Spyders in the Redwoods 2018

[cyclekid58]

According to Spydergirl 2018 will be the next SITR, since it is now alternating years with the Red Rock Rally which will be held in 2017. I plan on doing this event, my wife will have her spyder by then and we are looking forward to it. We are doing the Deadwood 3 wheel rally this year. How many are thinking about the SITR rally and would attend, be neat to see it even better than the 2015 rally.

Red Rocks is also in 2016, right?

2016 is the Red Rock Rally http://redrockspyderrally.weebly.com/

No, according to a PM I got from Spydergirl, the Red rocks rally will be done both 2016 and 2017, then alternate years after that, and she specifically told me Red rocks for 2 years then SITR in 2018. Things could change but that is the last info I got direct.

That is my understanding also. 2 years SITRR then back to the Redwoods. BTW are you coming down to Spyders in the Red Rocks,it's not that far from you? Only 14 hrs according to google maps. Looks like Pocatello is about half way but I would go to Logan for the night then finish the next day. I think Logan is a nicer area. Maybe go back thru Nevada.

No Can only afford one major trip a year, Deadwood is it for 2016 and have an oregon coast trip planned for 2017, SITR will be my 2018 trip.

It would be good if this was on the Facebook page or website.

​I have attended Spyders in the Redwoods twice and would much prefer the Red Rocks Rally every year. The riding in Southern Utah beats Northern California hands down. Weather and Smoke from the fires was not fun. Fog all day and ashes all night at both Blue Lake and Eureka not to mention the cold weather. Also some traffic disruptions from Fire Fighters getting to and from the many fires.

Those of you attending the Red Rocks Rally will see what I mean after comparison. A big hand for Katlyn for doing either.

I helped plan and host 2 rallys in the Red Rocks area for Trike Talk.com. Great places to ride besides Bryce,Cedar Breaks and Zions.

You are correct and I was wr wr wr mistaken. I asked her about it. Have a great holiday.

Would there be interest in another rally on the west coast, and maybe not in such cold and wet weather, with some great Ryding and maybe some redwoods too?

Where there is Redwoods there is fire and fog. Only good WX that time of year with less chance of fire would be inland. Borrego Springs to Julian is great riding. Anything in between.

I don't even know what I'm doing tomorrow and it is Christmas Eve, I'd like to get through 2016 before I worry about 18.

True Ann, it's a long ways off yet. Are you guys going to the Deadood rally, if so are you going to be vendors?

That is the plan! I'm looking forward to that event as I heard all good things about it this year. We would have attended but it was a conflict with our Alaska trip.

Jack, there are no Redwoods in Tucson, you may not be an expert! There are plenty of places where the redwoods grow where it never gets foggy, except in the dead of winter! So, Jack if you aren't interested, I hope you would allow us to proceed without you. Did you know there are more than species of Redwood? Do you know that they grow in very different climates? There are actually three species, two grow in California. Do you know where the 3rd Variety grows?

I am from the Northwest and am very familiar with Redwoods, Fire. and Fog. Worked one summer in the Redwoods so no, I will not allow you to proceed without me. Just a reminder that this is a forum and all are allowed there opinion. I lived in Northern CA, Oregon and WA for over 50 years.

Congratulations on your fine expertise on Redwoods but that does not change the Fog, Cold weather and Fires. Where in "Northern CA do you live"?

Highwayman has you covered with a link. The same gracious lady who put on Spyders In The Redwoods is putting on the Red Rocks Rally. Katlyn does a terrific job and you will not be disappointed. She lives in Salt Lake City. Spyder in the Redwoods Rally will be resting a few years and the Red Rocks Rally will take it's place. IMO some of the greatest rides and scenery in this entire country.

Thank you so much for your kind words Jack. I try very hard to make it the best event I can. I am very excited for the Red Rock Spyder Rally this year.

This is the most beautiful area of the country that I have ever seen. Utah is home of FIVE national parks and it's the only state to boast about that.
