Uncle Gus' has two big cabins left. If several wanted to get to get together and gang up on them...

So does that mean you are looking for a group to share one with you? Or this is just a public service announcement? How big, BTW? I know of two guys I could talk into joining me.
 
Details will be covered at dinner tomorrow night so that everyone has the same opportunity to screw up their routes under time pressure.

I'll go ahead and state that all rules will require IBA style documentation for a bun burner 1000 - a receipt from a gas pump with date and time will work fine.

Thanks, I guess. Routing is easy, what I bike I arrive on is another story.
 
I believe the two biguns available are around a buck fitty a night. Never seen them, just going off second hand info.

OK loaded the rally raid onto my gps and it looks good. Loaded dirty raid it shows only 16.8 miles???? Beemer nav 3, and i don't have a bunch of stuff in it. Is this the omen to not attempt the DR?
 
Okay, check the link. I've shrunk the tracks to under 500 points so they should work on all gps units. I tweaked the DirtyRaid so it is in two parts and both have less than 50 waypoints. I've updated the main file with all the before mentioned changes, plus I've created a gpx file for each loop. Actually all the paved is still in one file. I suspect if anybody does that, it will be as a route on a modern gps (insert GSA and Starbucks comments).

Probably got truncated because of too many points. Try the new one I just uploaded. It is in two parts.
 
Made it to RTB with dualsportrider. Tenting down in the hollow.
