Rod. Great riding in three directions and Denver in the fourth, so pretty much everything one could want within easy reach. Plus, Golden is a really cool town.

waterman · 06-17-2011, 07:46 AM

Rod,

That would be a good one. It would also be a good one for the next National rally. But I would like to move this around so that the western members would have a little closer ride since we had the rally in Cortez last year. But, will probably put this up for a vote to the members.

Hey, are you going to be at the Redwoods rally??

cactusjack · 06-17-2011, 09:56 AM

Anywhere that's 20+ degrees cooler than home is a-okay with me. I'd love to ride I-70 again over the divide.

Ever gone on the Coors brewery tour? It's probably too time-consuming to do as a group, but the beer they give you in the fresh beer room from a keg right off the production line is tasty.
