2010 Dragons Tail FZ6RC Meet.

i wish this were a week later. I am going to Barber Motorsports Park for a track weekend Aug 14-15 and would loved to have tied this all into one big fun trip. I actually planned a deals Gap trip and put down the 300 deposit on the ridge for a week in June when I had not seen an update on this one. If you can move it a week later I'll transfer my deposit to that date if that can work for folks, then I would cancel my June dates and move to this week.

That poor hummingbird.....The trip was a blast year!!!!! I would be in if the timing were a little better.

What week in June do you have reserved? We tried getting a earlier week, but all were booked.

I have the Ridge from May 31st to June 7th right now. Not sure how many of my group here will be able to make it however.

 

[shaggystyle]

So what's the plan? I'm ok with any of the proposed dates. I'd prefer sooner than later, but it's whatever works best for everyone.

 

[ant_mb]

Is there really no interest in a 2010 meet? We have 2 confirmed members(shaggy and myself), and that is it. Mark and I can't do it by ourselves. Where is everyone from last year? Did you not have fun? Come on guys we're only talking $150 for a week long party with some of the best roads in the US.

 

[dean owens]

i don't think i can go a whole week. but i'd like to go some. but with my schedule i have to have a date first before any commitment comes from me. reading this thread i see a few dates. some work, some don't. is there a date set?

 

[ant_mb]

We have to act fast guys. The place is filling up really fast! August 4-11 is available at the Treetops. Who knows for how long though. Chime in if your wanting to go. The dates will be August 4-11 a Wed to a Wed.

 

[shaggystyle]

What if I promise to bring 2 full cases of homebrew? I'll even take requests if anyone has something special in mind.

I would try bribing with provocative pictures of myself but that would probably just scare more people away.

 

[dean owens]

i'll be at a conference from the 6-14. doesn't look like i'll be able to make those dates.

guess there's next year.

I can probably make that work and attend from maybe friday to wednesday and then see if they'll let me stay an extra day before I head to birmingham for my track weekend. Com one guys. all we need are 2-3 more. Anthony and Mark if we get a couple more I'll call the folks there and move my deposit to hold that week if it will work?

Either that or we could move to your week. Let me take a look at my vacation schedule and see if I can get that week off? What are your thoughts Mark?

 

[shaggystyle]

The dates don't really matter to me. I've got ridiculous amounts of vacation time, so I could easily do either. If you put a gun to my head I'd probably pick the earlier dates just because august might get kind of hot....but that wouldn't really stop me either.

Basically I'm saying figure out what works best with your schedule and I'll be there regardless.

 

[kellybt1052]

Bump
With only a few showing interest I'm inclined to keep my dates (5/31-6/7) and make space for Shaggy and Ant, I am guessing I will have at least a few drop from my TX group. After all I need Mark along to play beer sherpa, the boy can twist and lean through the dragon with a least a 12 pack on back...impressive to say the least!! Still willing to move my deposit though if we get more to attend!

 

[dean owens]

i already said i can't go those other dates. and i don't know about the place you have... but if you had those dates i might be able to make it a day or two.

 

[shaggystyle]

Yeah man if you have room I would love to tag along....and if we somehow manage to drill up interest in an actual forum ride, well I could always go for round 2.

As long as it's not an inconvenience, and Ant agrees.

So what's the reason for lack of interest this year? It's such a drastic change. I'm guessing it has to do with the cancellation of the model, not enough new blood.

 

[ant_mb]

If you can make room then I'm in too. If we can get the second dates then we'll do two trips I guess.

The lack of interest is really surprising though. Maybe everyone didn't have as good a time as I did.

If you need me to send a deposit let me know. I have mine and Marks funds ready to send.

 

[AJ Babaganoosh]

I have had a blast the past two years and plan on being there whenever y'all go. As before though, I don't know if my wife and son will want to (or be able) to go. With her job she can't schedule more than a month ahead, so I just can't commit to the lodging. If they don't come and there are rooms open, I may jump in at the last minute. I just can't promise anything.

 

[kellybt1052]

Mark and Anthony, your in, plan to attend on those dates if you want I will shoot more information in the next month or so. I am still trying to get my herd here together but I am going to count you guys in, I need to start the formal planning stuff like food here soon.

Just in case anyone forgot about the roads, we had 12" of snow here last week in one day so I needed to be refreshed of mind!!
