I think I paid around 48 bucks for a room at the Chisos Mining Company motel...no phone, no tv-heaven. Keeping gas in your tank in that area is task...lots of space between stations. I dunno how much my 600 will suck down on those twisty mountain roads. I might need a small back up tank.

 

naa you should be fine . when we went last year there was a gas station about ever 100 miles .. that seems to be the sweet spot !

 

 

this would be the first day of riding . i know its not very up close but that gives you an idea . thats just one day of riding ! the next day would be in big bend ! if any of you have AIM my screen name is splitfire20 or yahoo its fordsandhondas

 

I'd figured, since it is a National Park, I'd take my sleeping bag and just sleep under the stars. One can probably reserve campsites, too. Pesky Rangers!

 

hehe thats all you buddy after a long day of riding . i'll take a good shower a nice bed and a cool place to lay down and take my rest

 

Yeah. I forget I'm a wild animal. Hotel room would be great, I get the bread together. I'm actually pretty close to Big Bend, now that I looked on a map. Seriously looking forward to getting together with peers, if you will allow. Thank you. G.

 

yea man you can go i never stop anyone from going on a ride with me .. unless your a stupid rider when i say that . i mean if your in the back of the group or up in the middle of ppl trying to stunt and stuff like that . then that dont make me happy . i'll yank you out of the group in a heart beat but if your up in the front ( and i mean a good ways up there ) and thats your cup of tea go for it i just dont want to have to take someone to the HP because of a mess up they make. last time i went we did a "pre ride" just to see what everyones skill level was .. kinda of thinking about it again .. but i dont know . i know my riding style ..i'm agressive . very agressive. i tell most ppl not to try and keep up . if you can great if you are better . great i ride at my level and if i'm with ppl that are not up where i am when i'm down there i stop every so often to make sure everyone is ok . had a guy go down last time i went . he went in to a corner to hot and over shot it . got lucky . he was about 2 foot from hiting the side of that mountin ( ok ok really big big hill ) so if everyone pulls out where up to 11 ppl so far

 

ok guys i have 9 ppl that say they want to go ( i must have miss counted somewhere but i have it writen down now ) i need to know how many ppl know there going to go ? i know its early but i need to get the guys that are going to find out where we want to stay and do what we have to , to get things setup . if we stay in a hotel in fortstockton then we dont have to worry so much tell about 2 months out .. but if you guys want to stay in big bend we need to work on that now . because big bend fills up around springbrake time .. i know its crazy .. most ppl want to go to the beach ... but last year they where full .. and we started planing 3 months a head of time only thing they had left was the 200 dollor a night rooms !

Ohhh and this trip will be right around tax return time as long as you get it in early!!

 

looks like we will be staying in a hotel .. big bend is full already thought that was gonna happen .....
