In my shop. Doing stuff.
This could be why lodging is so difficult to find.

Look at the event listed for the same weekend as BB.

Plus the atv/utv and the sky diving event.

Fri-Sat 27-28 3rd Annual Moab Pride Festival - The Moab Pride Festival was created to raise awareness, understanding and acceptance of LGBTQ people. The festival's aim is to benefit the LGBTQ community by introducing educational and outreach programs throughout southern Utah. This two day event includes the Friday Night Orange Party, Saturday Visibility March, Pride Festival & After Party. Join us! For more info go to moabpride.org, like us on Facebook, or call 602-373-1971.
 
Are we adding a parade run through town? You could print up a bunch of rainbow stickers.

Just kidding. Don't do it.
 
Yeah, I'd rather just be somewhere far away on the trail. Glad I already have the park reserved.

I posted up that KTM was looking for someone to split lodging with. I knew his phone number would come in handy.

Say what? Details? Or was that a joke :(

I'm on the fence right now, but I have access to a tow truck, trailer, and tent/lodging funds.
 
So this is going to make the I'm so gay I can't even drive straight stickers that much funnier


Hehehehehehehe.

Might have to spend some time hanging out downtown and looking for some lipstick lesbians to eye Fu@&.. Not into full on bull dykes but I love me some good lipstick lesbos.

your gonna get beat up by a couple of dykes. :D:D
 
I'm not cool with this news!!!!!

I have had a room booked at the arches for months!!!

May just pass on this year!

Can't say I'm comfortable knowing the town is going to be full of " pride" supporters!

Gay seems to be in everything these days but it does not make it less disturbing....

This news just ruined my day.........
 
You have to go to back us up. We need as much hetero machoism as possible.

I wasn't too happy either. But Im not going to allow them to ruin or change my life.
 
Christ guys their just normal folk.

Who they poke at night shouldn't effect things one way or the other.

I'm looking at it as some new entertainment for this years event.

Can't believe I'm the one saying that either.

Edit

Kelly if you do drop your room let me know and I'll take it. Will need to coordinate that.
 
I'd be surprised if we can even tell it's going on. Especially considering we're on the trail 8am til 5pm typically. There will be way more tourists there than what's attending any of those or our events.

It would be more concerning if it were one of the big biking events. There's a ton of people for those.
 
I'd be surprised the BLM would put us on the same weekend if that's the case. They've always told me they don't double up on weekends. That's how we ended up with the weekend we are on.

I'm tempted to ask the BLM about it but I hate to be a rat. And they keep an eye on events so I would think if it's on that Moab calendar the BLM & SITLA would be on them.
 
They claim to have Moab police escort through town to the trails. If so, I would call it a big deal for the city.
 
You know Moab has an estimated 1.5 million visitors a year. Divide that by 365 days and that's 4000/day. And that doesn't account for the fact that they probably don't get the high volume during the height of summer and winter. Hell Arches Nat'l Park alone gets 800, 000/yr and that's a good accurate count.

In other words Moab is always going to be busy when we're there. That's why I have to reserve the park at least 6 months in advance.
 
You may be a voice of reason Sir...

I may stick with the original plan.
You guys do make a good point!

Last thing I want to do is miss an opportunity to wheel with more CK5'ers.

After the time we had with the group at Silver lake Dunes run, I could make a habit of wheeling with members!

The calendar does look very busy though!!!
-atv group 300???
-skydiving group 10th anniversary...
-we all know now about the "rear entry diddlers" gathering!
- there are a few others but they don't seem significant.

Last year when we were in Moab there was some movie being shot and the town was packed.
Waited in long lines for a restaurant at any time of the day.

If we do cancel ---Miniwally, you have dibs on our room.
 
You better come down! Sucks being the token Canadian all the time :P You at least have the right accent for it!
