Just trying work out some details.. thx Their site says the gate opening this summer is cancelled due to covid19 but you can still ride about 90% of the way up there to the gate. The rest of it is maybe a mile or so up to a plain old parking lot so you're not missing that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The riding is not the part that costs us money, it's the camping and food mostly. You're essentially paying for the camping experience and getting the riding for free. Food and beverage are the biggest drivers of cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Eric Hall Posted August 6, 2020 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Got some good news! I've just slashed the price $50 to $178. I had someone complain that it was nearly $500 for a couple to attend and while I don't really care that much given the relative price of other similar events and the history of this one, I did start to contemplate how crazy this year has been and how sweet and delicious a Utah ride I did in May was; mostly because we'd all been cooped up so long and were jonesing for some riding and social interaction. Therefore XLADV does thus decree that tickets will be $178 ($208 last year) because it's more important we share this experience together because it's something we love so much and this year has been so damn difficult. I do have two years of food price increases I didn't include last year but if it's revenue neutral this year is not important to me. Many more important things in life. I will have $50 bills for each of your tickets for those who've already purchased tickets. I can send you that via PayPal too prior if you like (just let me know). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Eric Hall Posted August 15, 2020 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 So feel free to practice whatever type of hygiene you’re comfortable with such as masks, hand washing, etc... Rest assured that you’ll be riding, camping and eating more than 6’ apart and the entire event is outdoors. You’re safer at High Sierra than shopping at Walmart.If you’re not sure if you have symptoms or are self quarantining by the day of the event then I’m happy to refund your money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Eric Hall Posted August 15, 2020 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Furthermore, we will be scanning foreheads for temps, have free masks and our caterer will have hand sanitizer available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Morgan Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 I'll probably just be sticking to road riding, I tore my rotator cuff a couple of months ago and it's still sore, but camping and having a beer sounds like just what I need so I'm looking forward to it! Anyone want to ride up with me from socal? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motochefarwi Posted August 29, 2020 My Rides (2) Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 I’m planning to head down on Tuesday Sept 1st.from the Bay Area and stay thru to Friday. Gotta work Saturday. Probably do a walk in (tenting) at Brown Owens campground on the Tuesday. @jasonraster hook up with him on Wednesday. I called and they did say on the VM that they are not accepting any more reservations, for early arrivals that is, nothing to do with this event. If anyone is down there early like I am, happy to hook up. Probably warm up my bones on some dirt. It’s been a while lol! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone want to ride up with me from socal? Check your forum messages. I left you my cell # to ride up together from the IE on Thursday. I was going to suggest we meet up at Chaparral Motorsports in the morning. I'm flexible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
