Interesting in that I am entered in a rally called the Thin Air TT out of Montrose, Co near Ouray being held July 27-29th. This endurance rally is unique in that it is broken up into two separate legs with a mandatory overnight - 15 hours on Sat plus another 10 on Sunday. Not to rain on your parade Phil, but I'm already committed to this event and if anyone else is interested in trying an endurance rally but without having to ride for 24 hours straight, you can check them out at http://www.users.qwest.net/~robnort/tattintro.html I'm sure I'll be covering some of the same sights you are planning only a month early and looking forward to it. -- Dave Biasotti // Fremont, CA > > Date: Fri, 1 Jun 2001 14:35:16 -0600 > From: Phil Benson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Supplemental Oxygen Tank Tour (SOTT) > > I made my reservation for the Nordic Inn, Twin Lakes Colorado for the > nights of August 13 and 14.
