For Wednesday August 6th.
Here is a meet up location to catch inbound Baldy. Cortez has been chosen so whomever arrives early can have an air conditioned place to hang out and even get a bite to eat. Cortez is also the ideal location prior to us heading to Four Corners. So, here goes:
Baldy you have the furthest of us since you are riding in from Richfield, UT to Cortez. That looks to be just a tick under 300 miles. It will take you at least 5-6 hours if hitting I-70 and then down past Moab to Cortez. Let's shoot for a late morning/noon meet up. Would you be able to make it into Cortez by then?
Let's meet at Blondies Trophy Room located at 45 E. Main, Cortez CO 81321 at the corner of Main(U.S. Rt 160) & Beech Street. They open at 11:00 a.m. and their phone number is 970-565-4015. We should be able to hang out in air conditioned comfort while we gather up.
We may even have the local paper courtesy of the Cortez Chamber of Commerce meet us for a photo op and story for their local paper. Not sure but may happen.
For us travelling from South Fork to Cortez the distance is 150 miles. We should be able to ride at an easy pace and maybe even stop off at Mesa Verde National Park to sneak a peak at the Anasazi Ruins.
Once we are rested we can shoot down to Four Corners for The Relay Flag plant in Four States at once!
After the pomp & ceremony we can head back to South Fork for some R&R and further Fellowship of The Flag.
