Chuckwalla... I am coming. :p
I kinda fell into a spot at Chuckwalla on Sept 16th. This is a private event, but if the gates are open it would be cool to meet some of the west coast peeps that can make it out. Or after the day is over, I might have some time to kill before heading back. Travel plans are not solid at this point aside of the plane landing on the 15th. Will know more on Sun. night.
Since I obviously don't know the area, what I am looking at for food, hotel and transportation? Thanks and maybe see ya soon!

Hmmm, looks like trackdaz will also be there on the 16th, so not sure how this is working right now. After they are done maybe? Either way, will be cool if any of you guys are riding with them that day. I will be there!

I am going to do it, but... this will be my longest trip to ride track and I don't depend on others well, not really my thing. Yet, I ask others to trust the same of me, I have to rethink this.

![]() I haven't read the thread so I'm not sure if anyone has answered your question but the area is...desolate. There's nothing around Chuckwalla for 20 miles and outside of there there's only a gas station and another 30 miles before a city. You'll look to stay in Indio if you want to be closest to Chuckwalla while still in a city. edit: looks like you'll be riding during the track day. Any idea which group? Hopefully starting in C while you learn the track, if so I can show you the lines ![]()

Max, I will pm you. Looking forward to the track time and meeting new friends. We (me and my friend Drew) are on track rentals, as of right now I have no clue what they will be. Maybe 250's, maybe liter bikes. Either way...

We usually pit in the southwest corner furthest from the bathrooms. who knows what it will be like since they added garages and more pavement over the summer.

A Cincinnati company, this is a private coaching event for me for 1-2 riders. My client(s) make the reservations and such, and as long as I agree to itinerary and terms, I go.

In both racing and tequila pounding!
Also Chris Smith... "ungodly hot" probably doesn't even begin to describe how hot it will be.... Bring shade, crap loads of water and gatorade, and begin to hydrate at least a week early.

Crap... been super busy guys. Sorry, this trip has been put on TBD status...
Bummer because I was looking forward to coming out but the client is calling the shots here. :\ Maybe Kevin and I will come out just as two riders or something if we can swing it.
