Oh Boy where to start? ;-}
Once in awhile we have events called RAA (rockets across America). These are at different locales around the country and ALL are welcome, Rocket or not.
Great opportunity and fun to meet face to face with those you have gotten to know on line. I believe the past one was in Maggie Valley, NC.
This June 23 - 27 more than 50 of us we are meeting in Montrose. CO, We have a hotel set up with special rates. Folks are arriving Sunday the 22 and Monday the 23. We plan a big BBQ get together for Monday evening the 23rd. Starting Tuesday there will be day rides around the most beautiful countryside Colorado has to offer. We have mapped four day rides. Groups will be kept small, like 8 or less or one can do their own thing. EVERYTHING is OPTIONAL at the discretion of each rider. On Friday I am going to do a two day ride to Pikes peak and Mt Evans with a night over in Malibou Springs. Rolltide is making up special Event T-shirts as well. Search RAA and you shall find a number of threads about this event.
BTW - So far I shall be hooking up with Idaho Red in Nampa, ID and Rolltide in Vernal. UT on the way to Montrose. Perhaps others shall join in as well.
I'll be leaving here Jun 19 for Tri Cities to visit Rocket Roger and hopefully Phil R in Benton City. Have a couple other buds there as well so would like to maybe meet for din-din somewhere. Planning to continue . . .
