Just want to get this started. I'd like to plan a HITR trip primarily for bikes. I don't think we'll turn away 4x4s or ATVs but I'd like to be able to do an in and out in one day. That's a tall feat for a 4x4. The plan would be Fri-Sun. Friday we all arrive and setup base camp. I'd like to drive in a ways to setup base camp. This will do a couple things, it will allow us to carry little to no gear on our bikes, making it so we can move quicker. It will also allow most bikes that can complete 60ish miles on a tank to be eligible to run the trail without much worry or without having to carry much extra fuel. It will also allow us to have a far less hectic ride. The rest of the day Friday, we'll screw around on the bikes/around camp, etc. Have a good meal that night. Then we'll get an "early" start on Saturday riding. Beat the heat and give us plenty of time. I see no reason we can't do an in and out in one day. Then on Sunday we'll screw around a bit more and as people want to, pack up and head home. I guess you could leave Saturday night if you're trying to be home for Sunday, but I'd hate to see anyone leave after a long day of riding and not have the rest they should have.
So, let's get a list of guys that would like to come. I'll update this first post with the list. I would like to keep it to 10 bikes or less. (I know that's a good sized group, but I think even with a group that large, we can make good time on the bikes). Also, let's get some dates out there. I'd like to do it this spring, so in the next couple months. I'm thinking early June as the absolute latest we'd want to do it. I'm good just about any weekend between now and then.
Date: May 24-26
So, post up if you're interested. I'll keep attendance noted as for sure in and maybe in. We need a solid commitment by April 26.
