Other people have tried, but the dealers won't move until the letters come out. I'll be out of town from the 14-29 of May. I'll get on it right after I get back. It might be a near thing, but I'll do my best.

Merch has been arriving all week. My wife saw her sweatshirt and wanted more shirts.

Nice shirts and stickers. Are you guys going to be displaying your race name and # on your bikes? I did on mine.

I'll probably have some stickers on it but no numbers. The support vehicle will be sterile. I have concerns about faster riders doing things to bring down the wrath of the locals. I'm already going to stand out. I don't need to draw any additional attention.

Dang, I didn't think about the fast riders making the town mad. I feel like the small towns will be interested in the event more than mad at it. I'll be labeled up tho.

Small towns, sure. Small town cops, not so much.

Yeah maybe so. I've been all done with my bike for a little while now. If I'm packing anything extra I have to carry it on the plane with me. Now I get to worry about the potential for a very cold ride on days 2 and 3 according to the average temp in June for Mccall Idaho. Than the extreme heat down south. Not a very big fan at all of the ridewithgps app. I might not even use the app at all. This years lack of the release of the route bothers me. I think that it is unique for this year but it makes me worry about not having time to study the route and fuel stops. My range is only 225-250 miles with my setup. It will be so much fun climbing some big mountains with this tiny bike tho. Oh and I see dabinche shows he's running 50cc with a 80% handicap. Curious as to what that bike will be.

I'm running with an extra 4 gallons of gas. I'm very conservative in my fuel mileage estimate. I can potentially do entire days without stopping at a gas station but I am planning to top off at 2-300 miles depending on the options available.
I expect it to be pretty cold until we get to Colorado, at least in the mornings. I will switch from cold weather to hot weather base layers probably before leaving Pocatello. I lived in Idaho for a while and spent a good amount of time in McCall. It does stay chilly in the summer.
Once my new clutch pads are installed in a couple days, I'm going to be climbing from 1400 feet to around 7200 feet loaded as I would be for the event to see how I feel about the 13T sprocket. I'm bringing 13-15T with me, though, I doubt I will use a 15 at all. I'd prefer not to swap but I can't make up my mind which one I want to run.
I opened RidewithGPS but I won't be using it. Maybe as a backup. I'm quite happy with the DMD2 I'm running and glad I ditched Garmin (famous last words).
Bin is riding up from his house to the start. I may be taking his spares up for him but he hasn't decided if he needs my help or whether I will be passing through his town early enough to catch him before he leaves. I don't know what he is running but I'm sure its crazy. I think it is an Aprilia SR50 but you can't buy them in the US.

I saw you were talking about sprocket changes. I'm just running the stock 14t as I want my ABS to be working on roads I've never been down before. Nice to see your getting a mountain run/test. DMD2, your just talking about, how do you like it? I may have to look into that.

It helps that I live on a mountain. The test roads are right outside my house.
I like DMD. It is android only, though. I'm running their hardware (tablet, harness, controller) on the bike and in the support van on a Samsung Tab Active5. The fact that I can just take a gpx file, drop it into my google drive and open it in the software is nice. No cords or proprietary software required.

Nice, I'll have to check it out. I see it's a motorcycle specific app.
