northeast rally
 

since the twfix rally south is happening soon, i was thinking about the northeast one that cf used to have at gettysburg. would anyone be interested in it?

I got some time off the last week of sep. I'm looking to ride somewhere.

maybe this one I could actually attend....

I can be in Gettysburg in 45 minutes. And if Gas Man is there you know I'm coming.

We have a rally in Towanda, PA (normally, but the gas people took all the hotels through next year) the weekend after Labor Day. I'm not sure if we're going or not, as we haven't settled on a new location. That could be a possibility...

i like this whole last week in september thing. lets settle on a date and then figure out the location

I like it too.

:rockout:

I think it would be cool. Not hot, decent weather, and a good bang before the end of the season.

My place to Gettysburg... 7.5hrs/440miles

I'm in for Gettysburg. Always had fun at those rallys.

One of the guys on CF has family that owns the hotel we always stay at. Nice big parking lot that is easily taken over and nice cheap room rates.

It's possible the Cycleforums folks may actually do this rally again on Labor Day weekend.

I'll be in either IN or Germany on my way to Kosovo. Sorry kiddies, not this year.

Marko... is there anything going on that last week of Sep??? Also cheap first floor parking lot level motels?

Id be in too. Actually I could probably just meet up with gas man as hes comin through ohio and ride out with him and whoever else.

Decent!!

:rockwoot:

That week doesn't strike me with anything going on. I'm not terribly familiar with the hotels in Gburg...but we can certainly figure that out easy enough.

Any roads in the area?

Fuck it Id try and make two rallys...I could meet the whole board almost that way!!

if you want you can meet up with me and head over there

Na, you'd still be missing the central and west coast guys.

that sounds like marko for "I''m not gonna be there"

SCHNAP!!

:lol

dude, you could totally crash on my couch. i live maybe 20 mins. from gbg. max. any chance uma would travel with ya? :rockout:

is this thread a joke? With marko actually agreeing to ride somewhere AND meet people it just seems a bit sureal.

No, you need a parachute to get there.

JC

That would be cool Kim, thanks! I would need to keep the money tight being I have a mexico trip at the end of oct that I need to spend money on.

I highly doubt Uma would come, and even if she did I can tell you she wouldnt ride out on her bike.

Shit if you're are cool enough like me.

:?:

could we be expecting the return of the messiah at this rally?

Only if there's no cake...

I'd be in if you don't discriminate against slow bikes. :rockwoot: I'm about an hour from GB.

You're wrong. I only say that when you are gonna be around.

what are you gonna do when I go to PA... you're gonna have to ride more than 15min from you're house then... :lol:


Ya'll missed a good rally... fuck'n weather held off enough for us to get at least a half a day of riding in every day. OUT FUCKING STANDING.

if ya'll put it near Indy time frame... I may be able to take extra time off and hit up both... (barring any Hurricaines as I'll be called back to work)

PA would still be a long ride. How about something just a little more south and a little more west? Gas loan me the nightster.. :lol

we could always do it on OH-IO... although there is exactly SHIT to do here.

I thought SE OH had good roads.

actually, they really do. 555 is pretty intense.

What about WV? think it'd be close enough for the NY and MI folks to join in... the PA folks would have 0 excuses... and as long as we plan for like late June... we should have good weather. :idk:

eta... I was talking about 2010...

i'm down for WV but late june is no good. i got a senior exam at the station and 2 weeks of consistent drunkeness during my b-day

like I said... 2010... no way I could do anything this year... Indy in Aug is iffy...

I can't do anything in June. September is perfect.

then i'm setting the date for Sept 20th. who wants to choose the location?

I'm going... we'll be fine and more comforatable

Shit... you wouldn't want that ride on the sporty.

Then i'm out. Can't do it till the week after towards Oct 1st. Hell couldn't even leave till any earlier than Sep 22nd but then would have to be back on Sep 25th. I am out for Sep26/27th cause I'll be out of town with the wife.

damnit, fine you set the date then

I would say Oct 2-4 for a weekend time
or anytime the week before that w/e

Lets see what other say.

Im game for any weekend around that time.

Me too.

Bear in mind that me and Ebbs probably won't be there. That's the whole reason this one got started on CF, because I got turned back from their Laber Day weekend ride. But I'll try, anyway. Hell, I have family close, maybe I could dump the kid and bring my wife!

Why did you get turned back?

hurricane duty

Feck....that sounds like the kind of fun that isn't.

so how about we make the rally oct 2-7 so we at least have a date.

and i found where i am staying http://gettysburgcampground.com/

I'm for it.

Zeos said he wanted to a while back, just that it woul dbe planned on a different or a dummy site for all the regulars. karens best freind is getting married that weekend and I told her too bad we cant go to the wedding. that didnt go over too well. Even still I would still make it there in some shape or form to hang out.

If they do the other one in october I would be down to go as well. its only 2 and a half hrs from my house.

i maquested it and it was like 4 hours from nyc. I need to make it back there to visit since i haven't been in a couple of years, maybe i can time it to coincide depending on my schedule. I won't have a bike though, so i may have to beg to ride bitch if you guys go on any rides :lol:

Ms. Tsunami, you'd probably have to beat offers away with a stick :lol:

if i get the ninja fixed by then i'll be able to loan you a bike

Lets hope so or i'll be sitting drinking hot chocolate by myself at the cabin :lol:

What kind of ninja? I can't touch the ground on most bikes so unless you plan on standing there when i take off and catching me when i stop, that may not be a good idea!

you'll have to fight rogue to see who gets to use the ninja and who has to ride the marauder but both are pretty low to the ground. and i can always lower them beforehand

i'll just ride in back of rogue then, i'm sure she won't say no to me!

between the 2 of you, there may be the weight of a normal person :lol:

that is just a boner waiting to happen

:lol:

Cool by me

I do have some practice with that now :lol:

bwahahaha- seen some of the DGMR pics? :whatwhat:

I'm marking those dates on my calendar! :rockout:

Unless the bike is low enough, I can't ride anyone pillion. :(

who do i have to flick to get a sticky around here?

:(

Well i hope someone is going to be riding a cruiser or a VFR/other comfy sport tourer that i can bum rides off of. My days breaking my back on a sportbike is over.

i got a cruiser you can ride if rogues taking the ninja

Riding on the back of a sport bike can sometimes be no joke either.

DragonPaco has 2 extra beater bikes....a cruiser and a sporty. Ride the cruiser. ;)

they aint beaters!!!! i sold the cb. the zook and the ace are beautiful

Sure you can- we proved this. Many of us can flatfoot from the rear seat. :lol:
Paging EricR and Kerry129! Eric can move on that VTX, even two up.

You riding to Gettysburg? Shit, there's a lot of people around this board as crazy as I am! :?:

what's scarier is that her SV has the stock effin' seat. Torture rack anyone?

I moved this thread to Events and stuck it.

mark138: working for you.

I have big comfy cruiser. And I almost made it to Getysburg last year...

where's your orange vest? :lol:

I didnt think Id see the day that you started arranging to meet with a group of people to ride with.


I just mapquested it and got about 5 hours and just under 300 miles. Thats reasonable especially if I meet up with Gas or nts or can convince race doll and her husband to come out for the ride.

If I have a GS, I am going to make this, at least for one or two nights.

Don't kid yourself...I'm only coming one day. And I might bail early once I get a feel for you jokers.

Ill probably only be there a couple nights as well.

Thats more like it.

It will probably a day trip or an overnight for me as well - depends on how much travel is scheduled for me during that time.

And if they let ya back in the country redflip

Tom

I'm not THAT far north.

Dork.

redflip

Pssh- it's only like 200 miles for me. Nothing, really. If it's half the fun of this rally, I can't wait.

if we stay near or at where we stay for the CF rally theres a cool go kart place up the road.

Tom

Do you think we will get kicked out of that one or will they just give up like the other one did?

They may try to, last time I was there I saw peopel get tossed and I got yelled at for knocking a car OFF the track.:rockwoot:

Tom

You only got yelled at because it was fucking spectacular!

Had it been a lame ass attempt, you would have gotten the boot . :lol:

i will admit that it was, karen and chris were laughing their asses off next time I came around and I was pumping my fist out of the car. So what if it was an 11 year old kid he got in my way.

Tom

Try riding that stock seat for 18 hours! :panic:

Sargeant seat FTW!

eff that. I have a gel seat for a reason.

because you have a sensitive ass :lol:

Tom

hemorrhoids?

I'm too ticklelish to ride a passenger, unless my long legged passenger doesnt mind holding onto the grab rail.

yeah. exit only.


I just needed to quote that before you realize what you typed :lol:

:lol: i need to proofread more often

What, they were trying to tell us something? Sorry, didn't see it :lol:
We weren't that bad. I want to know how it went off the track :nopic:
The ninja's seat is much more comfy. You're always welcome to sit on it :dribble:
There's a solution for the first...razor. :whatwhat: And those of us with long arms can damn near drive (the bike) from the rear seat!

And you want to do that again? I think that calls for wings...as in fly your ass to the NE rally and beg borrow or steal a bike.

thats whats she's doing. she's flying to PA meeting up with me, borrowing one of my ladies and riding with me and a buddy to the rally
