I'll probably do another trip in late summer/early fall of '19, but I'm looking west this time. Northern New Mexico/Southern Colorado area.
Obviously ride to my home town of Durango, CO and then the Million Dollar Highway. Spend a lot of your tourist money to keep my home town alive...
And eat at Serious Texas BBQ while in Durango. And only do the Million Dollar highway if your not afraid of heights.
Thanks.
I like heights almost as much as I like good BBQ
My advice is don't get to hung up on "events". Don't get me wrong, I love going to a good riding rally with lots of people and many different kinds of bikes. However, it is also a lot of fun to do your own events on a small scale, like say planning a ride for 4-6 people. I find that you really get to know the other riders better if you keep the group smaller. You just have more time to spend with them...
I'm not a rally rat. I dislike crowds, so the huge biker rallies are out for me. IE Sturgis, Republic of Texas and the like.
Yea, events can backfire, especially big ones. LAB2V has about 500 riders and about as many crashes.
An acquaintance lives near Deals Gap and says there are a lot of roads in the area that are just as good as the Dragon with none of the traffic.
My estimated rides for next year:
February - big bend with TWT
March/April - Aaron @maximus_flavius and I talked about putting together a long weekend history tour to wichita mountains & panhandle of texas
May - ride and camp at Mokee Dugway and ride Burrs trail in AZ /UT
June - Alaska - Hyder and Dawson D2D
August - Africa twin rally Gunnison CO
August - Sturgis
August/September get Dave @2wheelnut and Steve @macdaddy to put together another Arkansas ride
September - Rich Mountain
October - RTB
November/October - Hill Country 500
November - Texas Hammock Hang
Additional:
1. Surely there will be something at Ghost Ranch next year?
2. Local moto-campouts about every week or so
