I would suggest the group picture at TWO... They are kind enough to host the event and it does have a decidedly motorcycle appearence... Besides, I am biased as I am camping at TWO... LOL |

Thanks Ft_b and Etennuly - I'm sure I'll find my way to the photo shoot on the back of someone's Buell! Good thing Carlos isn't the jealous type! |

I remember Steve! Hope he did get his Uly, after riding yours, he didn't seem to excited about his Beemer anymore. Buellerandy, Like Thumper said, if you want to head over to the Columbus area Wednesday and spend the night somewhere, meet up with us Thursday morning, and we'd love to have you join us on the ride down. Wow, was that a run on sentance or what! |

It is in Suches Georgia. TWO is Two Wheels Only campground there. The Dragon is 1.5-2 hours away. |

Steve has NOT gotten the Uly yet, he is still on the beemer... Probably has a lot to do with his job not giving any real pay raises in th last 13 or so years (which is why I left)!!!! It would appear that I am a NO GO for any pre-badness trips as my fundage has shrunken to to unforseen circumstances.... Should I get the leave approved, MBV is still a GO!! (work sure does get in the way of time off!!!!) LOL |

Hey guys, I've got a couple of questions about this event. Is there a site about this event with details? food, lodging, etc. I have some friends that have other bikes like, KTM, BMW, Aprilia. Will these guys be welcome or do I need to tell them that this event is only for the best of the best and they need to get a real bike if they want to come? lol, jus kiddn' |

Everybody is welcome as there are real bikes there to test ride. If this thread isn't enough information for you, look in the archives for MBIV. Look back a few threads for maps and Google info. |

"I have some friends that have other bikes like, KTM, BMW, Aprilia. Will these guys be welcome..." Absolutely positively. MB is more of a mountain moto-festival than a Buell chest thumping circle (there's that too, though, for those so inclined). The other bikes that show up are part of the show, man. Most of the exhaust noise is gonna be real familiar, though! I don't even bother with the demo rides anymore. |

"I have some friends that have other bikes like, KTM, BMW, Aprilia. Will these guys be welcome..." isn't it our job to turn them over to the dark side though. |

My KTM buddy is going with me to pick mine up tomorrow. He said that I'm making him want one and I haven't even got mine yet. |

I think the best thing I saw at MB IV was the group of 20 or so chrome barges that rolled up, stopped in the middle of the road, looked us over, turned up their nose at the lack of assless pants, and kept on rollin'. There are always different makes and models. If only existing Buell owners show up to test ride Buells, what good are the test rides. I would preferential treatment be shown to non-Buell owners in scheduling rides. If they have to wait 5 hours to get a ride, the probably won't. |
