Looked at the dates from 2016 way back and guessed it would be the weekend of 14-16th in 2017....guessed wrong! :-(  Will be using my routes from the NGC way back in 2011 and checking out the area the week before since I asked for leave the wrong week!  Y'all have fun - wish I could hang around for 2 weeks but can't.

  This date was chosen because we/some wanted to get away from the 15-18 April weekend due to tax season ending, graduations, and proms.  Seems there are always conflicting dates for some of us.  Hope to see you at another event.  Ride safe,

My wife and I are going to be there. Coming down from Indiana.  The mountains should be beautiful this time of year and I love curvy road riding. We're actually going to be on vacation all week. Any other "must see " towns or areas anybody would recommend?

Then there's that little problem with Easter on April 18. A buddy who was excited to go on a dual-sport ride this Saturday had to cancel because his wife invited kids, grandkids and relatives this weekend- 39 people. NO WAY he will get to ride the Dual-Sport!

The numbers on my phone calendar are very small- misread it.

Is this Rally still going to happen? Now the forecast says 80% Friday, 50% Saturday, and 90% Sunday! That doesn't sound like much fun to me!!!

I just called and cancelled my room. With 100% chance of rain on Sunday... no I don't need to do that.
The person at the Quality Inn told me she had one MSTA member cancel who had a broken ankle and one who had a three month old bike that wouldn't start.
For you who do go... I hope I'm wrong. I've attended many a wet Helen event in the past.
