Yes
I don't have it though. Typically it is announced at the Rally but maybe if everyone asks nice someone will share it?

Re: Not yet
Are you kidding!
It's the big secret. The official reason is that it helps their bargaining position with various contracts if the vendor does not know the MOA is locked into a location.
But, in the beautiful world of the internet it will leak out before July. It did the last two years. I'm just waiting to see who leaks it first this year.
The MOA execs have admitted that the official rally announcement might soon be a thing of the past.

Rally 05
Only a few things from the old days and that is telling everyone on sat. nite at the awards where the site of the next rally will be. Also, don't open the gates until the day the rally starts, then again this is not the old days.

Re: Santa Fe
I live in Santa Fe and you really do not want to hold a rally here of the size that we are talking about.
There is no place big enough to hold all the campers or other facilities required by the BMW MOA.
Sure it is a pretty place, with good riding, lots of cultural attractions, and 300 art galleries... but it is also damn expensive!

I'm really not sure if it's even possible to adequately describe the level of HOT and MISERABLE that is Vegas in the Summer. Like getting a good whack to the 'nads, it's a special sort of misery that you just have to experience to truly appreciate.
I vote for Mtns... CO, WY, Northern N.M., Montana... Middle of the country and cool if you get up into enough elevation.
Cheers
RW (went to Vegas ONCE in the summer)

Reno / Tahoe area would be AMAZING but it's too close to Spokane to be a possibility this go round. I'm gonna lay my bet on Colorado. Not because I just moved here, but because it is central or a bit west, and the riding and weather would be ideal... WHEN is the official word given?

I hope it's Colorado! On the top of the Rockies. Plenty of space, good riding, and lakes, and great weather, and good riding, and stuff. Gambrinus, My cousin lives near Denver. I bought my /7 near there. Have you ever been to those cool Indian hotsprings? Bee-u-tee-ful! Hangin' out,(wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean?), in those great natural hotsprings soaking up some sun and checkin out those snowtopped mountains. You gotta love it.
Thanks,
Michael

Oh, Canada!

A couple of years ago, the BMW RA held their annual rally in Red River New Mexico. A couple of friends and I rode out there, stopping in Vegas for 2 days. It got to 112 degrees! On the day we left, we left at 445 am, and the pavement was still warm! You don't want to go to Vegas in the summer. Repeat after me - stay away from Las Vegas in the summer.
Make the rally in Colorado.
