I hope so - she doesn't like to camp though. Any extra rooms in that b&b??
Yes but don't wait too long to make a reservation. They fill up fast once the nice weather comes. There is no payment required to book a room, but you do need to give a credit card number.

is this a multi-day deal? just figuring out what sort of attendance me and/or my wife could swing, and what baby sitting favors we'd need to call in.

YOu can stay for a day or you can stay for two or three.

It would be great if you and Mrs. Narlus could make it! :)

Most of us roll into town at various times Friday and leave Sunday afternoon. Some people just come for Saturday and leave Sunday morning. Really, whenever you want to come is totally up to you.

For those of us who get there early enough Friday, we usually try to get a late afternoon ride in.

I thought we took it pretty easy, everyone always waited for everyone. Anyone on a SS certainly appreciates the rest time :D
you were looking pretty spent on that SS toward the end of the ride , especilly when you swapped bikes with tweek.

yup...last year I did a friday afternoon ride, a latter in the day ride, then a night ride including going back up that big arse hill back to camp (as fast as I could), then the big ride on Saturday, followed by a saturday night ride........

oh plus you can always ride the stunts/jumps at the camp


dang...I'm tired just thinking about riding that much

No kidding! :dead: I'm not sure I can hang with you guys, I'll be off-the-back all day long. :(
Bah, don't worry about it, everyone has a great time, and I've never heard anyone complain about the pace being too fast OR too slow :)

So is this actually going down because it sounds like a lot of fun to me. If so lets get a confirmed place and date and I'm down, always a good time riding some bikes, having some beers, and meeting some new people.

I can't plan that far in advance, but if I remember the weekend before, I should be able to make it.

I'll be coming with several police officers in case you decide to "wrestle" anyone. So shut the fu#k up.

I think we should all chill and just let JerseyDave come if he wants to.

Let's take the high road monkeys! :thumb:

Of course I'll be there. Unless everyone bails because you decided to try and prove your manliness and ruin everyone's fun.

JerseyDave if you have something to say to me feel free to PM me. Any personal crap you post here will be gone.
