Idaho IBDR in 2024

[Herzog]

According to the route Marc posted, I would likely be in for marker 2 to 5/6

Being up here in Idaho, I feel I need to be placed on the list (dates pending).

 

[glockman]

I'm in for at least part of it and probably on an adv bike.

That’s pretty much the parts I would not want to miss. Jarbidge is waypoint #1 and could easily be skipped by any or all attendees. It’s an easy separate overnight trip for most of us.

Waypoint #6 parallels highway 12, so you can exit the dirt and make great time coming back on asphalt.

I doubt we’ll be able to run the entire length of the IDBR from Nevada to Canada. Its just a ton of time. I would really like to make it from Stanley, ID to interstate 90, though. We all have a lot of research to do in the mean time.

I’ve never been on any of the IDBR route between those points, but I’ve taken my work truck as close as I possibly could over the last few years. It’s a large section of Idaho that absolutely need to fill in on my personal “been there” map.

Looks like a possible pass through Idaho City. Lots of good Huckleberry ice cream can be found there.

Idaho City is a good possibility I think. We will definitely need several refuel and resupply points at towns larger than most of the small ones along the route. Nobody wants to pay $9 for fuel and I don’t want to pack the full 7 days of food and water.

Very interested and watching this post. I would be in a Landcruiser of one model or another.

With as much interest as we have, it might be good to split the group in two, especially when we start nailing down dates.

Love the concept and would love to participate. Just not sure this far out, since we have commitments in many areas

Would be a great way to use our scrambler as an "expedition" rig

Too true.

A buddy tried to do the whole thing by himself last year. He started at Jarbidge. I'm not sure which section or sections but he said he had a few whole days of Murdoch basin style baby heads that slowed him way down. And he had to bail out for some repairs at one point and lost a couple more days. He ended up running out of time way short of finishing the route.

I could probably meet the convoy in Jarbidge. I have many friends who live there from visiting there for about 15 years running. Such a wonderful place with even better people.

A very hopeful maybe here.

IT’s acceptable to file a LOA for this.

 

[TRD270]

Like to go but as usual it’s a firm possibility of a definite maybe for me.

Bump. Snow levels will be a huge factor in the timing of this trip. Fire season is also a large influence.

Still interested pending dates.

I'd like to know dates too, Some of this would be great since I'm here.

I have a pretty open summer since we won't be racing this year, so I am definitely interested if the dates work
