It's a GiantStampede!!!

Bear Lodge

I am registered for both the Rally in Billings and the Stampede in Wyoming. I have called the Lodge on several occasions and requested a camping space; So far they have only told me they would call with the info - they have yet to respond. I have no idea weather a site has been reserved for me or if I need to make other arrangements.

As mentioned earlier I have called several times, often no one answers the phone.

No issues with Billings, reservations have been confirmed.

Thank You.

I had the same difficulty. Use this phone number: 307-752-4444. That number is answered more often than the others.

Now that its over!

The few days spent at the bear lodge prior to the rally was a great time, great riding right out the front door of bear lodge. After a day ride and coming back to camp with food, beer and prize was awesome, to top it of with a fire under the stars.

On one of the day rides the camera was flying to capture the ride of giants in the bighorns. Thanks to Robert Barbutti for bring his DJI Inspire drone all the way from northern Cali on the back of his two week old to him R1200GS. Without his flying and camera skills this would have never been possible. Mechanical failure killed the drone for the rest of week so no MOA rally footage was taken. At the MOA Rally Robert and I sat down and put together this film in Final Cut Pro on my mac. It took about 12 hours to edit this 4 min video. The film music is by The Last Jacksons Band song: Ancient Age. Thanks to them for allowing us to use there song as the soundtrack to this film. Hope you enjoy watch in 1080pHD!

Wonderful. Thanks for posting.

I think I'd be a little nervous if one of those was flying over my shoulder.

And the news report is good PR for MOA in that viewers can put some faces to BMW riders.
