Damn, who's going to pick up the slack on picture taking!

You will be missed my friend, we understand other commitments. 

I will post up some pictures as will others, but I always look forward to your "take" on things.

Travel safely and we'll see you next time!

I will drive down Thursday afternoon, stay in the Noor Hotel.

Then drive back home to Orem Saturday after dinner.

Thanks for arranging the meet!

Well Folks we're almost there!  Once again, I will be in Thousand Lakes RV Campground. Not sure what space I will be in.  Large green Safari Zanzibar motorhome towing a white 6x12ft enclosed trailer.  Orange/Copper colored Stelvio.  Please stop by.  I will try to find my neon green shirt so you will know who to look for.  My name is Roy and I look forward to meeting new friends and seeing old ones!

We really had a great time, Roy, you knocked it out of the park with the location and your choice of roads. Hope to see you Utes next year in our backyard!

Thanks Roy, and all the riders.  It gave me a reboot for life.

Thanks to Roy for once again making the Utah NAR a fantastic experience!  Enjoyed meeting some new folks and riding with everyone.  And what great roads. Some of the best anywhere.
Dan, Dennis and I took 2 days getting home and spent Sunday night at the 3 Step Hideaway near Monticello.  Great folks there and a super nice motorcycle focused campground in the middle of nowhere.Highly recommended.

Alan,

Looks like a cool place, but how in the world did you ever find it?  Looks well off the beaten path!!!

I think that’s why it called “Hideaway”.  It is extremely well hidden!  The owners are super folks and they said they want to cater to motorcyclists and not the general public.  It is near the TransAmerica trail and the Utah BDR route, and just far enough from Moab to not be influenced by that crowd.
A friend told me about it.

Gad Zoox! That looks like real fun and a very nice turn-out. Congratulations! Well done.
I've been wearing my treasured Panguitch 2006 T shirt - and trusting everyone is safe.
 
In '06 a friend came up from Tucson. I rode out from MA. (many times to the coast). 

Like thousands of motorcyclist the Pandemic shut me down - I aged out last Feb. My health gave up. I was hoping to catch up to Freddie Marsh.
He rode 'til he was 101 lived to 104. He did it all, including board tracks, hill climbs et al. as Indian Motorcycles' fast guy & test rider.                             

         Be Well. Good Fortune to all.   R3~

Thanks so much for chiming in everyone!  It was my pleasure to host you and I look forward to doing it again in 2025!

Michael, so glad you, Michelle and your son in law enjoyed your time here.  You keep on truckin my friend!  See you in Colorado next year.

Kaladin, we were so honored to have you share your Birthday with us!  Please keep riding and join us again in the future. Let me know if I can help you get out with some "real" riders.....lol

Michael32, so happy you made the ride down!  You had over 600 miles on Friday and handled it like a champ!  If you want other ride ideas or anything reach out to me, happy to help.

Alan, glad the 3 of you were able to enjoy your ride home.  3 Step looks like a great place to hang out. Let's look into the idea you had about doing a Utah dirt thing.

Roebling3, I don't believe I have had the pleasure to meet you, but thanks for sharing your news with us.  We will all face that time and knowing when to hang it up is part of the bargain we make to enjoy the experiences we get to have and keep in our hearts. I have been using my helmet cam to document my trips and the Relive app gives me a quick way to refresh my memory of the wonderful experiences I get to experience.

Thanks Roy, for putting this all together.  The perfect way to spend my 71st birthday.  I got back to Orem in the rain, dry on the inside.  All you dirt riders might be heading for South Carolina to look for that lost jet. . .
