Just read about rally in BMW-ON magazine, pgs 78-9.

Someone is going home with a new R1200 GS Adventure

Sounds like a good time, guess I'm a definite maybe?

Thanks for the link, if I go I will have to do that.

What days would everyone be going down and coming back. I need to see if I have that kind of time to take off work. It sounds like fun. I was just in Puerto viarta a few months ago for the family vacation. I drove a Jeep out in the backcoutnry in Purto Viarta. Very fun but talk about a real dirty place. Ther were some nice places along the coast. Hmmm, I dont even know for certain I could go but that sounds realy fun.

Uhhh, just looking at the hotel cost, or shall I say cuesta. I think my budget will not let me partake in this event. 220 for the rally and at least 100 a night for the hotel My book keeper wont let me bankroll that. I must say I was heavily dissapointed in the pricing down in mexico. There prices were no less than here for stuff. I was very diaapointed in that.
