roadscholar Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I wondered when you were going to finally come around! Yes I'm partial but within a 60 mile radius there's no better riding in the Eastern U.S., paved or DS. Town has some decent eateries as well. For you Westies this would be a good time to come East. For those that are familiar with the area, there's more, quite a bit more. Link to comment

Matts_12GS Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 IN most likely. +1 or maybe 2 Link to comment
tallman Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Bill, Agree. Checked at the Probably Inn but someone got the last room. So we're booked at the Most Likely INN. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 IN most likely. +1 or maybe 2 I'm not sure if my shoes cost enough for me to be seen in Highlands....I'll get back to you on this. Link to comment

Lone_RT_rider Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 We'll just tell them you're there to polish the bikes Nah, then one of the owners of the dozen or so Maybach's in town will want their car detailed. No thanks. Link to comment
Marty Hill Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Room reserved/hope I'm back east by then. Link to comment
Foot Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Reservations made, great location Ken! Link to comment
Endobob Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Thank you Ken for again taking on yet another BMWST event. I plan, and hope, to be there! It is, however,getting increasingly difficult to find time to keep my dental practice operational. Link to comment

It is, however,getting increasingly difficult to find time to keep my dental practice operational. I know it seems like a lot of events. Adding the East coast UN makes it seem rapid fire, but I want to go to HeleN Back this year before moving the Spring event to another location and of course I like FARTing around with you people Link to comment
racer7 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Ken you are one event planning honcho this year for sure. Now if just paid better it could be your next career. Another good choice... Assuming Becky agrees, we'll be there. Link to comment
Joe Frickin' Friday Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 We'll just tell them you're there to polish the bikes Nah, then one of the owners of the dozen or so Maybach's in town will want their car detailed. No thanks. You'll be wearing $1500 worth of riding gear and straddling a $20,000 bike; you'll blend in just fine. Just avoid parking next to the schmuck who rides in blue jeans and covers his seat with a sliced-up garbage bag at night to keep the dew off. Link to comment
TN_R_Girl Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 If I can make it ... it will be VERY last minute. Many jury trials scheduled that month, including one the following Monday. Boo. Link to comment

SSTwin Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 IN! Just hope I can keep it clear on the schedule. See you soon in Helen. Thanks Ken! Link to comment
TN_R_Girl Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Come on Shannon, what is more important, the Constitution of the United States or F.A.R.T.(ing) around? Terry That's the WRONG question to ask me this week Terry! Link to comment
terryofperry Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Or any week I'm sure, very "tact"ful answer. Country before bike always, never a doubt. Be safe Terry Link to comment
TN_R_Girl Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Actually Terry... this week I'd chuck it all and say bike over everything. Some days my job is very satisfying; some days not so much. This week it falls in the second category and I wish very much I could toss it all out the window and come FART around Link to comment
terryofperry Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hang in there Ms. Shannon, virtual hugs. Be well Terry Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hang in there Ms. Shannon, virtual hugs. Be well Terry She has virtual hugz coming from all directions. We all miss her.... Link to comment
Id's_OK Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 In! Thanks, Ken! One of the best things about the Mountain High is they're pet friendly, so Jenn and Biscuit will be right at home. I mean, how could you just leave this at home?: Link to comment
rogera Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Out for this one, heading to Fall Torrey this year. Link to comment
Marty Hill Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I will not be back from the west coast in time so just cx'd my res. I hope they choke on the $25 they kept. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Marty, the next time I see you, a $25 dollar dinner is on me. Life's too short man. Shawn Link to comment

roadscholar Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Looked all over but in the end Asheville was the place, at least in part to some obvious (and twisty) reasons. Good choice and welcome to the 'hood! Here are some very good reasons. 28,281,215,276,209,197,80,226a,and 9. There's a lot more but this should keep ya busy for awhile. Link to comment

I could care less about that. That is supreme BS! 5 months in advance after taking the charge 6 months ahead. Marty, I just spoke to my contact at the hotel and the $25 will be refunded to you. FYI to everyone, you will not be charged a cancelation fee if you cancel before September the 1st. After the 1st you would forfeit the entire deposit. If someone finds out they will need to cancel after 9/1 I would suggest they mention it on this thread and see if the room can be transferred to someone else who may want to join us and does not have a reservation yet.

Marty Hill Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Ken, I'm sorry I caused some extra work for you. I think I owe you a $25 dinner now. Hope this helps others as well. Thanks! Link to comment
Kinsley Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 I would like to see your Photos... If you have a photo that you think would represent our FART, send it to me for consideration, I may use it if it doesn't stink I will be designing the logo for the 2013 FART sometime in June. kinsley@insleyimages.com Link to comment
Kinsley Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 As many of us have out minds on the UN we're attending very soon, I want to remind you all about a FART I'll be having in Highlands in September Link to comment
