Snell or DOT helmets? You go full face for the little ones?

They look big but they r lite and fit them snug. These have interchangeable padding so they can somewhat grow into them a bit.

As of today, 8/19 the itinerary is as follows...
Thursday 9/24 meeting at Mexican restaurant/ shell gas station around noonish 1oclock for those that are getting there early and want to get a ride in, and ride to town rock then where ever we end up after that.
Friday 9/25 meeting at the restaurant/shell and riding to the abandoned train and the prison, (the prison has a nice restaurant called the wardens table) then ride back, some folks may want to regroup later and do some night riding.
Saturday 9/26 meet at restaurant/shell and ride the royal blue trails (top of the world, water falls ect.)
I think that is how it is planned out @Backwoods @JenElio does that sound about right?
Or we can make💩 up as we go along.

@Ridinfool the train and prison are a long days ride, variable by how much pavement you do.
I saw some parties have kids, just thought this should be a discussion topic.
Last time I did this run with @JACKAL we logged somthing like 100 miles that day, and we where only lost half the time,
I think I heard it can be ~70 miles round trip with a little luck.

One possibility is splitting the group at the train.
One group can play a little longer at the train before turning back and taking a more civilized route with appropriate breaks.
Just a thought.

Since I’ve never been on that run I don’t know what trails or roads we will be on. I figure at some point if part of the group wants to head back we can work that out at that time, I did know it was a long ride and @JACKAL said he would lead it ssoooo... thanks for the heads up.

Well, if the shoot gets canceled and you can find a place to stay come on, it’s all good.

I'm in for the long haul plus I'll carry me some extra gas.

Helmets are purchased and ready to ride. Anyone do anything specific for overnight security at the hotel or just chain your machine to the trailer?

Chain to the trailer and insurance. Mostly the insurance though.

I just park mine in a parking spot . I have saw some park back on their trailers . I haven't seen anything taken , but there's a first time for everything . But the way things are now I will park it on the trailer and chain the gate. And progressive insurance.
