Bring FJRGuy Jeff from Alberta, Canada along with you and I am hoping that yamafitter will drag along Bungie Sudbury Steve with him also, everyone is trailering their dirt machines to McAllen, TX. I just know Huron52 won't make this trip, Pam B. never lets him go anywhere!

Yeah, looking at either trailering down in April, or dropping the bike somewhere down south for the winter... plenty of time to work out the details.

Buen dia Don,
Wrapping up this outline for the ride. I don't see that we ever firmed up a date, at least in any e-mails.
I propose mid March. The weather can be ideal and we put some distance between the ride and the hectic Easter period.
I suggest we start on a Monday giving weekend for people to travel. With Monday start we'll be back across the border ten days later on a Wednesday.
DATES: March 9 -18
I can get this out to you right away if we agree on a date. From here in Istanbul I'm having difficulty making it "pretty" as I need photos and my adobe illustrator, but we can get some essentials out and make it look good later with photos, etc. Does that sound OK?
When we do our pre-run we will be doing some filming and can send out tasty video invitations in November to pick up anyone who may be sitting on the fence. I know this will be a fun ride.
From magical Istanbul.

Hi Don,
Thanks again for reaching out to wish me a Happy Birthday. Sixty two isn't that bad especially when you consider the alternative!
Don here is a link that you can send out to everyone with the details of the proposed ride next March. Sorry it has taken so long to get this to you but this is a new thing we have developed to specifically suit the needs for private/custom tours. People can make reservations directly off of this link.
https://www.motodiscovery.com/Huasteca-Mexico-Adventure-Expedition-Motorcycle-Tour
We're playing around with the photos a bit but you can send this out now if you like.
Just got back from a month running around Turkey, Rep. of Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia. Great ride with great people but good to be home. Heading to the BMW National on Wednesday (flying up).
Drop me a note if you have any questions. Hope to see you sometime soon Don...mil gracias caballero!

HUASTECA MEXICO ADVENTURE EXPEDITION MOTORCYCLE TOUR JOIN DON STANLEY ON THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND ADVENTURE!
10 DAYS AND 1,250 MILES OF RIDING IN MEXICO Around the Black Sea Ladakh High Himalayas Expedition
123456789
Tour Character
This is an adventure ride that will be a mix of paved touring and off road explorations. Off road riding should only be moderately challenging for the experienced, spirited and physically abled riding enthusiast. Some days will provide options to take the pavement or experience off road sections. As with any MotoDiscovery Expedition, teamwork and flexibility are essential.
So you want to see the REAL Mexico.
This ride is inspired by long time supporter, Don Stanley who has shared many roads with MotoDiscovery dating back to our dates as Pancho Villa Moto-Tours. His love of Mexico, passion for challenge and laid back attitude has always made for great contribution to the success and enjoyment of any tour.
Don collaborated with MotoDiscovery to create a ride through what could arguably be considered one of Mexico’s most beautiful ,yet overlooked regions, the Huasteca. This east central region is filled with geographcial diversity, a richness in history and native culture, and an opportunity to enjoy great riding both on and off the pavement. This area is highlighted by the most northern cloud forests in the hemisphere, the El Cielo Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO sight that covers about 560 square miles reaching a peak altitude of 7,500 ft. above sea level.
One stop where we’ll be for two nights is the legendary Real de Catorce, a hidden away Colonial era mining town in the high altiplano, accessed only after riding through a one kilometer long tunnel after climbing up a 14 mile long hand laid cobble stone road. On exiting the tunnel it is like you have experienced passage into a time zone, set you clocks back two hundred years. Real de Catorce will invite exploration both on two wheels and walking the old streets of this revitalized once ghost town.
In the usual MotoDiscovery style this event will be supported by our great staff team, a 4X4 vehicle and driver will be employed to bring up the rear, and depending on the group size one to two riding staff will lead the way. Great food, the best available accommodations and the benefit of over 33 years of experience in Old Mexico guarantees this to be a great riding event.
Sign up soon. This one will fill fast. Don’t miss out on this pioneering event into the heart of Old Mexico. VAmanos muchachos!

Don,
I called MD and had my name added to the list. I haven't committed with a deposit yet, because I'm waiting to get my leave approval from work. It shouldn't be a problem I just didn't want to take a chance.

Sounds great Chris, very glad to see you making the trip; the more Old Mexico Riding Hands with experience, the better this ride will be!
I was really surprised yamafitter - Billy Fitz hasn't sent in his deposit yet, but then I remembered that Tuesday is his Bikini Wax Spa day!
