Karen627 Ex Member	Re: Ideas for Next Group Ride Reply #60 - 08/22/05 at 23:28:08 All right, I'll go first. I've bitten the proverbial bullet and booked a room for the weekend of September 24th up near Robbinsville, NC.

I am REALLY dissappointed that I will miss this ride. Before Beverly dove down the steps and busted up her leg I was planning out my routes (several in and out of the area...I was going to make a week of it) and looking up the area hotels. She had airline reservations to go to see the new grandbaby and was set to leave on the 8th of Sep and return on the 22nd. That would give me all the time I needed to ride anywhere I wanted and stay as long as I wanted....but now we are both homebound for about 5 months.
By the way, she just came out of surgury about 15 minutes ago and everything went just fine.
So, I cannot go but I do wish all of the rest of you a great ride...have fun and remember those of us who are stuck at home watching TV and emptying bedpans.

I don't think Iwant to miss a ride like this and if I am alive and in a good health, I'll come from Az.

I'm glad to hear surgery went well. We'll remember you -- but we may try to forget the bedpan part, if that's all right...

I am a new rider but it seems like alot of fun. I know quite a few riders with crotch rockets that have been to the Tail of the Dragon and they really enjoyed it. Plus it is more pretty than Mid Ga.

Then hop aboard. Grin

A few of us have said we can do the weekend of the 24th, and hubby and I went ahead and booked a room for that weekend regardless of whether the Savage ride is confirmed for that date, since it's the only weekend the hubby and I were able to both get off work anyway.

I figure even if the Savage/S40 group Dragon ride has to be re-scheduled, at least hubby and I will get a weekend in the mountains. But I don't know if anyone else has been able to "officially" confirm that date themselves yet, though, so as far as I know, it's still subject to change if others decide a different date is more convenient.

Did that make sense? ???

SAVAGE STURGIS

While simultaneously enjoying a favorite brew and surfing Google this notion came to mind:

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Sturgis,+MS&spn=0.140027,0.144161&hl=en

Also the Nachez Trace Parkway runs by just a few miles away, Sturgis being almost 1/2 way up the Parkway.

http://www.nps.gov/natr/index.htm

Well looks like the HD folks just had a small rally at that one too.

It was about 103* just after noon here in the pits Sunday (anyone who watched the NHRA race here Sunday knows) August is not the time to do something like that, but I would say maybe October would be better.

I don't know anything about FSSNOC except that it's there and seems to be located in southeast Kansas?

There's an Illini game on Saturday Sept. 10, or someone had mentioned Starved Rock at one point, maybe the weekend of the 25th?

Whats up dubb-1b, I'm about 15 min north of you in Macon.
I plan on going on the 24th and I believe my brother and a group of his cycle buddies are going that weekend as well. --Note to others on this ride - I believe I will be staying at the Deal's Gap end of the dragon - anybody staying there? This is the store/motel that sells the "I slayed the dragon" t-shirts.

Dubb-1b....Shoot me an email - marke2571@yahoo.com and maybe we can hook up and ride locally sometimes as well.

Sounds good to me, but as far as I have seen there isn't much to see in Kansas. If we head south we might be able to pick up some of the Texas Clan. Any Texans want to chime in on this!! 8)
