The date for theEly Nevada RTE is Tueday June 29, 2027. Some of the persons who want to attend the RTE have jobs and if we have the RTE in the middle of the week ( Tuesday ) then they would only need to take off one week of vacation to attend. That way everyone would have the week and the weekend before the RTE and the weekend after the RTE. If we have the RTE on Saturday then they need to take off days for two different weeks.

We will be having a Ride To Eat ( RTE ) in Ely, Nevada at 12 noon on Tuesday, June 29, 2027

Registration Opens December 1, 2026  - Please register for this RTE so we have an idea how many are planning to attend. We need this to be sure we pick a restaurant big enough for all of us. RTE Sign Up Link: Ely Nevada  RTE Registration - Ride Master

The Ely Nevada RTE is shaping up to be one of those rides people will be talking about for a long time.

On Tuesday, June 29, 2027, we are having a Ride To Eat in

If you are thinking about going, registration is open on Ride Master. Signing up helps with planning and gives us a better idea of how many riders will be there.

Top Hotels In Ely Nevada

The Yellowknife RTE decals have arrived. There are a nice hologram 5 X 3 inch decal that should last a longtime.

These will be provided to all of the riders who show up at the Yellowknife RTE.

Location Tracking

I recommend that you have some type of tracking device that will work with Spotwalla. A Spot, inReach, Zoleo or one of the cell phone tracking apps which are free. Yellowknife is way up in Canada and the route to get there passes through very remote areas.

SpotWalla supports multiple devices, both satellite- and cellular-based devices.

Satellite Based Trackers Include:

• Garmin Satellite Trackers - All InReach devices and other satellite-based devices from Garmin

• SPOT Trackers - All SPOT tracking devices.

• ZOLEO Satellite Communicator

Cellular-Based Phones Apps Support Include:

• SWTracker (iOS) ( Apple iPhone )

I will create a Spotwalla location page for the RTE that everyone can join if you have a Spotwalla account. If you do not have a Spotwalla account I would think about getting one and setup some type of tracking. I will email all of the registered riders a link to join the Yellowknife RTE Spotwalla location page after the first of the year.

Medical Evacuation Insurance: I recommend having some type of medical evacuation / travel protection like MedJet or Global Rescue. They are not required but do offer some piece of mind for you and your family. You can get only one month coverage for either of them.

Riding Gear

You will need good riding gear as it could rain and be very cold. There could even be snow in June along the route so plan accordingly. You should bring some type of rain gear that will help keep you dry. Also having some heated gear especially a heated jacket and gloves would be a good idea. Having waterproof boots that may also be nice just in case.

Motorcycle Preparedness

Try and be sure you motorcycle is ready to ride and you are carrying the tools and items that may be needed on a long ride. One of the items that I think is critical and I carry one is a siphon hose, I have not needed one for myself but having an AUX has allowed me to assist many other riders who have run out of gas.I have a inexpensive one from Amazon.

I am a little overkill when it comes to carring tools and other items that I may need on a long adventure ride.

There are many good hotels in Yellowknife and I have not yet booked a room.

The road to Yellowknife is paved all the way. There may be some construction but the road is in good condition and you can attend this RTE on any motorcycle.
