In order to provide the highest level of safety for rally attendees, it is suggested that each attendee print out, and fill out a KawaNOW ICE form located below. After filling it out, this form is to be folded and stored in the rider's mesh pocket located in the left hard bag of their Nomad. In case of an emergency, this form can help authorities or KawaNOW members locate emergency contacts and aid in treating the rider if hospitalized.

You may now make your reservations! You can book by phone or online, but please make sure you mention you are with the KawaNOW Group when booking! Since most will arrive the night before the rally officially begins, I have the entire establishment blocked out for Aug 22-25 (30+ rooms).

You have until May 31, 2011 (or until full) to make your reservation before they open the place up to other potential bookings. I think (hope) we will fill this place up fairly quickly, so don't wait too long before making your reservation! There are rooms with single Queen beds and rooms with two Queen beds. There are several multi-room suites available if a group wishes to share in the expense. Availability is first come first served.

Rides

Three long group rides are planned. It's your choice whether to ride along or do your own thing. One ride will take us deep into the Six Rivers/Klamath National Forests along a remote twisty road that follows the Trinity and Klamath Rivers. Another will take us straight up Hwy 101 along the southern Oregon Coast to Seven Devils Recreation Area just south of Coos Bay. The third will take us south down Hwy 101 through the largest of the Giant Redwood trees, along the "Avenue of the Giants". All of the rides should be very enjoyable and provide plenty of great photo opportunities!
