    I'm in. Got the last room available (with three beds) for Fri & Sat nights. If no one needs the bed space, I'll bring my wife & dogs. :eek1
    I'll be riding a 1200GS in at O dark thirty on Friday, or trailering the GS and an XRR if the family comes.

    I would like to bring your attention an important detail about DV noob's Rally. Being one of the best and biggest events of west coast, DV Noob's Rally is a great place to advertise your motorcycle / adventure related business or products.
    Every year many businesses step up and donate their products for the main event of the rally, Saturday night raffle. Many top brands as well as many other small or start up businesses help Joel to put this raffle together with their donations.
    I know there will be a lot of great donations this year as well, from service coupons at local motorcycle shops (Lior), to strongest tequila in town (Mike), Klim, double take mirrors, and many more.
    It is the best and cheapest publicity you can get for your business. 200 hardcore riders in one place, most of them are noobs who are trying to farkle their bikes with the nicest gadgets and parts out there. We all talk about the prizes all night long, even if we don't win it. :)
    So if you are a business owner or know anyone who would be interested in (almost) free publicity, please contact Joel.

    P.S: sorry about the misspellings. Damn foreigners. :)

    if you guys have the chance, take an extra day or 2. there are a lot of riding to be had in death valley. we have been doing this every year, and some twice or more - still haven't explored the other side of death valley.

    there's a tendency due to lack of time and the desire to cover long distances, that we just blast through the landscapes without smelling the flowers....:cry
