Title: 2012 fall rally location
Post by: Sportfaller on September 21, 2011, 08:19:21 AM
There was a lot of talk about "heading west, young man" for the next fall rally, getting away from having to run deerfield twice a day to get to the good riding. So..... I nominate Deerfield Lake resort to be the next location. http://www.deerfieldlakeresort.com/ (http://www.deerfieldlakeresort.com/)  I'll stop by sometime and see if they do group rates.

yea, thats lame! maybe with the late date of the fall rally, they could make an exception. i do think the location would be really great to get to the good riding. there is a gate out of the camp that goes to miles of incredible trails. closer than those at the KOA.

Last spring our group stopped there for gas and food.  The owner, after hearing about our group, was very interested in accommodating us (including group rates) for a future rally.
Just a suggestion, maybe we should consider this place for the spring rally.  At this higher elevation the nights might be pretty cold in the fall for the tent guys. Lonesome Dave

I was hoping that at some time we could get further south. Not sure waht the Hot Springs area has to offer in the way of trails and what not but I was hoping that the South loop that has been discussed would have been on this past weekends plan.

A change of scenery would be good.

That all being said........I'm always up for anything. I'm not real picky.

I agree with Dave (LD). Very kind and accomodating to us grubby, dusty, talkers. Nice place and fun riding.

Stopped there during the Sturgis Rally. Nice place. The gal running the campground said it will be under new ownership by November, maybe they will change the dog rule.

I was reading a short ADV ride report on Wyoming & Black Hills and was surprised to see a picture of Cheryl (owner of Deerfield Lake Resort). Towards the bottom of the page.

If any of you guys stop by there this fall, be sure and tell her that she's famous now. Ha.
