The Gravelly's were amazing.

I'd really like to do the Magruder Corridor this year. I plan on getting to Darby in time for the Logger Days, then taking off on Sunday and riding for the week.

I'll be talking to Sam in the next couple days. If you guys are going to do an MT1000 again, let me know and I can put in a link in the first post pointing to it, and make sure it is OK with Sam if people leave trailers, etc. there again this year.

just put "General Delivery" on the packaging.

You just have to watch their hours. The Darby Post Office is closed on Saturday and Sunday and open from 9 to 5 during the week.

"In!" for me and a 'probably' from the Mrs. Kind of glad it's in Darby again because I only made it down overnight Saturday last year. Will be fun to do some riding while out there this year and spend more time getting to know more of you FFs.

JJM, I'll help scout the new sections this year. It was fun recording the tracks for part of last year's MT1000 even though I didn't get to ride it. Would be fun to make up for that and join some riders on it this year. Good segue into Darby.

I doubt my Super Tenere will be here in time and if so, probably not broken in yet. I didn't order until December, so it will probably be July or August before it hits the ground. No matter. I'll just ride the minibike again this year (WR250R dual sport).

In!

That's the only weekend that I have a commitment I can't get out of. Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t! Last year was incredible!

Hey Timmer, if you need a place to stay on the way over, let me know. I live just north of Spokane.

[Snr Moment]

Dale - sorry to hear you can't make it. Has Nancy learned to ride that yet...?

Post #57 and #58 that mud? I am sure it was more than a threat, it kicked our asses and turned us back on the alternate in the Gravelly's......we have unfinished business up there to tend to.

If any one has route suggestions speak up, should probably get a seperate planning page again like last year.

Aw crap Dale, would be great to see you and Nancy again. But maybe you're riding this way another time this year?

[ballistic_ken]

Hmmmmmmmm

Thinking............

[Uglyprimate]

Hmmm, maybe?

[mxchamp]

Count me as IN as of right now.

Of course it's a ways off and I might have a new job by then. New job, no vacation.

Did the MT1000 last year, going to do the Tour of Idaho this year!

There are a couple different ways to go that would drop into the Salmon area. One going throught Horse Prairie over Lemhi Pass, the other going through the Big Hole over Big Hole Pass dropping down into Gibbonsville. from either way you can ride along the Salmon River going over Horse Creek Pass coming out Painted Rocks State Park and Connor.
