Cale tried to kill me with that trip home from CFR.. :lol:
I don't know who this Cale character is but I won't ride with him ever again
Dear Brother Barry, Since it is Friday and also Christmas Eve, would you kindly tell Party Pooper HotRodZilla to please put a **** in it? Thank You Very Much!!!
I'll put a **** in it, but this time you have to promise not to gag! That ruins the mood.
Seriously...I'm not trying to be a party pooper, but I don't see the reasoning for having the meet during the week.
Remember, this is Taos...The night life will be slower during the week, but the traffic during the day will still suck, because lots of people commute to Espanola, Santa Fe, and Los Alamos. I was in Taos on Monday and Tuesday, and the traffic through there on Tuesday afternoon headed home sucked balls.
I don't see how it really reduces needed vacation time for anyone, but do see how it increases it for those that are close. When I go to EOM, I am gone 7 days and take 5 of those as vacation. That would happen regardless of the days of the week the ride is because it takes me two to head out and two to get back.
I honestly don't know why we don't move this event back into August or late July. The weather is awesome, the roads are great, and we are not trying to keep from interfering with EOM, Labor Day and WCR (is that it? I don't remember). September is a big camping month in NM because everyone is trying to get a last trip in before the season ends. If we move to earlier in the year, we also won't have to contend with the BMW rally going on at the same time.
AND as I have said before, if we have it during the week and school is on, some people won't be able to go due to issues with getting the kids to school and events.
I know all these issues aren't everyone's problems, but that is my $.02. Set it for when you want Don. If I can go, I will, and if not, I won't.
