hopz Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Thanks to Larry for being helpful... but... I really wish I could have had some input on the choice for this place. Last summer we returned from an art show and needed a place in Salida. We booked the Gateway because of the UN Rally experience. We have never been treated so rudely, bait and switch on the price, and given such a filthy, unprepared room and then the angry and abusive treatment upon us when I complained. Good luck.

Whip Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 That is what you get for not staying at my house. I have no idea why you had issues.... but I have stayed there several times including the 2012 UN and have never had a problem. BTW...anyone can stay anywhere they wish in Salida for the event, UBER will still pick you up. Link to comment

At least 2 riders will be staying there. Link to comment
EffBee Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Mrs Whip is already planning the menu. We are looking forward to it. L and L I've had Louise's home-cooked vittles. Y'all best start dieting now because you won't be able to say No. Link to comment

Bob, The Gateway's owners let me know they were very keen on the type of ratings they'd get after the '12 Un and asked that our attendees take the time to post online critiques. Some of the issues you mention were on various rating sites when I did my due diligence in late '11. I found the owners to be reasonable folks who asked that customers address their complaints instead of posting a negative experience afterwards thus allowing them to make things right ASAP.

I also plan on camping at the Ouray KOA. I want to do several day rides in SW CO before heading to Casa de Whip. Most likely will be there three or four nights before heading to Salida on Friday. Hope to see you there. Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 can't beat the san juans. Link to comment
Bud Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 can't beat the san juans. +1 I've ridden a motorcycle, driven a jeep and a 4 wheeler all around the Ouray area and will go back as often as I can. Never tire of the mountains, the changing views, the inviting small towns, the off road challanges and the friendly people. Link to comment
KTM Doug Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Bub and John, I'm looking into leaving CA earlier than planned to maybe meet you guy's in Ouray. Seems I was just there. I usually staff downtown at the 4J+1 park in town as it is walking distance to restaurants and tee shops. But the KOA is ok. Hope to see you there. Maybe on a new to me GS1200, 2012 version.

Bud Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Doug, That's cool. See you there. Bud Link to comment
Bud Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 So at least 3 of us will be in Ouray the week before the Pre-ride. Anyone else want to join us for some good riding in SW Colorado? Link to comment
