SAMSAR Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 Must be a number of people dropping out. I was 5 on the wait list a couple of months ago and got a call that a room was availble last week. They must have had several as I had my choice of room types. A couple here and there have needed to cancel but actually the room adjustments have been from either people combining rooms or changing to tenting or different motels. Glad you were able to get a room at UN HQ. You're going to love the views! Paul Link to comment

Kathy R Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Paul, maybe I should look at a used R bike? Marty, Have you got one for sale? Can't wait to see all you peeps. Sharon, thank you and I am really looking forward to meeting you and the rest of the attending BMWST gang. It has been a long time since I saddled up. WHOOOHOOOO! Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Mitch and I will see you there Kathy. This is great news. Now if you could just coax Jake and Knappy out on the road.... Shawn Link to comment
Paul Mihalka Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 "Paul, maybe I should look at a used R bike?" Kathy, a R850R or R1100R would be in your price range and are good bikes. It will be GREAT to see you again. For me it was much more than two years... Link to comment

It will be GREAT to see you again. For me it was much more than two years... Kathy, I love Rainy's R1100R and given my experience on the RT's I would probably tour on it without any issues. It doesn't have the leg coverage for weather, but with the BMW windscreen, with protection for the rest of you is just fine. I would add one more caveat though, If I were looking for an R11XXR bike, I would at least get the twin spark motor that came out in 2004. It's light years better than the original oilhead motor. That would be an R1150R. Shawn Link to comment
Kathy R Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Shawn Knappy and Jake are on single props these days. Can't say as I blame them one bit. Makes for great time with the family. I'm going to check out the 04+ 1150R too. See you in a couple months. Whoohoo! Paul, now, when I said $3500 I meant in that range I know, I know. I've-a-got-me some two wheel fever. Help, someone take my purse. Link to comment
Paul Mihalka Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Depends how much the $3.500 is on a rubber band. A 2000/2001 R1100R would be close. A 2004 R1150R would be a bit more but worth it. Stay away from any 2002 R1150xx. Don't ask me why... Link to comment
Effjay Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I've been procrastinating doing this for some time, but just now cancelled my reservation for Room 11 at Roger's. Next in line on standby should be getting a call... Jeff Link to comment
BMW_Ken Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 If anyone that currently has a room reservation is looking for a room mate, please PM me. Thanks. Ken Link to comment
Kathy R Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 I just gave up my room at Coos, if anyone needs it? I was fortunate enough to have moved over to Rogers Motel. Link to comment
LOST on my LT Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Anybody have a room that would like to split the cost on? I have a tent as well, so no biggie, but I will have been tenting it for a week before and nearly a week after so a bed and shower would be nice. I'll be at the Damn Yankees BMW rally in Heath, Mass the weekend before this if anyone wants to ride up with me. Link to comment
SAMSAR Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 Hi Everyone, Just got a call from Sonny at the Coos Motel. He was wondering if the event was cancelled as his room reservations went from 12 to 3 over the past week or so . He was as surprised as I was that it had dropped that low. I was thinking the new registants might have been backfilling for the transfers to Roger's. I definitely want to keep the UN HQ motel full :thumbsup:but if anyone is on the fence about staying in a hotel vs tenting or otherwise, I'd request keeping the Coos in mind so we can throw him a few more rooms. UNrally reservations are continuing to rise so I'm thinking we should be able to do this. By the way... I just checked registrations and we are up to 117 . If you are thinking about joining us, get signed up soon if you can. We are putting the final orders in soon for t-shirts and such. You are welcome to attend even last minute but we want to make sure we have enough food and stuff for everyone. Cheers! Paul Link to comment
MikeRC Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I'm one of the cancellations but I just moved from the Coos to Roger's as another room had come open. Couldn't decide at first since I saw an advantage to being in the town, but decided that riding in for supper wasn't so bad. Mike Cassidy Link to comment
SAMSAR Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Mike, No worries at all... The UN HQ motel at Rogers is the more ideal location as the rooms are just as nice, the views are great, and you will be more central to the evening activities. I'm glad you were able to move up the list and lock down a room. Ditto for everyone else too! Paul Link to comment
Firefight911 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Officially called and canceled Jamie's and my reservation today. We hung on but events have conspired to make this one just not possible. Room #5 should be available now!!! Link to comment
JustJean Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I haven't gotten to meet you yet either! I so wanted to see Jamie again. I'm bummed. Link to comment
Bill in Vermont Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Spare bed anywhere? I have room 51 booked for three people, and doubt a cot will bit easily, so would be glad to split the cost of a room for at least Monday and Tuesday. Thanks Link to comment
Kathy R Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I am sorry to hear that news. I was looking forward to meeing you both. Link to comment
RT_Jim Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Another room is available - I've had to cancel. I'm not happy, but I'm not going to be able to make it this year. Jim Link to comment
