DakAL Trip Planning - Sleddog - 12-22-2016 09:58 AM

I mentioned at the Banquet that I would be leading another ride on the DakAL. There seems to be quite a bit of interest.

This is where to discuss DakAL Trip Planning.

The Dakota Adventure Loop aka DakAL is about an 800 mile figure 8, North South loop through the Black Hills. From Nebraska to North Dakota's borders.

More information can be seen at their website.

Here is a short video

We will be staying in Motels

I just updated my post above.


NO camping this trip. we will be staying in motels.(maybe B&B) I will make arrangements & post the name & location. It will be up to the riders to make their own reservations.


RE: DakAL Trip Planning - Lapchik - 12-22-2016 01:03 PM

2018 I will be doing Dakal or Moab, but no big trips for me 2017. I'll be watching spot trackers and waiting for ride reports.

In and I will be trailering out and back


RE: DakAL Trip Planning - Streeter - 12-22-2016 01:20 PM

I'm in.

Thanks,

Paul Streeter


RE: DakAL Trip Planning - dajuice - 12-22-2016 03:03 PM

I think I'm in! I just need to decide if I want to ride the GSA or trade the DRZ for a KTM!


RE: DakAL Trip Planning - HBL - 12-22-2016 07:30 PM

With a sampling of the DakAL last fall, I am really looking forward to this Jack!

Planning to trailer out and back.

RE: DakAL Trip Planning - roostertoo - 12-23-2016 09:05 AM

If this is another "Big Bike Friendly" ride, I'm in on the the GS. I can get by with a little help from my friends. I would ride there and back.

I am very interested. The No camping is a must for me too.

I will be riding a KTM 690.

Will the main ride be leaving from Mitchell?

I would be open to riding down there from the Twin Cities. It looks like one could get there on nearly all dirt roads once you get away from the city. But it might be a boring ride. And it might well take two days to get there.

I also have a pickup and could take two bikes in it.

Thanks for setting this up.


RE: DakAL Trip Planning - ST Rich - 12-23-2016 10:27 AM

Is there even a question there?
Go see Pat @ Crosstown Smile

The DakAL is all in the Black Hills area. Most likely we will base out of Hill City

OK thanks. I was confused. I don't know where I got the idea that we would be riding the TSDAT too.

You can put me in your IN list.
