OK, I put up a post that said I wanted in. I see my name has been added to the list. Now what? Is that it? Do I need to register somewhere? Give someone some money? Just show up? Or?

Joel put up a post a few days ago that the cost would be posted after the holiday weekend.

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. :)

And don't forget to mention the first tequila bottle winner gets 1 hour of tent time with Joel & the bottle

I'll be riding a 1200GS in at O dark thirty on Friday, or trailering the GS and an XRR if the family comes.

there are people looking for rooms. sorry they're all sold out.

bill is open to sharing - this may be an option for them.

i don't really want to have a lot of cash before the xmas holiday, you'll know it if i show up on a brand new ktm305exc-f......

seriously, i'll get something out soon. been busy working on 2 dead bikes, planning my next trip (baja after xmas) and getting ready for the xmas holiday; then there's work and exercising self control (not to abuse my internet access at the office).

Just an update for me. I will not be taking the toybox out that weekend since I am not sure if I can get the necessary days off on Easter week. I still plan on attending, but will probably truck in and camp. I'll keep watching the original post for updates. I plan on bringing my plated KTM 520 to ride. Thanks.

I'm hoping to attend. Probably will arrive Thursday and leave Sunday morning. I'll be trucking in and camping with my KTM 450.

I was out and about in Death Valley today. Brush up on your sand/bouldering/rocks and tire changing skills in the next few months.

Mengal Pass:





The jeepers have filled in most of the hard stuff that you could get hung up in. I went up it with no issues. From Barker Ranch out to the mouth of Goler Wash is really different. Lots of deep sand and larger loose rocks. A few new work arounds and a lot of dense vegetation.

UpST8 keeps telling me how often I will be crashing my bike, I dont like the sound of that. Should I just go tip it over in the driveway now?

[Cowgirl]

Which Dual Sport is right for you?

Sweet...............I may need another sand lesson.

Hi Joel

Count me IN for this. I need a full hookup RV spot. A 50' pull thru would be great but I'll work with whatever is available. Can help with food prep (full kitchen) and I know how to burn food ...
