Yeah man! I just got back today from a week of being out of pocket and raising heck at GSMTR.
So I’m about to hit it hard and try to get the trails done this week. Should be very similar to last year 👍
 
I Just got back from being out of pocket at GSMTR for a week! I had a blast but now it's time to put my nose to the grindstone!!
Event activity info emails will go out later this week and I'm working hard to get trail selections ready to publish soon.
We are less than a month away! See you in Silverton!!!

I'm thrilled to announce that this year, we will be offering day rides to the Ouray Hot Springs Pool at Cruisers on the Rockies! If you're searching for a fun family outing away from the trails, this is the perfect opportunity. Enjoy swimming and soaking in the pools, freshen up with a shower, and explore the charming town of Ouray—all while taking in the breathtaking views along the Million Dollar Highway.
It's gonna be a blast!!!

@ga12r1 , what is the plan for runs that get cancelled due to a trail closure?

Just a quick post for awareness. If you've signed up for a Black Bear run, be aware that it's currently not open due to landslide damage from last year. Rumor is that it won't open at all this year. The county has solicited bids to get it fixed but I haven't heard that anyone was selected yet.

Just a quick post for awareness. If you've signed up for a Black Bear run, be aware that it's currently not open due to landslide damage from last year. I'd recommend you have a backup plan in case it doesn't open. Rumor is that it won't open at all this year. The county has solicited bids to get it fixed but I haven't heard that anyone was selected yet.

Ah, I should have read the descriptions. Thanks for clarifying.

I just came here to say that a miracle has happened and now I feel like a total dork for suggesting it wouldn't just this morning.

Wonder what it’s like driving that thing over Black Bear pass? My 200 is wide enough for me!

At least it can rotate in place on the switchbacks.
 
We're less than a week away. I'm starting to get a little excited. I've still got a long list of things I need to get done on Friday before I head up on Saturday and disperse camp for a couple days over the weekend and then on to Kendall on Monday.
1) Modify camper hitch so my tire swingout will open when towing my camper (so I can open the rear liftgate and tailgate while towing)
2) Change the engine oil and ATF in the Cruiser, and check all the other fluids
3) Finish trimming the mattress topper to fit the new camper bed
4) Rotate camper tires, inspect brakes, grease wheel bearings on the camper
5) Pack up all the clothes, gear and food needed for a week of camping

Who else has a list that's too long and can't possibly get it all done?
 
Heads up, I made it to Ouray yesterday (Thurs) just in time to see the smoke roll in from several nearby fires.

Edit: sky is clear since then

Sadly, as everyone else is showing off their packed up rigs, I am one of those who have a little work ahead of me. Luckily I am only 6.5 hrs away if I don't make any stops. One of the big things that I am now stressing over is this:

KDSS Relocate w/o Opening Shutters?

Also, for your first step, I had the exact same issue running an M101A2 trailer. One of the things I was able to take care of was installing this bad boy.

What @MongooseGA says is real. Takes an awesome trip like this to motivate on many items.
