Dear Frens,

Damn, into November already, it's past time to copy and paste again! If you've been you know how special this event is. If you're thinking about it - DO IT! The Blueridge Parkway, the Cherohala Skyway, the Tail of The Dragon, Route 28 - riding with frens makes these epic twisties even epic-er.

(You'll be even faster in the evening when you recount the day's adventures over beers (and whatever) in the parking lot.

See attached pic for room and cabin rates. We strongly encourage folks to PLEASE BOOK A ROOM IN THE LODGE rather than hiding in the far off cabins. It's more fun to drunkenly scrum in the bike filled parking lot.

(I dearly hope I can make it. I've applied to a certification program and if accepted I'd be in San Francisco on 5/3, 5/4, and 5/5 and that's a lot of country to travel in a short amount of time! might have to do the fly-and-rent-a-bike thing again)

I really wanted to be there for X but we have reservations to be in Ireland from that weekend through the next to catch the NorthWest 200.

Didn't we talk about moving down to the Cabana lower level rooms?

 

[DuckMan]

I’ve stayed in the cabanas every year except two. I think it would be a way to bring back the good old days of the parking lot party. The main lot has gotten too civilized and the cabana lot is more private.

But the contract with Fontana would need to be renegotiated. Right now it does not allow for special pricing for cabana rooms. Last year I was able to get the reduced rate because all the reserved rooms for us were already booked.

I thought this was discussed and agreed to before the end of ECM IV...I mean IX.

 

[Varmitcong]

What is this ECMX? Electric Cycle Motocross?

 

[dadridesagain]

I just emailed Marie about reserving Cabana rooms at a special rate...let's see what she can do.

 

[DuckMan]

Let me know as soon as she sets it up so I can reserve MY room that I always get. It'll be fun to see if and who gets the famous blow job room upstairs by the pool. That room is more famous than if Elvis had slept there.

 

[t-bills]

What's that room's number?

 

[DuckMan]

I’m not telling that. You crazy?

I thought we were friends. For that, I'm going to slip some PR2s on your bike when you aren't looking.

 

[DuckMan]

I wouldn’t even have to go out of my room to know. I would hear those tires sucking in my sleep.

Or you are just hearing the room whose number you won't disclose. :laugh:

I'll decide between COTA MotoGP or this but I can't do both. Won't know for a while.
