We stay at the Red Hill Motel operated by Patty Holder.  You may reach her at 530 623 4331.  She's usually around afternoons and evenings until 8 pm Pacific time. Rates are reasonable and there is a nice center court where we all hang out.  Downtown Weaverville is a short walk.  Museums, the Joss House and restaurants in this pretty little mountain community.  The riding is varied and good.  In addition to riding and the aforementioned attractions are numerous opportunities for hiking and other outdoor activities.  I'll get some routes and photos up in the next few days.

Spring Torrey ... what could be better !  This is one of the longest running BMWST events.  Great riding in Utah !  If you've never been, please consider joining us.  This is a standard BMWST "unorganized event" .... meaning there's no formal parade rides, no vendors and no formal dinners.  Show up and you'll be welcome.  Folks that attend generally break up into small groups going in various directions / routes.  One group or another will always welcome a new rider !!
 
To give new Members a flavor of what BMWSportTouring Events are all about ... Torrey is included but also a lot of other events over the years .  Regulars might get to re-live some moments  ...

Fall Torrey ... another great opportunity to meet fellow riders and enjoy some really great riding.  If you've never been, this is one of the oldest meetings of this forum.  And, unlike other Internet Forums, we encourage you to get out on the road and make new friends or just catch up with old ones.
 

 
The headquarters for the event is Austin's Chuckwagon Motel
 Although there are many hotels in the area, its best to book early !!
 
Everyone is welcome ... you don't have to ride a BMW.  We have lots of folks with Yamaha, Triumph, Honda and others.  Hope to see you there.

The second oldest continual event, held in the same location, for BMWST.
We meet in Cedar Key, Florida, one of the coolest old Florida coastal communties.
Meet and greet for lunch on the Saturday before the Super Bowl.
Many stay for the weekend.
This event began in 2005 as a way for fellow riders to start the year with friends in a beautiful setting.
This is an opportunity to initiate and maintain friendships from our on line riding community.
