2013 Top of the Rockies Rally 7/25 to 7/28/2013

OK, I had to do a little digging, but found a hidden calendar with dates posted...

BMWMCC - Calendar

Hope it's right!

Thanks for posting that. I am at this very moment thumbing through my Steve Farson book (early Christmas present) and Butler map attempting to lay out a two week trip for this summer. I'm really hoping that I can attend TOR and do the 100,000' ride all on the same trip. Just waiting now to see when the 100,000' ride is scheduled.

I don't see myself missing out on that trip... unless I run into any kind of hardship.
And we don't have tsunamis here, so the ships are usually in the water and I don't drive there.

Cool, TOR! I need to decide which bike to ride. I got this big goofy KTM that I can haul a lot of crap on and go really fast across northern AZ/NM, but I really like my Xchallenge better. I might just have to adjust my expectations regarding my rate of speed across the vast flat boring part of the trip so I can enjoy the steep dirty part better.

It's too early for me to know if I can join in next year's festivities... there's also a very good chance I will be on a family vacation to Alaska that month which will soak up the budget.

Sorry, now it's quoted and locked in forever...
Best to wash your eyes out with bleach.

Speaking of Blatz, I'll take one of those any day of the week. I grew up on that stuff...


These guys are coming to the rally too!

Thank you! I was just at their website a couple of days ago poking around, don't know how I missed that, all I saw was their 2012 events. But the really great thing is that I should be able to do both events. My wife will hate me for this but this is going to be great!
