[emrat:10719] Ride to Montrose 7/20...

RATS: With only 2 weeks to go it's probably not too early to start thinking about the ride out to Triumphs in the Rockies in Montrose.

Tentatively I'm planning on taking a long-ish route that will take me through the Eisenhower Tunnel and then on to Copper Mountain, over Fremont Pass through Leadville and then over Independence Pass to Aspen, up to Carbondale for lunch, and then down through Hotchkiss and Crawford riding the awesome CO-92 along the North edge of Black Canyon to Sapinero, and then West to Montrose.

Google Maps says 327 miles and a hair under 7 hours.

Obviously, with the fire in Basalt they may close CO 82 West of Aspen and if they do I'll have to come up with a different plan. I may decide to stay on I-70 and go over Grand Mesa instead.

For those planning to take 285, just keep in mind that because of the fire in South Park they are diverting traffic just past Fairplay onto CO 9 to Hartsel and then West on US 24 to Johnson Village. It's not a big detour (I don't think it adds more than 5 miles) but traffic can be heavy so be ready for it.

Departure time will depend on the route but my goal is to arrive in Montrose no later than 5:00pm which will likely mean an earlier kickstands-up time (8:00 or thereabouts.)

I plan on going a more southerly route for the return on Sunday, 7/22. I'm going to try to avoid all the traffic that seems to clog up both 285 and US 24 between Hartsel and Woodland Park.

RE: [emrat:10718] Fwd: Happy 4th of July! Get 50% off REVER premium through Sunday!

Wolfpack is another app that looks interesting, though I haven't had much time to experiment with it. There was an ADV type rally I was looking into this summer that makes use of it.

All,

Thanks to Jake and his great presentation of Rever. I got an email today offering 50% off the premium membership which makes it just under $30 for the year. I know a few of you were interested in it, so i figured I would pass the coupon on to everyone.

I have also planned out a ride to Montrose for the rally this year if anyone is interested.

They just allowed me to renew mine a month early when they offered the 50% for Labor Day. They had to do some sort of manual override. I am guessing they won't let me stack on another year this month 😊

[emrat:10715] Triumph in the Rockies Rever Group

Thanks all who came to the RAT meeting last night and listened to my babbling. A quick recap, and for all those who couldn't make it:

REVER is a motorcycle trip planning & tracking app. They're a startup based out of Eagle, co-founded by the guy who started Butler Maps.
Sign up via the mobile app or website: http://rever.co
We've created a "community" for Triumph in the Rockies this year. Here's a link to that so you can join: https://a.rever.co/groups/766
If you're planning a ride out, you can add it to Rever and include it in the group for others to follow. Or send me the route and I can do it.
Tavis already mapped his route: https://a.rever.co/rides/974834

I also gave out a code for a free month of premium access ... but as you may have seen already, they sent out an email today for 50% off a year's subscription. Which is a way better deal. Use code: JulyFour2018 ... Expires Monday.

Thanks again, all.

Jake

P.S. Email support@rever.co and tell them they should hire Jake ;-)

Re: [emrat:10715] Fwd: Happy 4th of July! Get 50% off REVER premium through Sunday!

Awesome. Thanks for sending that out Tavis.

BTW ... If you go to the community page and click "add community ride" in the top right you should be able to link your ride to the group. Certainly not the best workflow.

Re: [emrat:10713] July Meeting and Triumph in the Rockies Update

Good luck with your new brewery!

Hello everyone! Another month has somehow gone by and it's time again for our monthly EMRAT meeting! The meeting will take place as usual, at the Interstate Kitchen & Bar at 10th and Santa Fe in the Arts District.

Official meeting start is 7:00 pm, but arrive early to grab a bit and socialize. Parking is on street or in the free garage accessible from 10th.

This month, Jake Lehner will talk about a really cool mobile application for riders called Rever. Many of you may be familiar with this already. Also, let's all wish Steve and Annette all the best in their new adventures! I will miss seeing them regularly.

As for Triumph in the Rockes, all of the t-shirt printers seem to be backed up. If you would like to register and include a t-shirt, please do so by 9:00 am on July 5th. If you do not want a t-shirt, then the registration deadline is July 12th, so I can have a count to the caterer.

FINALLY, we are doing a soft opening tonight and tomorrow at our brewery (9719 W Coal Mine Ave, Littleton). Tonight will start at 4:00 pm and we have Wood Hill BBQ truck to serve food. Thanks also to Tim for taking over tonight's meeting.

Cheers, and wish us luck as we finally try to get this thing off the ground!

Manuel
