I'd rather not be at the top of your list with Mr. Mather, so just add me to the bottom of the list. grin.gif

 

It's not a sure thing by any means, and lately I seem to jinx myself everytime I say "IN!" But I cleared my calendar, rescheduled 3 projects, denied all of my staff's Thanksgiving vacation requests, and made a special offering to the weather gods for good weather during that weekend. cool.gif

 

Now we'll see if I can put an end to this jinx of mine. lurker.gif

That would be cool! smile.gif

 

Also, if anyone is going to be rooming with someone on Leslie's list above let us know, otherwise we'll assume you're getting your own room. Thanks.

Gee, I didn't get cold enough last time, so I am IN provided it is on MLK weekend. thumbsup.gif

Alright, I'm so confused. What days are the Pre-Run? What hotel/motel are you planning and is there a keyword for the group rate?

Link to comment

You are surely confused. All the answers are in this thread. Wait a bit on the group rate as the Kaiser still needs to work that out. At this point put your name in the hat if you think you can go. The leaders will then direct you as to the next steps to take when they need you to take them.

Pay attention to my tag line.

Mmmmm.....cat herding......I don't need anyone else to confuse me, as I can do it all myself. I am IN for DVD in January, but not in for the Pre Run, as I need to celebrate a very famous birthday on November 17.

 

Mine. lmao.gif

I guess it's time to just lock this hopelessly hijacked thread clogged with distracting chatter and start again . . . no attempt at a good deed goes unpunished. *sigh* smirk.gif

Jamie,

 

I sense a little frustration from you regarding this forum lately...

 

Stop typing and ride more. thumbsup.gif

 

(still love you anyway...)

Gee thanks for that little pearl of advice--it's aways so helpful to be told I need to ride more. tongue.gif

 

I've ridden over 9000 miles in the last two months thank you very much, and though I don't know you all that well yet . . . I love you too in a way. smirk.gif

 

Perhaps I do need a break from this place (and it's not even "winter" yet!), but unfortunately many of my good friends are here and I wouldn't want to cut off my nose to spite my face! grin.gif

 

Everyone go ahead and finish off this thread with your humor and other unrelated contributions. We'll start a new one when the recon ride info is solidified. thumbsup.gif

I have absolutely nothing to contribute, related or unrelated, and I'm not feeling particularly humorous at the moment. So please disregard this post. (I just wanted to get it in before it was too late to detract from the mission at hand.)

Me either. I wish I could go but am recovering from a nasty Staph infection (MRSA). How's that for not being the least bit humorous... Luckily they started the right antibiotics in time. Could have lost my finger or hand, as it is I should recover fine. Will be in for the January ride. Hope you all have fun on the pre-ride.

I've got an update for ya ................ The KRS is still in the shop and waiting for the guys in Germany to send all the parts to put it back together. lurker.gif

Hopefully I'll have it before the next Torrey ride in May.

 

So for now, my little road trips will have be limited to Willow Springs Raceway and possibly Laguna Seca in Dec. instead. eek.gif

 

Have fun you guys and don't forget to say Hi to the ladies in Beatty for me. thumbsup.gif

Been wondering if there is any further update so decided to bring this back to the top--

I'm in communication with Tom "azkaisr" right now about the details. He's got work issues that might conflict for him and we're trying to work things out. The dates will likely stay the same and we'll have lodging info up by the weekend.

 

Thanks for your patience.

That boy has more issues than just work!

I mean come on look at what he is wearing.

I know he's all Germanic and everything but does he have to dress like a German tourist too! dopeslap.gifthumbsup.gifclap.giflmao.gif

If you're still trying to keep a count, count me as a belated IN!

Does any one know if there is still room to go on this trip. If so I can see if I can get off.

 

 

There should be plenty of room for ya, can't imagine the Armagossa Valley casino being sold out as it's kinda out on the edge of nowhere, just the way we like it!

 

See ya there wave.gif

First, the Pre-Run's size is not limited--all are welcome!

 

Second, it looks like the Amargosa Valley location (the Longstreet Casino) is out for the Pre-Run location. He wants waaaaaaay too much for the rooms and it appears that nothing else that was an issue with previous years has improved any (same surly management, no premium gas in town, mediocre food, no cellphone or internet options, no sheltered parking, etc.).

 

So it looks like we'll likely be checking out Beatty again to see if it can provide anything better/closer for our bigger January group than Pahrump did this last January. Pahrump is still a fine fall-back position (even if some feel it's too far away grin.gif ) so if we can't find something in Beatty that looks solidly better than Pahrump we may just go back there.

 

Tom or I have to call tomorrow morning and talk to the group rate manager to see if we can knock any more off the room rates for the Pre-Run group so stay tuned!

 

If you're on Leslie's last updated list we'll count you for one room each. If you can't go, or if you're rooming with someone else on the list, please let me know and I'll know then how many rooms we need to book to get a group rate. Don't worry, there are plenty of rooms to be had--and they'll be less than $50.00 each! thumbsup.gif

 

Thanks for your patience everyone, and tomorrow I've also got to put some fresh rubber on Maynard if I'm going to make it home from Nevada next weekend! blush.gif

I guess sheltered parking would be a primary concern this year.... considering the last BMWST gathering:

Sorry, Bullett and I won't be able to make the ride. I will be taking a weekend long test and feeling rather sorry for myself whilst you guys are out having fun. We tried to make it fit, but this one just won't work out.
