My wife is trying to convince me to buy a Goldwing. Maybe, if she sees your Roadliner, she'll broaden her horizons.

Be Well & bring the Mrs.

Deacon

If we do come, she can sit on the back and see. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a thrown for the queen like the wing.

Hey, wild deuce. I live near Albemarle and Morrow Mountain, so I could probably come up with a route. Do you have a time frame as to how long you would like a ride to last? What type roads etc. I'm sure I can come up with something. Just looking for feed-back. I'm not a well seasoned rider, and have never rode in a large group ride, so it would be best for everyone,if someone else could take the lead. If you want me to work up a route, let me know.

wild_deuce03 · 09-01-2008

It doesn't matter to me who sets up a route. I wasn't planning on this being some organized event. But I just thought that if we had something planned out that it would go over a little smoother. It doesn't matter to me if we just start riding and have a final destination planned to get something to eat. That was kind of the whole concept anyway. Everyone meets up, shoots the breeze with intro's. Goes out on a ride and then get some grub. Whatever the masses want. I'm easy. Just anxious to meet some of the folk around here.

Time2Ride · 09-01-2008

Thanks for setting this up Ryan; I just saw this thread. I have to pass on this weekend due to a football game but would like to meet you guys sometime. I often meet some of the Delphi Forum Vulcan guys in Asheboro and will let them know of your lunch plans.

trjam · 09-01-2008

I think the key, as Dave stated earlier in this thread was a meet at Morrow Mountain. What happens then well is really open. Eat, Ride ? More are coming, some with wives like me and I think it would be cool to meet. Some may decide to go eat, some ride. But ya first got to get the fols there, or everything else doesnt matter.

A time and a place

gpzrocker · 09-01-2008

One guy tells me that he will be down in Cruso at a KLR rally, and he says he should be able to make it.

trjam · 09-01-2008

Dave has gone from about 8 to who knows how many now. I think it is a safe bet to say, this is a meet and greet and Morrow Mountain. lol

At least I will be able to get some feedback on my Dooleys that are ordered.

Musgofasa · 09-02-2008

Well I will definitely be at Morrow Mt. I should have at least one friend with me and possibly two. (Maybe more if things keep going this way lol) I don't know how much time (or energy) I will have to do any group riding once we get up there, but I am always up for some food! lol

I can't wait! We had so much fun this weekend. The wife stayed on the bike with me for almost 6 hours. It wasn't the same distance as Morrow Mt will be, but it was a good day in the saddle. She won't be going to this one, but you can count on the next.

Only a few more weeks now!

Take care,
Robert

wild_deuce03 · 09-03-2008

Bump.

wild_deuce03 · 09-05-2008

Bump. Anyone new planning on coming?

Badrocks · 09-05-2008

Not unless you count the buddy I'm bringing along with me.

meangreen · 09-05-2008

Wife says yes. We will be there. We will probably meet up with the triangle group meeting at Triangle Cycles.

ecave · 09-05-2008

Well guys I am not going to be able to make it. My schedule won't allow. Maybe next time. Have a great time and ride safe.

I will keep you posted. You never know, there are several people I have asked that aren't sure yet due to scheduling, etc. We may have as many as 5 or 6.

You can add me to the list. As of right now, I am planning on it since the training that I was supposed to be taking got moved up a week.

Can anybody recommend a biker friendly motel or campground around there? It will be around a 500 mile round trip for me (not including any riding once I am there) and I am not sure that I want to tackle that in one day.

You're added! There are a number of hotels in Albemarle. You shouldn't have a problem with any of them.

Musgofasa · 09-08-2008

If the wife decides to come, we will be looking for a motel too.

It's about 145 miles and google says 2 hrs 45 minutes one way. I will do some research tonight and find out what sort of deals my wife can get on rooms in Albemarle. She works for a hotel management company and can get discounts almost anywhere.

How many would be looking for a room? Maybe we can get a group discount of some kind.

Take care,
Robert
