Like Rob says -- there will be tons of Large and Larger bikes out there. Some of the Jeep roads like River Road in the BBNP are challenging on a Honda Africa Twin, Loaded BMW etc. but they will tackle it for sure.
 
I'm considering going, but I don't know yet if work schedule will allow. In the meantime, what's the address for the meetup? I would like to look it up and see how long it would take me to get there by car or by bike.

Just use Terlingua, TX. It’s not a big town.
 
Been 5 times. From the Austin area it's 500 miles each way. Unable to join this one. I watched that BDR-X video today. Old Ore Rd will remain my favorite (in the park).
