Author Message   Macbuell Posted on Sunday, March 27, 2005 - 09:27 pm:        My brother and I are going to go to Barber next month for the AMA races, hoping to see a few Buells in FX. Can anyone recommend some hotels or motels near Barber? I certainly don't need anything fancy. Also, does anyone have any ideas as far as theft prevention at the hotel or motel. I was thinking of just wheeling the bikes in the room.   Crosmyn Posted on Sunday, March 27, 2005 - 09:37 pm:        First place I would check asap is 29 Dreams (www.29dreams.com). Even if you can't get a cabin there its close to the track and a fun place to visit. Beyond that there are plenty of the usual chain motels and I can't speak for what rules they would have on placement of the bikes. There are several motels along highway 280 in the Inverness area of town from which it would be a straightforward ride to the track. If nothing else its always a good idea to chain two bikes together for safety.   Noface Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 09:27 am:        I plan to have my Buell there, but I won't be riding in the FX race. DOH! I'm too slow. Track days ar Barber are fun. Anyway, there's several hotels in the area. I'm sure most close to the track are already booked. One exit east of Barber has several chain hotels. You'll probably do better if you stay in town. It's only about 15 miles.   Sting56 Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 10:35 am:        Guesthouse is right out side of the gate, the prices were reasonable, I booked there for my CCS/FUSA races last August. When I cancelled ahead of time they charged me for a night anyway. They have nice areas to camp at the track, I went that route.   Ebear Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 05:44 pm:        hey,Mark....Me and Tbear will be there from Cali and Colo....Lets hookup Friday Night...E-mail me.   Macbuell Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 07:05 pm:        ebear, I won't riding in from Atlanta until Saturday morning but would love to hook up with that afternoon and of course after the races Saturday night.   Ebear Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2005 - 10:12 am:        Crosmyn,Noface...or?....Do you know of any cheap places around or the names of the hotels that are east of the track?I tried the 29dreams...of course they are heavily booked but want to check out anyways,sounds like a GREAT place to stay next year!!If we stay in town and dont have to drive back to Jasper(my Dad's place) I can party hardy Sat.
