Lone_RT_rider Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Tom, Sorry you can't make it. Hope to see you in the fall. Gil, very very cool! Make sure to bring that GQ underwear model with you. He is the only one that still laughs at my jokes. Shawn Link to comment
Kinsley Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Make sure to bring that GQ underwear model with you. He is the only one that still laughs at my jokes. Shawn Marty's always there, parked under the canopy, but I'm not sure he'll model for you this year Sorry Marty, I had to give shawn something to visualize, but I'm sure the tiki bartender will like it.

TyTass Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Paul, You should not only be "there" on the registration list but it seems to me we should all already be "there" (I mean physically in Maggie Valley), also. I think the clock is slow! tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, ... Link to comment
mikeR1100R Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Georgi and I are going to have to bow out. We will be closing on our house right about that time and will need the vacation time to do something much less fun,like getting ready to move. Have a great time everyone! Link to comment

Everyone think positive thoughts. Good vibes. Hey there Bob! I wouldn't worry too much about the weather until mid next week. To the BRR group: I guess it's time for another little tip on the weather in this area. As I have said before (Both Spring and Fall of 2008) the weather in the mountains is really, really unpredictable. If you check the weather the night before, you MIGHT, I repeat MIGHT be able to trust the weather for the next day. Last fall we were supposed to see some serious doom and gloom and we ended up with some pretty decent weather. If your checking the 10 day forcast and expecting that to be any representation of what the weather will be at that time, well..... you probably have just as good of a chance of hitting the lottery. If your playing, grab me a ticket while your at it. Shawn Link to comment

Also, most of the weather comes from the SW, so if a front is moving in, ride towards it and turn around when you hit the edge of it, you might just go all day. Link to comment
