Trip ideas for June?

[NC Steve]

A Moto Guzzi rally? Here's the list http://www.mgnoc.com/rally_calendar.html

I've been to several and all brands are always welcome, with many folks owning several differing Eurobikes.

The VA Rally is always a good one, late June, and up near mile marker 20 of the Parkway.

Any chance you'd be able to come to the W.Va cass/Boyer Station Mountaineering BMW rally on Memorial weekend, Steve??

Trolle made such a good comment to Rob about his mainframe computer expertise being a dinosaur. Things don't disappear they just change..like energy! In a way it makes it easier to get a handle on dying....nothing stays the same and, in time, we as humans configured in the way we are now won't exist, so we wouldn't fit in anyway if we did live 'forever'! Sorta like it's easier to leave a party when we aren't having a good time. :-?

Come to the South Sue and we will meet you!!!!!  If'n you need a place to stay, Atlantawise, let me know.

Aïda and Graham, Stew (who you met in NC) and I are figuring on going to the Mountaineer Rally in Boyer W.Va on the Memorial weekend and would hope that you two could come. Anyone else too!!!! Please join us. I have a friend to visit over in Madison, Va at a KOA there where he decided to take a summer job just for fun. While being so close to the Appalachian Trail, he plans to get in some hiking as a test run to see if he would like to hike the whole Trail in the future. He's got some good light and small equipment now so that gear will serve for his motorcycling ventures as well.

Barber Museum is in the works too but that is a long time off.

Yea, I'm a little (lot) slow these days.  I have to admit that ~Facebook~ has captured me...  When I read this forum now, I keep wanting to hit 'Like' on posts....I think I need to get a life...

Anywho...Graham and I need to schedule some trips this year.  I'll put the bug in his ear and see what we can work out for Memorial weekend.  We haven't been to this rally in years, but every year we talk about heading back that way.

Looks like I may not be making the National after all.    MotoMark1 ended up with a scheduling conflict, so I won't need to be there to run the booth.  We're not really excited about the big crowds, so I'm not sure we'll head there on our own.

Sure be nice if you decide to come to the Cass Mountaineering rally. The National can be a bit stifling in the crowds but I figure there are ways to retreat when you're talked and walked-out! Quiet time reading by the tent and catching a few extra ZZZZZ's if the tent isn't too hot. I generally like it all.. vendors, beer tent, seminars, demos and getting to visit with old friends and making new ones. It exhausts me!
I even like my oil change volunteer venue.
I wonder if Not-So-Fast Ed, NC Steve, John J, Altritter, Semper, R65 Neal and a few others I am sure I've met but missing could consider this Cass Rally too. Trouble is is it is held on a family big weekend holiday!

Hey Sue, we met in 08 at the Gathering.  In Sept. of 08 my brother and I had a great ride in and around the Smokeys.  I posted a ride report "09/25/08 General Category / Ride Report and Event Reviews / The Smokey Mountains. If you have half as much fun as we did you will have had as much fun as I had.

Sue -

Cass is in our plans!  We'll probably head up to Willville, spend the night, then on to Cass for the weekend.  We'll hit Willville on the way back as well.

Now I'll go and see ya there! Willville is a possibility before I turn home but plan to ride around the area after hooking up with my MI. friend who works at the Madison KOA, Va. I doubt he can be at Cass on the long weekend given it'll be busy on memorial day holiday but after Cass I'll meet him at the KOA or else make plans to meet him at Willville! Two birds with one stone!! Let's hope the weather calms down!!!! Yikes!!!
