Hello all, This event is coming up soon, August 19, 20, 21. I need to get some feedback on rooms sorta quick: I just got the rates from Durango Mountain Resort. I think this is pretty good and she's sending me a contract. Need you guys to sound off about it and confirm you're attending: At Purgatory Village, they offer: King Room - $83 plus tax, plus $13 resort fee Studio for 2 - $90 plus tax, plus $14 resort fee Studio for 4 - $98 plus tax, plus $15 resort fee 1 bedroom condo (sleeps 4) - $121 plus tax, plus $15 resort fee 2 bedroom condo (sleeps 6) - $182 plus tax, plus $18 resort fee There are many of these rooms available. Also, she quoted me some condos in other buildings that sleep many people each, but there are only one or two of each available and they're much more expensive (but not necessarily on a per person basis). I need to get some numbers ASAP. I have to fill at least five rooms per night for two nights for the pricing to stick, otherwise, they'll revert back to standard pricing. Let me know. Thanks. |

OK, I made the final arrangements today for the hotel for the Durango trip. We'll be staying at Durango Mountain Resort. They can be contacted at 970-247-9000. After 12pm tomorrow, our group rate will be loaded and ready to book. Ask for the Southwest Buell Rally. The rooms and rates are as above: King room: $83 plus $13 resort fee Studio for 2: $90 plus $14 resort fee Studio for 4: $98 plus $15 resort fee 1 BR: $121 plus $15 resort fee 2 BR: $182 plus $18 resort fee These are all at the Purgatory Village Hotel. Dates of stay are check in on 8/19, stay two nights, depart 8/21. In response to the inquiry about routes up to the event: I don't know. If people want to meet up and ride up as a group, we can do that. If people have peculiar schedules and need to arrive earlier or later, they can certainly go up on their own. I agree that going up through Chama and Pagosa is much more scenic and enjoyable. Given the time, I'd opt for that too. However, if I'm working that day (which I might), I might have to take the speed route up US550. Ping me with questions or concerns. |

I still need to find someone to share a room or suite with. I'll post on New Mexico and Arizona site, too. |

The ride to Durango:
My clutch went out on the way there, about 25 miles from the resort.
This guy was waiting for us.
The next day just hanging around.
Not really a S2 trip without breaking out the tools to do some clutch work.
All back together
