MoGang Ryde to Colorado for BRP Owners Event!

[SpyderLady]

Ours is at 3515 main which seems to be down from where the thread was mentioning. If you go after reservations pls stay in close contact with me so I can possibly change to same as everyone else..problem is that rooms are going just like we are experiencing in Cuba. I had a reservation that I cancelled but it was very very expensive. Thanks

Steve, I just made my reservation at Wagon Wheel for the 17th. Count me in. Thanks, Dick

 

[SteveMac]

Time to revive this thread MoGang and I will update the first post so we know who is going where and when. PLEASE let me know if I have anyone listed incorrectly!

SpyderLady Linda and others are taking a long and winding road, but we can all meet up in Albuquerque and hopefully stay at the same hotel.


For those of you who haven't yet booked in Albuquerque, here is the info.

I Just booked a room for June 19th at:
Ramada Hotel & Conference 10300 Hotel Avenue Northeast Albuquerque NM Phone:1-505-296-4852

This is also the same hotel Spyderlady and her crew will be staying at.

Steve,

Thanks for the info. Just got it done also. Did you ever get a place in Durango?
My 2 Brothers exhaust that I had installed at Spyderfest broke.
It's not like it keeps me from riding.
I think Cowtown only stays open until early afternoon on Sat. & I don't know if I can get there soon enough to get it fixed then.
I'm trying to get ahold of Len to see what it takes to get it fixed.
I hope your schedule is slowing down.
Yesterday's go kart win should help you enjoy life.

I haven't yet gotten a place in Durango. But I am thinking of looking at a condo that would house six people and split the cost???

For example, this place is only 15-20 minutes from the fairgrounds

Anyone interested??? At $225 per nite, with five people it would be $45 per person or $38 ea with six people.

Hey Steve, Three Feet was talking Saturday about going on her own so I do not think that she will be with us. Maybe she will "chime in" on this thread and give us an update. Also, I assume, that Spyder Rock from Canada will still be going with us. I think that he was getting work done at Cowtown and was staying over to ryde out Monday morning with the group.

I mentioned in a PM to you about Scott and Paula but it looks like you already new about them going. We will see Paula at lunch today so I will let her know about the Ramada in N.M.

I'm heading out on the 17th and taking 54( once I get there) all the way ( turns into 400 after awhile) to Walsenburg where another spyderlover has kindly let me stay at their place. Then on to Durango and the KOA. Sooo You all want to go to Albaquerqu first. I can't do that one. Still have to get the rest of my stay In Durango set. Gotta get with that PDQ!!!! See ya there.

 

[SteveMac]

Starting to get more excited about this trip, now that I am booking rooms and making plans finally!

Looking forward to riding and going to an event just for the pure pleasure of it and getting to visit with everyone!

OH Yeah! :yes::yes::yes:

 

[SteveMac]

Bump.

So is the current short route leaving from Cuba itinerary (leaving on the 18th) ok with everyone? Or, would you rather leave earlier on the 17th and take it a bit easier on the ride? I am open to either way. I'm so excited and happy to go that I'll agree to ALMOST anything right now!!

 

[SteveMac]

And I did book that condo today. Scott, Paula, Dick as well as me and Connie are staying there. The place has good ratings.

Time is ticking down!!!!!

 

[GloryRyders]

Steve, we have made reservations at the Chateau Inn in Cuba for Sunday night. Question................do you have a planned stop for breakfast after we have gone a ways or did you planned to eat before we left Cuba at 7AM? If we were stopping along the way we could leave earlier if you wanted. It's just a thought!

Hey Jim, I think most of us will be in Cuba on Sunday night. So let's all have dinner together and decide on when to leave. I'd definitely be up for leaving at 6:00 and riding out a tankful before we grab breakfast. Either way is fine with me. We can decide as a group at say, MoHicks on Sunday evening?

Just check out this cute couple!

Newbie to the group

Hey all! Sharon and I are heading for Durango also, with a stop over in Denver enroute. We leave the Lake area Sunday morning, stay in Denver Monday night, then on to Durango Tue morning. We're staying at a campgroud outside of town. (RV'ing it this time).

I have a question for the group, and I wave the white flag right up front, am I gonna get stoned (rocks, not buzzed) if I show up on an obnoxious sounding Harley Ultra? Sharon is the Spyder rider.....

Look forward to meeting some of y'all!

Sharon and Scott
