Besides locals and Phoenix area, others drove from Colorado and us from N. Idaho (probably the furthest of all) in our minivan.
Anyway, this thread was more about having fun on the dark side with non-pavement adventures. SOORTA is a beast all to itself.
Jeff and Darla from Arkasas
Al and Sandy from New Hampshire or Vermont, I forget
Both teams are quick, and so much fun to ride with and hang around with. We spent time with both teams at ETOR 2018.
My wife and I spoke with Mark R on the phone in an effort to plan on attending. For various reasons it was not possible this year. Maybe next year...
