Mike... you'd be a bad MoFo if you actually put it on the road tonight! With the rain and ice and all. |

Mel, How much are we looking at here? The wife and kids will probably be gone, and I wouldn't mind if it isn't gone to break me. You got the trailor? Dave |

Hey Dave.... I don't have a clue how much it's going to cost. The only real charge I can see is fuel for down and back. Since I'm only looking for a place to catch some sleep, I'm not looking to stay at the Hilton on the way back either. Motel 8 will do just fine. I guess all of this can be divided by the number of people riding down. That only leaves food... and I think thats a personal expense. I'm working on the trailer. I will have one of my own by then if all goes well. If not I can borrow one from my dad easy. |

Of course you know we'd be only 15 minutes away from "Blast Squad" territory! |

Sounds good to me, so it is about an 11 hour drive? or was I looking at the wrong thing. |

I'll run it by HOUSEHOLD-6 and see what happens. That's close to when the baby is due. What's the story on those decals? P.S. my paint is done so I'm down to ride when the rain lets up.

I like the low buck approach but how many towing vehicles and trailers are we going to need. I might have access to a three bike trailer and a crew cab tow vehicle. |

Well... Dave...by my calculations... 9 1/2 hrs. Kev... The Decal Guy is getting a new machine that will do 2 color. I told him to let me know when he does. but here is the link to his ebay store: http://stores.ebay.com/The-Store-with-the-Cool-Stu ff_W0QQ_trksidZp1638.m118.l1247 It's sponsored by SMHD, but it's actually at the camp ground in Suches. (from my understanding) Mike... Depends. The trailer I'm working on is at least a 4 bike trailer. Especially ours! I can tow that much with either of my vehicles, but my van has more room and creature comforts. (I'd just need to get wifey to relinquish the keys for the weekend)other wise 4 grown men would be a little cramped in my Jeep! |

Good to go. Just let me know where/when we will be meeting up. This is going to be nice. I like the out of town trips by the wife. Dave |

Hey guys - below is the web site for T.W.O. where MBV will be held. A couple of us from C3 are heading out Thursday, the rest will be heading out Friday. If you will, post on roll-call with names and cell numbers. We're still trying to get a headcount for Stone Mountain. You can print the spreadsheet down before you leave and have numbers should you have a problem on the road. Have you secured a cabin or plan on camping at T.W.O.? Looking forward to meeting you guys! http://www.twowheelsonly.com/ |

Thanks Kristi! It looks like we are going to leave after midnight on Friday and then get on the road home Saturday night so we won't actually be staying at TWO. But YEAH, we'll drive over 1000 miles to ride a few hundred miles with over 100 other Buellers! Sounds like fun! |

You guys are NUTS! You'll have to plan for Buelltoberfest. Same place, no demos, no schedules, less bikes, but still lots of fun! We had about 40 BadWebbers at our first Buelltoberfest. Went so well, we've already got II on the schedule. |

Okay, I will just need directions, or I can get up with Mike and follow him out. But is that the little airport that is on the right hand side as you get onto 58 from 64/664. If so, I know where that place is. Just let me know. Dave |

Hey, What time are we looking at being back. Looks like I may have to be on a flight to San Diego by 5pm on Sunday. I am still going to GA, just need to know what kind of time I am messing with. Dave |

Do I need any special equipment for the trip? (ie, over the ankle boots) |

Dave, I hope to be back by 1 pm maybe 2 if we get some breakfast before getting on the road. I think it's going to be like any other ride that we take so all you should need is the stuff you normally wear. (IMO) I don't think there is any regulations for this gathering. I might try to get me a new jacket before then, but that's just a personal thing. |

Hey Kevin Were you on J. Clyde Morris(17) yesterday around 1:00? I was dropping the Duc off for service at Redline and some guy with a black helmet and jacket rode by on a black XB Lightning (Message edited by S1wmike on March 02, 2008) |

S1wmike, that was probably me (Goody) on the black (Kick Ash) XB Saturday. I live near Redline and was referred to this website from Sport Twin. I talk to Dave and Scott at Redline all the time. I bought my XB9SX last June and have added the D&D, Powercommander ECM and K&N intake to her. Love the sound and grunt. I would love to ride with all of you local Buell riders. I live right off of 17 in Yorktown soooooooo, lets ride sometime. Goody |

Hey folks, I know Im new to the site but have ya ever thought of getting together at Hoss's Deli just off of 64? They have an awesome deal on Wednesday evenings (called Hooker night, referring to seafood). There are always bikes out back and paaaahlenty of Harleys, customs and a few metric bikes. I have only seen one or two Buellys in there, usually Duc or Jr. I'm going to ride down to Southside later this afternoon. Hope to hear from ya'll soon. Goody |

Hey Goody... I think I met you at the gas station on 134 possibly. I've got the Cherry Bomb XB12. If so...glad you made it! Kev, that sucks dude... but it may be for the greater good as I now know that my trailer will do 3 bikes surely, a 4th would have been pushing it. |
