We're trying to finalize the date and I'll update this thread once the date is set in stone but keep checking back for any updates and looking forward to seeing you there if you can make it.
Btw, if you're interested in one of the cabins, be sure to reserve those as soon as you can since they are first come first serve.

I'll try to see if I can get a hold of some and bring some up if I have room.

I'm not sure if Windy will be leading us on all day ride this time or not so I was thinking do we want to start discussing any loops for our rides?
I personally haven't hit the back side of the Snake (going straight on 421 at intersection coming from Mountain City) so would like to see what that's like. However, if we have a couple of loops mapped out then we'll have some different choices for the rides and I'd definitely wouldn't mind hitting the BRP and having lunch at Station's Inn one time as well.
No need for strict schedules or anything but if we have some loops before hand, I figured that might help us with some enjoyable rides and we can always play it by ear if needed.

i was thinking about trailiering up. but motorcycle hitches are so damned expensive

It looks like 9/22 is the date. Some of the guys from last year's ride will not be able to make it until Friday but a couple of us should be there Thursday. I'll be there for sure and even considering heading out sometime Wednesday just to ride the Snake all by myself
At this point I'm thinking for those of us getting there on Thurs, we can use Friday to ride around the area and get a chance to scope it out and do a full day ride on Sat when everyone arrives. But there's no schedule set or anything so we're open to anything if the group decides otherwise.
Hope to see some new faces this year and even if you haven't responded to this thread and you want to join, just show up.
Keep posting to this thread if you have questions or comments and we'll keep chatting until 9/22 then we'll move the discussion around the camp fire.
