Always LOTS of FUN

Absolutely. A great time with some great people. Unfortunately I won't be able to go this time because I will be away on another adventure. (Ecuador!)

Dual sport bikes but mostly paved riding. Although their definition of "paved" probably differs from ours. That was certainly true in Costa Rica.  I'll have a DR650,  Nancy will have a DR200. Both equipped with soft luggage and a GPS loaded with "suggested" paved routes.  It's selfguided (i.e. no ride along guide or support vehicle). Lodging is prearranged but how we get there each day is up to us. We are a "group". There are 10 of us, 3 couples are 2-up on V-Stroms. Room for more if you're interested.

..so not to put too fine a point on it, but if I were to say it runs from February 27th thru March 4th...would I be completely correct?
partially correct?... or just plain wrong?  :-\   Not to put an even finer point on it  :P ;D...if I want to be sure that I didn't miss
any group breakfasts or dinners...what days should I be there?

Regardless, I'm planning on attending and currently so is my Brother-in-Law so ..plus 2...just not sure what day to show up but we'll
probably arrive on Sunday the 26th. We'll be lodging at a local hotel.

I don't have enough get up an go to write up a full ride report, so I'm just going to make a few remarks and post a few cell phone photos here. If someone else writes up a report in the ride report area, then I'll move this post over there.

I had a great time and enjoyed some wonderful food and conversations at this event and I want to thank everyone that contributed to make it that way. I especially want to thank  Roger, Wanda, Eldon and Janet for all that they did. (I hope I got the names correct.) My brother-in-law Joe and I had a lot of fun. THANKS!  :clap:
