Count me in SubMann,

I'll have to do a few things to ready the bike but time is on my side so it shouldn't be a problem. Add a DRZ400s to the list.

I am probably in. The money's no problem. Just have to see what's going on with work around that time. Also, I only have the bike and would be looking for a ride there.

As we get closer we'll firm up the numbers and see who has what. There are a few trucks and trailers involved so it shouldn't be a problem...

Is this trip still a go?....I think I am going to go back to plan A, which is to rent a KTM450 while I am down there.

I am planning on being there for the week of the 5th to the 9th of May.

I would still like to ride the White Rim Road for one day if anyone would like to join me. I am going to have to figure out a way to carry some fuel for this. The guy renting me the bike is going to help me out with this.

I would love to ride with you guys for a day or two if the invitation is open. Looking forward to this trip. :dr:

This trip is still a go. We've been quiet lately. It will now be hot on the heels of the Vancouver Island Orca ride.

Let us know if you want to work together for transportation, camping etc.

I really want to do the white rim trail. We may need to stash some gas so that we all don't need to buy big tanks for this one ride.

Cheers! :hb:

Hmmmm.... Would be real nice on that 120 mile paved loop up past the LaSalle mountains.. no traffic to be seen... just free range cattle.

Does the 450 EXC  have enough range with the stock tank to do the White Rim Trail. I believe it is 114 miles (or close to that anyway).

Depending on where you start, the loop is more than 120-miles. There is a gas station within Canyonlands NP but it is not always open. It's a good idea to bring extra fuel for the bikes with smaller tanks, or at the very least, a siphon hose just in-case. The riding is amazing but the nearest fuel is in Moab, several miles from the Trailhead to the White Rim Trail.
