Do we know the exact room #s we will be staying at at the Gap Hotel?

Trying to meet at the Resort Area (or Cafe if you will) is kinda like shooting craps with hundreds of people gathered clogging up the parking lot with half of every rider group gone to run the Dragon at any given point in time.   It is a very fluid confusing place.

It might be good for folks to know the Gap Hotel room numbers as well (if we can get them ahead of time).

Remember -- cell phones don't work up there (unless they just put in a tower up there this spring, which I kinda doubt).   We can't count on cell phone number swapping to do us any good.

We need landmarks to meet at as it looks like we really have a Friday Sat group and a Saturday Sunday group kinda naturally developing.  We need to be able to find each other and hook up for Saturday dinner.

=========

Food -- we will be bringing groceries in on Saturday afternoon but unless you have checked in with Toymaker and got on the mouth count, we won't have bought the groceries to feed you.   We have an apartment with a kitchen and fridge, so we will likely cook there with a grill set up outside to burn the meat (luck providing).

If Toymaker doesn't understand your being there then you are likely eating Hobson's Choice.   You won't starve, but may be eating boiled spaghetti and can sauce while watching others eat grilled meat.  

Avoid Hobson's Choice if at all possible, please coordinate with Toymaker on the mouth count.

Houston,  we have detected a sub-systems adder on day 7 of the countdown.

ja01 -- alias Jason , class new list member -- asking for directions to the ride and was referenced to Toymaker (bounce PM indicates he thinks he has communicated with you and thinks he is on appropriate counts)

Huston, please verify -- you have a ja01 Jason on your radar screen and are tracking same?   Capcom has no general group designation or arrival location on ja01.

Jason, old son -- are you out there anywhere??   Or are you one of them LOST boys who think "I am" because you are, but we never really wind up finding you ....  please speak up son !!

Kel told me he was bringing 10 lbs of ground beef.

I think that's enough....don't you?

Ground beef -- 10 lbs would make 20 half pound patties which would make close to enough burgers for two apiece.   Add some bags of chips and two 12 packs of hamburger buns and ketchup and tomato and lettuce and mayo and you got an all American cook out for a bunch of biker types.   Throw in a pack of hot dogs and a pack of buns for last minute people expansion and you got it covered.

It also sounds like our grocery shopping list for what we will be bringing.


Will we be group eating for Sunday breakfast?    If so, what?

Don't forget me guys. I'll be at the Gap 6/26, 27, 28. I may swing by Toymakers on the way up. It looks like the Missus is gonna send me solo.  Cool

Houston, we have T minus 6 and counting .....



Jason and Miss,

The rest of the group are meeting at Toymaker's on Friday afternoon/evening, not Saturday.   Saturday morning we will depart Toymaker's in the fairly early AM and hit the road for the Gap.

If you are coming on Friday afternoon/evening, remember to pack a bathing suit because Toymaker has a pool at his house that we will be soaking around in (great for the post ride aches -- not bad for the pre ride fun either)  You are in for a treat -- this is an interesting group to be around and you will have fun riding with us.  

Quick question though, are you and the miss riding separately or are you riding two up?   If you are two upping, tell the Miss that we have a follow truck and if she gets saddle sore we have a normal shotgun car seat she can take a break in on occasion if she wants to.

Dudes, you do realize a Miss takes bump rights on a bed at Toymakers on Friday night if they get there that early, right?   I would rotate to the living room floor with some of the rest of you dudes.

Hey, some gifted young people can pull off a speedo, the rippling abs, tight butt, bulging manhood and all that other young guy stuff sorta require a speedo to show them off properly.   The ladies like it (supposedly).

Now, a speedo on some of the rest of us would plumb get lost in the belt overlap and the butt cheeks, so the rest of us will thankfully wear full sized old fart trunks to spare the remaining eyesight of the group as a whole.


Please check which group we think you are in (below) and correct any errors, please.

Diamond Jim, where again are you and Kel going to be staying Friday night?   Or are you just threatening the ladies with a fictional speedo with no intent to honor your brag?   Ladies don't like to be teased and then not get their speedo, they get all disappointed and testy.

And then we are the ones that have to live with them ....
