Microtel - Home Sweet home! Stayed there last year and it's called "Micro" for a reason. Gat to call today and book myself in.

 
I scouted the road through Frost Valley on my way home from work yesterday. The road surface is about the same as last year. Some new patches have been put down very sloppily leaving lots of loose black gravel across the road near the patches, so we'll have to keep our eyes open for that.

[SIZE=12pt]That road was a little bumpy from patches the last time I went through there in 2006.[/SIZE]

We have let Iris go through first so the turbulence from her bike will blow all the loose stuff away!

And you have to suffer another Masshole, Audioguy (from the old old forum) is riding in with me from central Mass. He's one of the few people I look up to, he makes the FJR look like a pocketbike.

[SIZE=12pt]See you all at Sweet Sue's![/SIZE]

I got the upgraded room for whatever that means because they didn't explain what exactly is upgraded. I read some reviews about the rooms being small. For $3.00 more a night I figured whatever it is, it wasn't much money. I will probably spend more money on Beers when the day is done. Now to figure out a leisurely route to head up there since we have Thurseday and Friday off.

See ya there! LEST THAN A WEEK TO GO!!!! :yahoo:

 
I have a friend with an '07 FJR coming up from NJ. He's definitely riding with us on Friday but may not stick around for Saturday.

$3.00 upgrade & BEER!!!! Now you're talking - & I just had a box of Rocky Patel cigars show up today - perhaps we can work out some sort of "trade" :drinks: :smokin:

 
Just made my reservation at the Microtel, Thurs-Sat. Coming from Eastern WV. Will probably slab it to make time :(

$3.00 more a night and you get a frig & microwave - not a bad idea -there is a convenient store & gas station right across the parking lot as I recall from last year.

 
Ah, I wish I could join youse guys. It's not too far for me to get there. But I simply cannot get away next weekend. My wife is teaching a seminar at Columbia on Saturday so I'm with the kids.

I hope you all ride safe! I hope to hear you all had a great time and NOBODY went down!

[SIZE=12pt]Well come out to play on Friday then! You know these roads better than all of us. You look sick on Friday too :rolleyes: [/SIZE]

I do hope everyone rides their own ride and does not lock up the rear brake right into a guardrail again :blink:

No - not this time - got a sampler box af a few I haven't had before - but love the Vintage '90s

 
Jim and I just returned from a 3400+ mile ride in sw CO and NM trip. Lots of fun....lots of different weather....lots of pics. Not much rubber left on the tires though.

Anyway, we're glad to see all of the positive responses for the "Cats and Dacks" ride, and look forward to meeting all of you.

See you Friday and Saturday. :yahoo:

-Iris

 
Just got my new top case today, so I'll be there in style - and I won't be alone!

Also, I'm really glad to hear you guys are home safe & sound (well safe anyway).
