Sounds like same rides as us on Thursday/Friday. We’re doing Top of the World on Saturday & the Ghost/Union Pacific on Sunday. We’re going to ride Sumpter on our way over to Salmon, ID. CYA there, if not before!

The term "cash grab" comes to mind when thinking of this event. No one in our group or countless others I talked to will ever go to another rally in the pines again Totally unorganized and very poorly ran. Plus the Joe blow who was guiding me to park my toy hauler was not paying attention and cost me the steps to my garage plus the lower siding around the steps. The only good out of the whole mess was seeing good friends.
Did they have the same organizers as previously or did new ones come in when they changed venues?

Same people, just new place...Salmon, ID. couldn’t ride the highway to town, but we did find a trail that got us there. We didn’t end up doing the group rides we signed up for, just explored on our own. Too much dust to follow a long line of riders!

I have been told it wasn't a well planned ride .
It was crazy how unorganized it was not to mention how overpriced stuff was. When they served the $16 dinner the portion size of the meat was the size of a small hot dog. They had so much left over you would of thought they would offer it to people who paid for it. Nope. They had the gall to actually try to sell it back for $5 a ziplock bag.
They also had extra leftover jerseys that the volunteers were wearing that they were selling for $65. Those exact jerseys were being sold by Rexburg Motorsports, one of the venders for $22. WTH is that about? We did all self guided rides but after the piss poor ghost town dinner ride on Thursday we just went out and did our own rides. The so called dinner turned out to be some ice cold nasty chicken, dry potato salad and a stale dinner roll. Definitely not the bbq sandwiches and sides We were promised. We also went to town a couple times to eat and get fuel and not one of the local businesses had a clue that a event was even going on. They had curfews on generators and party noise that was never enforced nor was the campground full signs. Like I before not one person we talked to will ever go to another rally in the pines.
Thanks for all the feedback

Sad to say, Sandfreak is correct in his assessment of this event. I will never support another event offered by BAM Film & Media Productions. Worst event I have ever attended. Even the few vendors that did attend were unimpressed and left early. But on a positive note, St. Anthony dunes were awesome after we left this event!!
I went a few years ago and wasn't impressed with the event so never went again .

I think the only benefit of going to some of these events is to learn new riding areas. I would say that Salmon and McKay Id, where the events have been held, offers some awesome riding. A future Organized Group ride would be perfect without all the event drama. Beautiful area with some beautiful terrain.
Not sure I’d make the trek to Salmon again but definitely to Mackay & Stanley, but not with 2k people!!!! Having various vendors at an event is great to get to know them & getting deals (if they’re willing to that is!)

Sandfreak hit the nail. The event was over sold. To many people to little access and to little planning. The Salmon River Valley is one of the most beautiful places in the lower 48. We had 3 groups and we all left early and stayed in Moore, ID for four days. Had a blast.
