Great idea Marc.ThumbUp
Are the dates September 4 through September 8 the final dates?:Shrug:
Previously I said I don't know the area well enough to lead rides. That's still true but; I'm willing to give it a try if I can get some coaching to do pre-ride GPS planning.
Dennis I agree on the dragon but living about an hour from there I guess its not as special to me as others.I did map out a route taking in the dragon and Cherohala with Bald river falls thrown in.I didn't go on that ride last year so I don't know the exact route that was took but I posted a link to my version in the planning forum if you want to check it out.I could make changes but the time involved makes for a long day to start with.
Ed I used google maps for the route I posted but I already had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do.America Rides Maps is based out of Waynesville and has maps of the area with some rides already marked that are inexpensive and with the written directions could probably be transferred to the gps.I'm far from experienced in this.Hope this helps.
I have joined the group and would be willing to help with the BBQ if you have it again this year. I would lead rides but I do not know the area. Would be happy as a Tail Gunner and keep Big Mike on the up and up.

Marc, I am not an expert by any means but I am reasonably adept at using the Garmin HomeBase mapping software. The wrinkle is the new GPS unit and the unknown fashion it will react to a route plotted on the software and then imported. I should have that ironed out by the time I get there. What I need is the local knowledge of where the photo op and food stops are so we can avoid "fly-bys" and turn arounds.
I looked for your Google Map link but didn't find it. Please repost.
I already have America Rides Maps on my acquisition list for this season.
Several of us did the Dragon and Cherohala ride last year. Yes it was a long day but I really enjoyed it. I've been looking at some of the other rides in that areas such as Devil's Triangle, Moonshiners28, Diamondback etc. For one thing, there is no shortage of great riding in that area.
