The Four Corners Rally in the Rockies Motorcycle Rally, the annual
Labor Day Weekend event drawing hundreds of thousands of bikers to the Four
Corners Region the past thirteen years, has announced the 2006 event will be held at
Echo Basin Ranch - West of Durango, Colorado. Each year the Rally has grown in
size and the facility in Ignacio will no longer hold the record crowds that attend
and the campers that want to stay on the grounds where the events are held.

Echo Basin Ranch is the same distance from Durango as Ignacio, but in
the opposite direction. Echo Basin boasts better facilities, and more room
with shaded camping on privately owned land, which will make for a better
rally. Echo Basin sits to the North of Highway 160 between Durango and Cortez.

"I think it’s going to be awesome," said Echo Basin owner Dan Bjorkman.
"We have the perfect venue for this. We have a huge amphitheater that
accommodates over 10,000 people on pastured ground, so even when there’s bad weather everyone’s not stomping around in the mud. We also have a lot of excellent
camping. People can camp in the trees at the base of 13,000-foot peaks, over looking
Mesa Verde National Park. We think it’s a great location, and we’re welcoming
everybody who comes here for the rally."

"Echo Basin is a fantastic venue," Bradshaw said. "It will provide us
with a far superior location and facilities, and allow us to continue all the
activities that are a part of our rally. It is the same distance from Durango as
Ignacio, so I don’t expect Durango to be affected by the move. Plus there is
almost five times more dry camping area for RV’s and for motorcycle tent campers."

"This will still be a region wide event; it’ll just be based out of a better
facility with more cooperative management. These people want the rally,
and I’m excited about making the move."

Echo Basin may be considered more central to the region, allowing
riders to experience all the variety the Four Corners Region has to offer a
little more easily. Especially important is that Echo Basin is right on the world
famous Loop, the 220 mile loop that goes from Durango to Telluride, then to
Ouray, Silverton and back to Durango, going over numerous mountain passes.
This Loop is considered by thousands of bikers as one of the best rides in the US.

"We’ll be right in the middle of everything," Bradshaw said. "It’s
going to be a great rally." For more information and pictures of Echo Basin go to
