I will do it, and will have at LEAST one other yammy with me, which would be rx1yama18. I was going to do it this year but then i tore my ACL. I'll be good to go by next year's!

You got me thinking now, man that was along time ago. We may have done it back then on a Thursday, I'm gonna have to ask the crew if they can remember what day it was. This will work out great for a weekday TY ride. I'm gonna book it now, depart on Tuesday evening and ride Wednesday, do the 500miler on Thursday, ride on Friday and head home Friday night.

Ok Tom!!!!
Sounds as if we need an official TY Sanction for Thursday 500 miler, i might have to leave the wife at home for the 500, she can drive up and meet us in muni for the weekend, although she would be able to do it, i dont know that she will be able to get the extra day or two off from work.... hell maybe i will ride her sled... lol.....

So you're either buying Karen the Attak or I have to find somebody else to swap windshields with eh?onlyblue said:hell maybe i will ride her sled... lol.....
You are right about getting this event moved up a bit scheme of TY though.
We may want to investigate having radios http://www.totallyamaha.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10825&page=1&pp=10&highlight=radio

i can only get my attak if the viper sells.... too much invested in her to trade it in.... so i might have to "suffer" another year on her... lol... the gas mileage savings and the plush ride of her vector might come in handy at the 500 miler....
Is there room for one more middle aged fat guy? If so put I'm in! Always wanted to do this event, now I's got a good reason to.

Ok Terry but you have to promise to behave and not call Tom naughty names so he gets mad and pouts.

There is not a lot of info on the page right now about the event except for results.

SledderSteve has done it before and provides an explanation of how it works.

Well count me out, since I'm now living in Phoenix! I guess I could fly in for a week and do the ride, that would be nice......

I've got a better idea, you get the desert quad riding scene scouted out and some of us will fly out and do that.
