Everyone in the midwest area - I think it would be cool to caravan out to the GOX. I am planning on going this year. I know it is early, but you know what they say - "early bird blah blah blah...." Any suggestions?

I would be interested. Is Labor day week the week? When do you have to be there by? Can we get a caravan of Illinois or Chicago area X's leaving on Aug. 29 or 30? to meet up with the other Midwest groups somewhere? I believe that I had seen a post about Mtn. biking, and I assume that there would be plenty of that along with hiking, the towns of Ouray, Silverton, Durango and ghost towns? I have never been in SW Colorado before but have always wanted to go and this would be my first GOX then. My X is stock, but would it be worthwhile getting some new tires by then?

Xman6- Sounds great! I will be putting in my vacation request for the week of Labor day. When do you plan on leaving? Where is Mt. Zion? Hopefully we can get some others from this area? Rubber Duckie "I Think We Got Us A Convoy". Or was it Pig Pen?

Hopefully we won't have any lay-overs on I-70 like last year like: ride up to any auto accidents, tractor-trailer fires and tipped over cattle trailers with cattle running wild on the interstate!
This year I'm bringing traffic cones that I have in the garage to use on the trip incase this happens again since club members who are fireman/police like to help!

Thats funny, I never mentioned this to anyone but I almost took out some cows on the way back from Moab(after GOX). I was coming back on Route 666(no joke) and this helacious dirt/sand storm started out of no where. After I got through it there were cows standing right next to the 2 lane 65 mph road. These were not free range cows, somehow they got out of the fence that was 20 ft away. Wierd. John
