Idaho Coalition for Motorcycle Safety 39th Annual Motorcycle Awareness Ride
2024-05-04 10:00 - 13:00 (America/Boise) | Sandy Point Beach, 9725 ID-21, Boise, ID, 83716, United States
This is NOT an IAMC event, but our friends over at the Idaho Coalition for Motorcycle Safety host a yearly ride to raise awareness for motorcycle safety. It is an police escorted ride from Sandy Point Park over at Lucky Peak to the Idaho State Capital. This is purely a pavement ride in a large group, at a leisurely pace. Expect to see every type of street legal bike imaginable, this is not limited to just street bikes. cruisers, classics, or adventure bikes. We are all equally vulnerable when riding on the road. In addition to helping raise safety awareness, just the experience of riding in such a large group is worth participating in this event.
The ride will be followed by a BBQ at Kristen Armstrong Park and hosted by the Christian Motorcycle Association. There is no cost to attend this event, although I’m sure donations will be accepted.

Sam’s Prairie Poker Run
2024-04-27 10:00 - 16:00 (America/Boise) | Maverick at 7353 W Victory Rd, Boise, ID 83709, 7353 W Victory Rd, Boise, ID 83709, Boise, ID, 83709, United States
Meet at the Maverick at 7353 W Victory Rd, Boise, ID 83709. (Victory and Cole)
This is our annual Spring kick-off ride, named after Idaho Sam who used to coordinate it, out to Prairie for lunch at the Y-Stop General Store. There are no playing cards involved. Poker refers to the pace. It should be relatively easy, Level 2 dirt roads, and a relaxed pace with multiple butt-breaks. A great opportunity for newbies to get their feet wet and meet some people. And a good time for veterans to get warmed up, see old friends, and meet new ones.
If you’re doing the Challenge this year we’ll hit 3 sites on the ride.
20 – Canyon Creek Station Marker
21 – The Y Stop
34 – South Fork Picture Op
We’ll leave the gas station at 10:00AM to hopefully make it to the Y-Stop between 12:00-1:00. We won’t be doing any interstate but a short stretch of Highway 20 will be higher speeds.
The Route is down Pleasant Valley Rd. to Kuna Mora Rd, Mayfield Rd., Immigrant Rd., Highway 20, Anderson Dam Rd. across the dam to Prairie Rd. which takes us to Prairie. After lunch we take Blacks Creek Rd. back to Boise. You should be home in plenty of time for dinner.
Now all of this is based on good weather and no mechanical failures. We have had flat tires on these rides, but that’s always a possibility anyway. At least you’ll have plenty of friends around to help, or watch. But as with any ride into the wilds, be prepared.
Please be there well before 10:00 so we can actually leave then. And we like to do a short briefing before we go so everyone is on the same page as far as expectations.
About 95 miles there and 50-60 home. Gas is usually available at the Y-Stop.

Owyhee Uplands Back Country Discovery Route
2024-04-24 09:00 - 18:00 (America/Boise) | Homedale Chevron, 101 E Idaho Ave #24, Homedale, ID, 83628, United States
Dan Huff is organizing a ride this Wed the 24th. We are meeting at 9AM at the Chevron in Homedale.
From the Forum:
We’ll skip the steep rocky road with water crossings down to Historic Birch Creek. With this change, this ride is friendly for those on medium to heavy Adventure bikes.
We will likely hit Succor Creek Mine Shaft, Leslie Gulch Boat Ramp, Birch Creek Ranch, Coffee Pot Crater, and Pelota Fronton, but if any section gets too crazy for adventure bikes we will turn back.
Please be on time and let Dan know if you are coming. This is an ESTIMATE of our route, but there may be deviations.

2024-04-20 08:00 - 15:00 (America/Boise) | Ford Idaho Center, 16200 Idaho Center Blvd, Nampa, ID, 83687, United States
This is not an IAMC event, but a great chance to represent our club and bring awareness to a very important topic.

Ride to site 47-48 Weather permitting Level 4 ride
2024-04-12 10:00 - 14:00 (America/Boise)
I’m looking at going and hitting challenge points 47 and 48. I will be trailering my DRZ to the gravel pit south of Bruneau Idaho. I hope to be there around 10 AM. Then riding from there. I plan to hit winter camp and then south to Indian Hot Springs. The last time I did this around this time of year it was muddy and slick, with lots of baby heads in the trial, as it’s mostly two tracks from the winter camp area. The drop into Indian Hot Springs is ruff with lots of loose rocks and steep grades. The route back will most likely be the big dirt road back north. The picture is my family hauler 2 years ago at Indian Hot Springs. This will be rated at a level 4 from the challenge site. The last part going down into the canyon is the worst part.

Ride Down South to Fairer Weather
2024-04-09 17:00 - 20:00 (America/Boise) | Karcher Extra Mile, 11950 W Karcher Rd, Nampa, ID, 83651, United States
New proposed ride is head down and hit up 01 – Jump Creek Falls then 03 – Reynolds Creek Cemetery . Time permitting we can hit 38 – Celebration Park on the way back.
This is a level 2 ride. I hear reports on minor ruts on the way up. This should be adventure bike compatible for most riders.
Meeting point will be 5:00 at the Chevron. Please be on time. If you have a schedule conflict but really want to go please reach out and we can re-asses. The time will be updated here if things change. It’s best to be gassed up and ready by the time stated we are leaving.
