Lets do it again! People can either ride down Thursday or Friday depending on work & schedules. Assume departure will be at checkout on Sunday (assume 10-11 AM) unless your schedule says otherwise. Rough assumptions: Lodging: Expect somewhere around $120 per person, per night (price and # of beds may vary slightly) Food: Group breakfast & dinner Friday & Saturday = $15 per person, per meal = $60. All lunch/snacks on your own & as needed while riding. Miles Ridden: 300 +/- there, 150 +/- per day, 300 +/- return = 900 +/- total miles. 30 gallons of gas @ $3.50/gal = $105 in gas More to figure out as we narrow dates & attendees. This is just a starting point.

What's up @Dr.SplashyPants!! Love the 650 - my last bike was a CBR 650. The 650's are so good now. Saw you have gold valve emulators & Ohlin's. Did you do the suspension work? Glad to have you here!

100% true. More fun and more satisfying! That's a beautiful RE. Love the style & paint. Great looking ride.

Nice. I find myself weighing the service department more and more when buying a new / warrantied bike. Selling a bike is easy. Servicing is not. Good stuff on the 10%. I picked up about $4,700 worth of addons with my current bike (paid MSRP)... The dealer didn't offer any discounts on them.

No experience with this shop, so good to hear. Fair out the door pricing? Would definitely like to hear about their service department if/when you use them.

Welcome @Scooter MGee You should definitely share some pictures! What parts did you pick up?

I've reached out to all known interested for confirmation on attendance & commitment to repay. If more are interested - get in touch! Would love to have more people!

Based on votes & location, will look at Option 1 for now. Option 2 had one more vote, but is nearly twice the distance from the tail. Not that we'll be at the tail every day, but as a "central point" I figure it's better to be closer to that. I'll start messaging people to confirm willingness to book & pay.

Let's plan on arriving Thursday, August 8 and departing Sunday, August 11th. @smithburger @ngphill @Grizzly @Thrombosed @JeremyM @Remi Anne @Nshaw2834 @Atrain Some lodging options - all in or near Robbinsville. If one of these looks good, let's agree on it & I'll book it & discuss repayment. If anyone finds better options somewhere - share them here. Option 1 (click/tap) $1,623 total / 7 people (or more) = $232 per person total lodging 7 beds Option 2 (click/tap) $1,029 total / 7 people (or more) = $147 per person total lodging 7 beds (including a bunk bed) Option 3 (click/tap) $979 total / 7 people (or more) = $140 per person total lodging 7 beds (including bunk beds) Option 4 (click/tap) $956 total / 7 people (or more) = $137 per person total lodging 7 beds

People can either ride down Thursday night, or Friday morning/night depending on work & schedules. Departure would be at checkout on Sunday (assume 10-11 AM). Rough assumptions: Lodging: (If 6 people @ a house (VRBO, airbnb, etc) $120 per person, per night (each want a bed - can change) Food: Group breakfast & dinner Friday & Saturday = $15 per person, per meal = $60. All lunch/snacks on your own & as needed while riding. Miles Ridden: 300 +/- there, 150 +/- per day, 300 +/- return = 900 +/- total miles. 30 gallons of gas @ $3.50/gal = $105 in gas Lots more to figure out as we narrow dates & attendees. Just wanted to get a starting point out there.
