My riding calender is getting pretty full but this has been penciled in. Have they settled on a date yet?

Yes they have. Really awesome rules also
I am thinking of loading bikes and stuff in my dually and towing my race car trailer with bikes. I can easily fit 5comfortably and plenty of bikes in the trailer. Plus I will go anyway and put back my 100gal tank on the bed so we really don't have to stop much at all.
Then get the gear sent to the camp ground and we ride lighter. My son and I will bring the 650l which are mechanically great and reliable.
Office, maybe talk buttercup into going?????

Quote from a rider of last years rally.
Don't expect to finish.
Don't expect to end your day with dry boots or a clean bike.
Don't expect the weather to be nice.
Do expect an amazing ride through parts unknown.
If you plan your packing list well and ride smart, you'll be smiling every night

Man, I wish. What's everyone gonna ride? If I were able to go, the big KLR seems a bit much for that and the KTM seems a bit small...

Jeeze, I don't want to be a wuss but a 600km day is 375 miles 
Don't get me wrong I've done back to back 1000 mile days on the road but a new to me 650l with dirt, mud, hillclimbs, watercrossings not to mention navigating roads that may not be on a map & I'm scared OK. I duno 
I'l start with March Moto Madness & you can try to convince me
