Hopefully I'll see you guys in Moab.

Yes Dan that sounds smart. Sipapu rally will be there next year. Wouldn't it be great to get the gang back together in Moab.

Just back early from a road trip to Grand Mesa. We cut it short after the Capt. crashed out on a left hander. He'll be ok, got his clock cleaned pretty good, bruised and few scrapes. Speed and 76 years old are the main reasons I think. Sure gives me pause to witness that crash! ATGATT saved the day for him.

I am planning to stay at 3 Step Hideaway near LaSal.

After 4-wheeling a few days, I am going to 3 Step on Wednesday night, October 19th. I have a cot in one of teepees reserved.
If you haven't heard of 3 Step, it is a dual-sport bikers resort! Close to Moab and other great riding near Monticello, UT. They have cabins and teepees, and also accommodate campers.
They serve fantastic breakfast and supper, plus have cold beer on hand after the ride. Hot showers, too!
Check out the website!

anybody staying in Moab? I like the Super 8 next to Denneys on the northside. my Debra heard about it and may be tagging along?

RedHawk47 · 09-18-2016, 12:27 AM

I'm planning a trip to the SW about that time. I'll be pulling my trailer with a bike in the back of the truck; probably the TT250, maybe the RX3.
I'm thinking of meeting you at 3 Step on the 19th and staying there the 20th also. Where are you planning to ride?

Hi Dan,
I am staying in Moab during the week earlier. On Wednesday I am going down to 3 Step (where I will be leaving my bike.)
There are lots f options for riding around Moab. The LaSal loop is great, especially through Onion Creek. The ride out to Chicken Corners is pretty cool along the Colorado River.Weather permitting, I would like to do the White Rim Trail either Thursday or Friday, this is about 150 miles total, with about 90 dirt roads.
I will ride Saturday morning and then head back hoe to Arizona for 2.5 days of riding.

rbrADV · 09-21-2016, 11:27 AM

I will probably stay at the Super 8 earlier in the week while I am 4-wheeling.
I am going to drop my trailer and RX3 at 3 step on my way through ad go back there on Wednesday night. They are great folks and live for dual sport riding! There are cabins but I am staying in a Teepee. They provide breakfast, shower, towels, etc. Supper is optional. Just need to provide a sleeping bag for the cot.
PS. It is no problem staying in Moab since I have to come through town to start the trails.

rbrADV · 09-21-2016, 11:32 AM

PS. I would like to use this ride as an advance exploration for a larger CSC Rally in Moab next Spring 2017!!!

3banger · 09-21-2016, 09:08 PM

What day do you think you will be riding white rim? I'll likely ride out the night before and find somewhere to camp, ride the rime the next day and then he'd home.

GSC · 09-21-2016, 09:19 PM

So I read its possible to hook up as you come threw Moab? If I read that correctly it sounds OK for me to join ya'll from the Super8 as you come threw town?

GSC, 3banger and others:
I would like to ride the White Rim Trail on Thursday - weather permitting.
A heavy rain would be reason to delay until Friday and ride a shorter trail on Thursday.
But assuming the weather is typically great, we could meet at the Super 8/Denny's parking lot at 8:00 am on Thursday morning.
Sound like a plan?
(We should be back in Moab for supper! But plan to bring plenty of water and snacks if we run into delays. The last 30 miles or so back into town are highway so riding after dark isn't a big deal.)

GSC · 09-23-2016, 03:37 PM

I'll be there, thanks for organizing this Great ride rbr.

Reminder: you need a permit to ride White Rim. Check with the park.

Change of plans; I will not be coming to Moab.

GSC · 09-24-2016, 03:53 PM

permit is on- line available and no more than 24 hrs ahead I believe. we should dbl ck?
sorry you can't make it dan, it would have been nice to see you again.

rbrADV · 09-25-2016, 09:32 AM

I will be there Wednesday and will check on the permit. If online permits are gone (not likely in October) we can pick p a permit at the check station at the start of the trail.

rbrADV · 09-25-2016, 09:34 AM

3banger - are you going to be able to make it on Thursday?
Any other RX# or TT250 riders ready for Moab?
