(vman1300 @ Sep. 25 2006,13:46) As usual, with all the good times and laughs over the last weekend, its time to plan for the Spring Bash.

A couple of regulars, well most of the regulars kinda of tossed the last weekend of April on the table.

The weekend dates would be Friday the 27th-Sunday the 29th. I checked my calander and dont see any issues.

For the newbie Bashers, we will be staying at the Phillips Motel in Robbinsville. Contact info can be found here.

It is never to early to make reservations.

Area info here.





I would like to do a few things different for the give away items. Of course we would have the usual items from our store and who ever else will be gracious enough to help out.

Last Spring we kicked around a "registration fee" so to speak. If we go that route we could set a fee and it could cover several things.

a tee shirt
pic CD- weather permitting of course

For the something different, maybe have a grand prize to give away bought with part of the registration fee.

At the 2006 R1-Forum rally, a $2000.00 shopping spree was given away. Keep in mind, the R1 rally had nearly 200 attendes. The fee was $60.00 and it covered food as well, but no shirt.

We could do the same with Street and Track. A shopping spree or a big prize.

I am just throwing ideas on the table..........

I really would like some feedback on what you folks would like.

Do we keep it as years past or try to add a "grand prize" to be given away.

Shirts? Yes or no

I am the worst post ho around and can change the the direction on any thread. Lets try to keep this thread on-topic and keep the ho'ing to a minimum.

Lets get a few ideas on what we as a group want to do...........

Can someone please give me a run down on the itinerary for the Busa bash?

Where do we meet?
What day do we meet?
What time do we meet?
Is the bash only on Saturday?

Thanks all!!!!

I am staying at the Phillips.

There is actually no set itinerary. With a group this size, it is nearly impossible to organize a group ride.


The only things planned are:

Friday night- meet and great around the fire pit at the Phillips. Kevin will be bringing brat burgers, a Bash tradition. I will also have a few givaways from our shop and what ever else the other board sponsors donate.

Normally we get together on Friday around 6:30 or so.

I will reach out again to the NCHP and have a Tropper drop by for a little saftey talk and offer some food as a peash offering for the *ahem* possible offenders.

Friday night you will need to pay for the picture DVD if you are interested. Last spring we did them for $5. That covered paying the photographer, cost of the DVD's and shipping.

Saturday morning- meet at the CROT at 9 if you wanna eat. We will try to leave the CROT at 10am for a ride down Hwy 28 to about an hour of shots in a sweeping curve near the dam.

Then a photo shoot at the Dam.

The rest of the time, explore the great roads in the area.

I spend most all my time on the Gap and if you are looking for a group to ride with LMK and I will see what I can do for you.

Saturday night, we normally gather around the fire for some bench racing and lie telling.....and more brats!

Came your way in the fall, but about 250 miles further south. Had a nice flat area on rear tire. Tom's got some comp treads and is saving them for Vman.

Okay, I'm back to this thread. I didn't make reservations yet... (stupid procrastination) and I called the Phillips... NO ROOMS

So, I'm trying the San Ran and the Microtel. Hopefully I can find something for Paul and I...
