National Rally

Anyone here going to/been to the National Rally in Moab? I just got the time off approved today, so it looks like I'll be going. Any preferred lodging? I generally stay at the Bowen cuz it's cheeep.

I'm going, about 10 or 12 others from my Club are going. Bit late for bookings right now. Hotels are filling up. I'm not familiar with the Bowen, but I've been at Moab Valley Inn several times, it's mediocre. Trying Super8 this time.

Crap, I completely forgot to make reservations. I still haven't gotten my membership from Solihull yet either, it's been weeks, so I need to track that down too.

If your experience is anything like mine, it could take a while. I think it was about 2 months by the time I got my membership card, they cashed my check, etc. I had actually completely forgotten about it and was pleasently surprised in the mail one day. They do seem to do a lot of trail rides, etc. And the newsletter looks nice, but I haven't seen any for '08 yet.

Well I got in at the Silver Sage. Most of the other places I'd consider, cheap or expensive, were full at least on the weekend. A friend of mine has stayed in the Silver Sage, says it's decent, so hopefully that will work out.

Cool. At the mixer the night before the kickoff event, look for a really tall heavyset guy with glasses, and that will be me or Steve from British Pacific. If the guy has a British accent, that's Steve. I'm the other one.

Well unfortunately I can't get the time off work after all. Hopefully next year.
