Question about scheduling for this rally!!!?
I need to know when to arrive at the campground . . . never been to this rally before. Should i plan to arrive sometime DURING the 8th or to camp night of the 7th so i am THERE for the 8th???? Maybe it doesn't matter. Making plans now for touring on my way to Spearfish but don't want to be late. Maybe i can join Ex Winger coming from Oregon on the way east at some point.
Should this be "reply to thread" or "new post"? I'll see if get any response.
 
Reply to thread works best so all the info is in one spot... As for arrival times at most events folks just kind of drift in with no specific schedule. If I make it we'll arrive on the afternoon of the 8th.
 
Thanks Wayne! Maybe i should quit being surprised at how fast i get a response to questions and bike problems at nt-owners.org! I keep thinking "wonder if anyone will see this post" but folks have always been great about being helpful here. Gives me more reason to attend at Spearfish.
 
Tourguy, I'll ride up from Greeley on the 8th. I've always gotten to the Rally on Wednesday of Rally week and my impression is that most people get to Spearfish on that day. If you were to get there on the 7th, I'm pretty sure that there would be other people there. Whatever works...works.

This is my kind of rally. The organization is very lightly done. The only scheduled event has been the Saturday night pizza party and swag giveaway. Most people leave on Sunday morning.

I look forward to seeing you there!
 
Phil beat me to this one. I had this written, but Phil posted first.

Some folks come early, some come late. Some leave early and some may never leave for all I know. There isn't much of a schedule. There are informal day rides on various routes (some of which are even planned) during the days, but some folks never leave camp. It is pretty laid-back. In the past we have had pizza delivered on Saturday night and some door prizes. That's about it for the schedule. I don't know what is planned for this year other than we are at a different campground. You can count on meeting some great friends and enjoying riding stories and camaraderie in the evenings.

If I make it this year I'll come early for once and then leave early Friday and do a 750 mile road burn for home so I can get to an archery tournament on the 11th and 12th. I hate to miss the pizza, but I don't want to miss our state tournament either.
 
Yeah, you'll be fine getting there early, I plan on being there some time on the 8th. FYI pizza and giveaways are on Friday.

Absolutely! There will be lots of folks there riding something other than an NT or an ST.

For the record - I have my reservations made at Bell's Motor Lodge!! Let's make that the official unofficial motel for all those who aren't camping. We had a lot of fun last year sitting out front, sipping adult beverages and swapping lies.
 
Hey Doug, Did you get same room? or at least same area on the Office leval?

Speaking of bikes LOL for all I Have the new red one I will be on the Ultra Classic If Grand Daughter comes with me as planned at this time. The FJR with canyon cages is not pinion friendly.

Sorry but just found out the campground rate is $7.50 per night, the $4 rate is for church and school groups.
