We're very close to a deal with a hotel for the InZane 10th anniversary.
We'll be announcing the location in a few days. In the meantime, here's another hint....

It's a state that has been recently colored on my states ridden map.
If you've been paying attention, that's a pretty BIG clue.

R J · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 07:22:20

I'd say Michigan.

Dave Ritsema · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 07:40:56

Michigan? Who would want to go to Michigan?
Oh wait...I LOVE Michigan!

Normandog · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 08:04:20

Doing a little web-sleuthin (It's good to be a geek!

) looks like Michigan it is...

Hey I said MI weeks ago,guess great minds think alike, or maybe you heard me say it and there is only one great mind here.

bsnicely · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 11:29:32

If RJ says Michigan then Michigan it is..........

Gear Jammer · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 11:30:42

I'd prefer upper, but I suspect I'll hit which ever one it is.

Missed # X, was 1st one missed from I to IX, due to a artificial knee that the Dr wouldn't release me to ride with, and trying to breath in that firkin altitude. I suffered big time the 1st year we were there. Even stopped in Castle Rock for a few days to try & get used to it.

BUT I ANT TELLING REAL COOL PLACE I WAS THERE TODAY !!!!!!!!

Duckwheat · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 16:44:40

I will bet there are some good deals to be had in Detroit.

Maybe we should start a thread, Is my concealed weapons permit good in MI and the states between here and there?

interesting that you should bring that up Duckwheat,, After MI was tentatively identified as Ground Zero, I got out my CCW reciprocity book and checked out the necessary route from Texas to Michigan. Looks good going thru ARK,TENN,KY,IND into MI.

JimL · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 17:51:05

Wow if it is in Michigan, I hope it is near Traverse City. It have not been there since I was a youngster...but what I remember was pretty nice.

roboto65 · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 17:52:53

Well if it is up in Upper land I have plenty of places to rest my head lots of Kin folk up there LOL

Stitch · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 18:11:53

[/quote]the price of crack and gun's have gone way up .no deals there... and you will be a more than safe & the hype over detroit it just that. i have wandered around in places that the people talk about and think that most of the issues are caused by the people them self's .. ie gang on gang crap .being a native american which i beleave anyone born here in america are. i think we need to rase our own childern and we would all have less issues.. i was born in detoit & love michigan but every state was its bad .. but with that said you will be suprised were it realy is . i know i was . this place is a...edited...

fudgie · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 19:13:31

If it is MI, I will def try and be up there for a day. Might have to crash with someone but will try my darndest to be there, for my 1st IZ.

T.P. · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 20:03:14

I called out Michigan or Wisconsin on September 18th, now I will go with Traverse City or the Bay city area.

T.P.

Slyk Willy · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 20:18:28

MICHIGAN!!! Can't wait to help out on this one!

KW · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 20:54:00

OK. . . . I've never been to an InZane, so if that disquaifies me from speaking on the subject to some people, that's fair

Having said that; The west coast of Michigan - Holland northward to the Bridge - is an INCREDIBLE area. North out of Ludington to up past the Dunes is as beautiful as ANYWHERE in the USA. There's plenty of great roads and scenic rides, not to mention a fantastic "big" city in Grand Rapids (and of course 'Gary' who bleeds Valkyrie oil is based in GR too.) I LOVE the east coast as well (my wife's folks owned proeperty just off the Ausable, near Foote Dam and we used to camp at Old Orchard Park) Anyway, wherever it's at in Michigan (except for Detroit) will be a great choice.

Al in AK · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 21:36:17

Let's Do it !!!!!

Palmer, AK to Grand Rapids, MI 3,740 miles

San Diego, CA to GR, MI 2,290 miles

Key West, FL to GR, MI 1,632 miles

Why is there so much space under here ?

Serk, I am officially convinced of your geekness.

f6gal · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 22:17:11

Ok, another hint...

Al in AK will will be traveling less miles than he thinks.

Al in AK · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 22:20:39

f6gal, I had to laugh at that

Hmmm... In that case, let's dig a little further back in the history of F6Gal's map and see what we can find...

Hmmm... Washington, Oregon or Nebraska... I'm betting it's Washington or Oregon given the hints we've been given...

ptgb · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 22:40:26

So I guess what was overheard at the Holiday Inn lounge in Frisco vis-à-vis the location for "X" was true (and it was not heard from the person here who has been so kind to give us these clues).

With this added "hint"... it now all comes together... miles are miles, aren't they... no matter how many... or how few?

See ya there...

Whoa Serk, that 2nd map is waaay too old. The state was colored in this weekend.
Al in AK will still be traveling well over 3000 miles.

JDW365 · Sun 04, Oct 2009, 23:05:45

How about Traverse City, Mich?

1fastbob · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 06:36:17

Nebraska??? Omaha???? Hmmmm.....

RP#62 · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 07:54:02

Does the part of the state that it will be in start with a U?
-RP

Oh Oh Oh Oh I know I know, where its going to be. Connie told me at the CBR but don't ask me to tell because I wont. I was sworn to secricy, besides I don't want her to come to Indiana and do harm to me or worse.......

I don't remember a thing; I must have been intoxicated. We were still in the "maybe" stage then.

f6gal · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 10:44:01

New hint...

According to MapPoint, by their "quickest" routes, RP#62 and Duckwheat could both earn Iron Butt Saddle Sore 2000 awards.

Engemt could almost earn a Saddle Sore 1000; in fact, if he choses a route that avoids all toll roads, his SS 1000 award could be earned.

RedValk · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 10:58:12

ok...i wasn't supposed to say anything...but i'm going to fess up. I was told....by reliable sources...it will be in Deadhorse, Canada...up on the Artic Ocean/Circle. We're going to film with Iceroad truckers during the event(for the History Channel)...up at Deadhorse...as far north as ya' can get. We're doing it in the month of December. I know, i wasn't supposed to say anything Connie, but i just can't take it anymore.......

or..........................was i intoxicated when i heard this and hallucinating.......

Probie (Scooter57) · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 11:27:12

I have some old college buddies in Michigan and a brother-in-law up in Traverse City so it will depend on what time of the month it is as to whether or not I can make my FIRST Inzane...if it's in the middle of the month I'll start making plans...if it's at the end I'll miss another one

Stanley Steamer · Mon 05, Oct 2009, 11:31:06
