    Added it to the list on page 1.
    This sounds like a ride I'd like to do, but I'm hoping I can get johngil to lead one to the salt trams again for Saturday. Maybe he wants to do this one instead. John is a really good ride leader if you can get him to do it.


    For lighter bikes we have a track into White Spot Mountain that is pretty awesome. You end up across DV from Chloride Cliffs. There are a couple of hidden campsites up there that are pretty cool.


    See if you can spot 'waldo-gil' in the center. :D

    Here's another view from up there. That's Furnace Creek at the very far end of the valley.

    Maybe your union could reorganize and fire a few dozen administrators so you teachers can teach the kids since that is the whole point.

    I've been wanting to do a group ride for a couple of years. I found out my good friend Spank is doing this one. I qualify as a Noob. I am in. Put me on the waiting list but I will crash at his site #37. If that doesnt work I will stay in Beatty at the casino.:1drink

    Riding in/ F800GS/ camping (w/ spank in site #37)/ Thurs-Sat/ all meals

    Lat time I saw an ADVers sampling some of his witches brew........it was not a pretty sight. Passed out feet hanging out of the tent. Barely able to ride the next day. I won't mention his name unless he is up for the abuse.

    thanks joel. If I can make it and manage to get added, its a awfully tall order to make brew for 200 peeps. Maybe make 20 gallons or so and have it as part of one of the dinners. Even with 20 gallons we'd pretty much have to limit it to probably 1 each.

    I'd better start brewing!!!! Just in case! :evil

    FYI - assuming I make the list, I will be crashing Yeti's campsite (He is #6 on list). I have a 2 person tent so I take up very little space. I would also like to do all 3 days:
