RZR Rally 2011

2nd Annual RZR Rally at Taylor Park, Colorado
65+ Polaris RZRs 108 People from 12 different states

Lining up for the morning ride was very organized chaos! Getting 65 RZRs in 4 lines ready to hit the trails with engines roaring was quite humorous! So many fanatics comparing equipment, accessories, paint colors, and everything else. We lined up behind our "fearless leader" Jim who organized most of the event. The 1st day ride we were joined by 10 other RZRs and 13 RZRs for the 2nd day.

Climbing to well over 10-12,000 feet multiple times a day, we got to take in the beautiful Colorado landscape of the Rocky Mountains. We had fantastic weather every morning (once the fog burned off) until around 3pm when the clouds rolled in, thunder rolled and the rain came down for about an hour or so. But hey, the rain kept down the dust!!















When you pass others on the trail you would hold up a number of fingers indicated the number of people still behind you in your group. Well, what do you do when there are 14 of you? We made quite a scene to our fellow trail riders who didn't know what was going on! :)















Most of the group camped in a huge open space where they could sprawl out in their Toyhaulers. We were one of three who tent-camped. We stayed in a campground about 4 miles from the group near Taylor Reservoir.















There were 5 kids (I think) at the Rally and Jadeyn quickly hooked up with the boys. He and Jacob (in the Mater T-shirt) enjoyed a whole day together on the trail! There was a "minor" breakdown on our ride when our leader broke a main bolt holding the arm bars together, so we had a nice 90 min lunch break in the forest. It was great to sit and chat with everyone and let the boys tear around in the trees!




















I love this picture of one of the trails winding up the mountain! Some in our party weren't from Colorado and really learned the meaning of the ROCKY Mountains! We bounced around and then would fly on the smooth straight-aways!
















Here are Frank and Jim, our leaders! Who would have thought that on top of organizing the whole extravaganza that they would feed the entire group both nights!!! Wow! And finally a group photo of almost everyone who was there. Funny thing is, all 65 RZRs are behind us all in three rows, but there were so many of us, you can't see them!
