If you were going to send in a Spotwalla page as supplementary documentation, I would send them a trip that only covered the ride in question. Important tip. As long as you have a Spotwalla page set up that is active during your trip, you can go back later and create a second page after the...

I haven't stayed in Idaho Springs, but rooms anywhere along that I-70 corridor will be expensive on the weekend, but you can probably get good room rates in Blackhawk during the week. Ameristar and The Lodge are nice. Justin P ran a rally out of the Georgetown Mountain Inn in Georgetown, CO...

That ride is certainly on my list, and I would love to join you, but I cannot travel out west any time soon.

I am pretty sure the GOLD version of this ride starts at the top of Pikes Peak, and not Mt. Evans. There is also some special documentation requirements, although I think it is as simple as a SPOT OK on top of Independence Pass and a receipt from Ely. People have done ride reports on this so I...

I thought I was going to take a trip to Alaska instead, but then I started a new job and my hopes for new adventures this summer were crushed...

Good luck Mike! I'm trying to think of who else from here might be in this. Erik Lipps is the only one coming to mind. Regardless, I'll be at the finish working for Team Strange. DaJuice, are you retired from multi-day rallies?

Concur with the great customer service. I developed a ground on my bike about a year after installing my Clearwaters, and suspected it was in their wiring harness. I sent it in to them, and within a week they had tested the harness, found the problem, and a brand new one arrived at my door.

If you have a Spot 2 and ride a lot of miles every year, the decision to upgrade to a Spot 3 is a no-brainer. The battery life alone will pay for it.

Concur that the BMR can be used very effectively to prepare for "on the clock" rallies, and I also concur with the fact that Hud is not very motivated Thanks Griff !!

Thanks Chuck! I remember seeing the really clean '07 in the parking lot, but don't remember if we met while I was there (can't put a face to the name)....

Greg, I may see you there. Depends how tired I am when I get off work on Friday. Enjoy your 201st BBG :-)

Great write up!! And yes, the stories are true, one gets a bottle of that delicious beverage with their trophy. Here are some more pics. Although I did not go to these bonuses in this order, it seems to tell a better story this way.... My route:

I just plan on observing and asking questions.

Come on Hud, 72 points to Silver. You can do it...

Intech: I tried to PM you to ask for your address but the system says you cannot receive any more messages.

Yes, Highway 9. A lot of this, along with a steady stream of border patrol trucks.

Hud, Griff, Rick: Thanks for letting me tag along. Just put the fuel receipts into Fuelly, between Kerrville and El Paso our gas mileage seems to have dropped significantly. They must have really bad gas out in West Texas Rick and I had a really scenic ride through Death Valley in order to...

I wanted to finish up Virginia this weekend, but dropped the ball. Only got 5 of 7, but ended up riding some great roads (and it was my first long ride since taking the car tire off). I should be able to get out to the Eastern Shore on Tuesday in order to finish up the state.

Thanks! Unfortunately, I haven't been back on the bike since then. Both Centers Bonuses I wanted to hit (VA and DE) were affected by cold weather and potential ice. I will attempt Gold before the season is over. You're almost there....you should be able to snag at least 100 points while...

Thanks. I just wanted to know how much effort I should expend in tracking it down. Flag is pretty important...
