Looking forward to this one, as I've never been to CO before on a bike or Slingshot. We'll see you there! @slolane Your wife has an awesome looking bike, I look forward to meeting you both.
Thank you, yes the bike is her pride and joy but make no mistake she will do very long days on that thing lol She has an iron butt award for doing 1150 miles in 22 hours. Not sure on what day we will be at the event as we are going into southern Utah for a couple days first. We have been to Colorado many times thru the years on many different motorcycles we just love riding in the mountains.

I'm totally with you. My wife is 28. I bought her a beautiful Vespa 70th anniversary. She doesn't even ride that! She would, however, do the journey from the passenger seat of the sling. Just not enough storage space.
-
Bah....lots of ways around storage space. I bought the Sling knowing there is no storage, and the very next day I also bought the trailer I pull with the Sling. Lots of room now. Holds 4 duffle bags, tools for the road, and a built in cooler for those Ice Cold (legal) bevvies on the road.
As for distance, we went to Mount Kisko, NY last year. that's 1800 miles one way and loved every single mile. Watching reactions to the Sling is reason enough on it's own!
Can't wait to pack up for this trip too
-
@slolane... Your wife... WINNER!!!
@Cameron Roberts... Corbin bags, some roll hoop bags... Still not enough storage?

I've recently lost the space behind the seats and the roll hoops are occupied. I probably should have gotten a trailer for the sling. Not sure why I didn't think of that...

Pretty sure @Turbosling can still "hook you up" in time
Their 2.0 hitch is a solid dream for towing. Quick and easy attachment, and never even know the trailer is behind you.

And now I am registered for the Smokies
Yay, my first official Sling event, lol. Can't wait.

I would love to just sling it, but I'm afraid that's not gonna happen. Stupid trailers.
I am thinking about it, will have to wait and see and it WILL BE A SlingShot Ride if it happens. Wife has already said no, she will not be going. So maybe someone else from the east coast area and we could ride out and back together with the SlingShot's. OK, just to be nice even if you are going to trailer your SS. I will make exceptions just to go along with someone else. Is anyone planning on the trip? If so I will work extra hard to try and do this.
