Life keeps on getting in the way. My wife suffered a TIA in June. Fortunately, she recovered completely. But it changed our entire summer's plans. She is already back in school teaching her last 3rd grade class before retiring. I'm sticking close to make sure she continues to do well. Perhaps we can make it next year.
Have fun everyone and please, please post some pictures here so I can see what I missed.

RJ, yeah, it's me. Based on Susan's advice that I'd have to camp in a "special area" I decided to take a pass. I've been to other rallies that shunt you off to a "special area" and it's not the kind of experience I wanted for my first HU rally. Or any rally for that matter. If in your future travels you should happen across a HU rally that welcomes guys with dogs, hit me up on ADV (not here as I don't really monitor this forum.) I'm still interested in going to one.

Mad Englishmen
Susan, after 2 HUBB UK and HUMM in Morocoo its time I came over to your neck of the woods to see how you do it over the pond! So, I'll be riding most of the Trans Canada Highway, picking up a buddy near Portland and heading to Nakusp via (?!) Prudhoe Bay in time for the meet. We will be bringing some proper English tea, but for obvious reasons we won't be pre-booking our tickets but hope you'll let us come in and join you?!

Hello all this will be my first meeting as well, I'm bring my girlfriend along. We both don't currently have bikes or bike licences but I'm sure it will be an amazing time.
I asked on the FB page about booking camping and due to a delay in response ended up booking 3 days of camping followed by 3 days of rv camping, I was wondering if there a way to get my 3 day camping refund.
As we will be in a truck and travel trailer (were off work for a month traveling bc and the rockies).
I've been slowly doing research and planning a trip on a DR650SE to south america and hopefully will buy bikes next year, take a year to gear them up and get her used to riding before we take off the following year.
Can't wait to see all the bikes, learn lots, hear the travel stories, gain knowledge and see ALEX!

My first rally!
Looking forward to the event, meeting some cool people and learning some tips. I've got a lot of experience traveling in South America and SE Asia if anyone is planning travels there.
Does anyone know where can I find a full schedule(times etc.)? Also interested in the riding clinics on Sat, if anyone the info for that.

Hi Susan/Grant, further to my last message, Rich and I are on track to pass through Nakusp on our way south having been to Deadhorse (Prudhoe Bay). We've had to adjust our schedule so are planning to drop in for Thursday night only. Grant advised Rich that you have enough presenters so we cant sing for our supper and we're unable to work out whether we can pay just for one night as the website says ' its too late for pre-payment, just turn up - there's space available', or something like that, so that's what we're going to do in the hope you can put us up for the night!!
See you later this week.
Mark
