This all sounds sweet. I had better be back on 2 wheels by then!
It's less than 400 for me. If I can, I'll be there.

Of course, I was just throwing it out there just to see if anyone even thought it would be a good idea.

And burnsville is very close to where I actually live.

We need to hook up for a couple of rides!

Hell yea! Now we have a top shelf excuse. We gotta scout some killer rides for when these outta towners get here this fall so they won't be disappointed!

Re:WNC Meet and Greet 1 Year ago  
All, I will be helping Grinder put together the meet n greet...

Some of my ideas include making this a five day event...

We have lots of riding here in the Smoky Mountains, and some great sites to see... Some of the places I would like to do organized rides to include the Wheels through Time Museum....just an awesome motorcycle museum in maggie valley NC, and we can't forget about doing a ride to the Casino in Cherokee, plus Dragon Day, Garage Day, and then we have to do the hidden secret rides, thats right...the roads from heaven that 99% of the people would never know about.

We need a date for this event nailed down...

I would propose 5-7 Oct 2012 as the meet n greet weekend. I would also propose that we have planned events for the entire week. 1-5 October. We will have a designated hotel and mc campground arranged as well.

I will be taking vacation and be there for the entire event.

Need a quick answer from folks that want to come.

Please give us a post... example: I'm in.... camp or hotel and how long you want to stay.

Responses will generate our planned agenda... But what I will promise, you will make friends, enjoy yourself and see some gorgous scenery...

So who's in?

Re:WNC Meet and Greet 1 Year ago  
I'm in, love to do the whole week, but I highly doubt that. see better once it gets here. Live in Asheville, so ill just be commuting
I'd suggest some parkway rides too. Absolutely beautiful up there. Does get a little cool up there tho.
Any reason we're waiting til October? Pretty late in the year isn't it? go ahead and call me a Puss, but it gets kinda cold everywhere that time of year lol
