I appreciate the one week slip in date, it'll allow me to attend two years in a row.  With any luck I'll get out to Datil this year also.

The Verde Valley Fair is always the first weekend in May...The View Motel was nice enough to give us a "discount" this year if we moved it forward one weekend, so this year, we did... :thumb: :cool: :smiley:

If you have never been to the New Mexico State Guzzi Rally in Datil, it is well worth the ride or journey! :smiley:

I am not staying overnight at The View Motel this year...mainly because I only live 30 minutes away.  However, I can bring my laptop if required. :thumb: :wink: :cool:

Anybody interested in sharing a Motel room with a good looking, wait scratch that, with another motorcyclist?

I am planning to come, but will have to remain tentative, so am reluctant to make a reservation for myself.  If anyone is interested in sharing that would be great.  My plans if I come, would be to be there Fri. and Sat. nights.

Well, I am already sharing mine with another motorcyclist (new V7 III owner, in fact) - and she is quite good looking! Sorry, Alan!  :grin:

Not sure if I can make it this year.  This is Mothers Day weekend, and with a new grandson and a D-I-L who does the family thing, I may have to be in Los Angeles for Sunday.

If I do make it, I'll be on the Goldwing.

Hopefully, I'll see all y'all there.

I plan to ride down from Colorado for the rally 10-11 May, but have run into a couple of planning issues.

- I prefer tent camping to a motel. The rally flyer shown on this thread recommends the Rio Verde campground. They do not have tent camping sites available. Possible alternative is Dead Horse Ranch State Park, but I'm not sure of the location relative to the rally site.

- I tried to email Mike for suggestions, but the email address shown on the flyer does not work.

Is this a motel-centric event where folks don't camp? That's fine by me, just need to plan accordingly. If tent campers are welcome, any suggestions on where a poor pilgrim might find a place to set up a tent for Fri-Sat nights close to all the Guzzi action?

Correction - - you CAN camp at the Rio Verde RV park...as people have set up a tent there before...

JJ - I'm sure you're correct, I'm just going by what the person I talked to at Rio Verde told me 2 days ago - they no longer have tent camping available and therefore could not take a reservation for tent camping. I reserved a camping spot at Dead Horse Ranch state park.
