Kim just found out that Sept 30th-Oct 2nd has to be the dates she can get off. So we are truly hoping that is the date for the bash.
We won't be heading up there until late Friday night and might get in at 4am. I have to teach an evening class on Friday so it really all depends on how tired, or stoked I am (do they say that anymore?). We will plan on staying from Saturday through the following Wednesday. We fighre here's no sense in driving for that time and not staying longer.
Not sure where to say.
-The Phillips was nice and cheap, kind of strange location though.
-CROT is where the action is and the food is better, but the rooms SUCK.
-Tapco is nice but the rooms are expensive for the area, but it has BEER.
-Two wheel inn (
www.twowheelinn.com) is a new place advertised that has an attached garage for motorcycles. The rates are the same as the Phillips and it's in Robbinsville also.
I really depends on where the group stays, but I vote on the Two wheel inn. It's new. The rooms look PERFECT, especially compared to all of the above. Plus a GARAGE, nice and cosy for all the busas. Not that Robbinsville has that much crime, I just wasn't too comfortable with the display of the "steal me busa fest" at the Phillips. Not that CROT is much better either. Just my .02
All this is tenative on my mother's condition. It's in the Lord's hands at this point, but we are hoping for the best.
I suppose it also depends on the weather. Last year's bash was canceled due to rain. So far this year has started off with a bang, tropically speaking. I just hope the mountians aren't pounded again. I really don't mind riding in rain usually. But when you add up curves, rain, leaves, and idiots on two wheels, you usually don't have a good outcome. Plus there is not much to do for rainy day activities.
I guess Kevin and creekboy would be our best sources of info, lord knows the weather channel is worthless.
Can't wait till the trip. Looking forward to seeing everyone.
Chris
