Spring 2015 - Romney, West Virginia - May 1-3

[snakebitten]

I'm looking for some bait. Pictures. Something to torture Combo and "Fred" with. (Fred is a sneaky little Lurker here. He doesn't post. He's a piece of work, I tell ya)
Anyways, I'm relentlessly, and with no compassion, egging those 2 fine gents to come to Romney, with their gals, and recklessly burn their precious vacation time and discretionary income on this Tenere Festival.

Yes Combo, I called it a FESTIVAL!
It's gonna be Festive.
Fred, you hear that? You got a brand new gorgeous Tenere. This is where you break it in. >

Does Romney's offer a demo ride on the ST?

Let's see what I can do here...

Mark B always does a nice ride report. http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?p=24111585#post24111585


Some photos

How about the video from last year?

Romney Cycles 2014 Camp & Ride on Vimeo

How's that for bait? Got a lot more where that came from.

My guess is no. But I did send a note to Larry (GM) to see if they will have one for demo during the event. Yamaha has provided them a demo bike in the past, so it's possible. I'll post here if they surprise me.

Knew I could count on you DD.

Hey my Santa Fe (Texas, that is) brother............how do you resist? O
Zoom in on those. Each one. Soak em in.
That Big Dirt bike of yours, you know....the one with the BIG BLOCKS.........it begs to go.

I heard back from Romney. They are trying to get a demo Tenere. So the best I can tell you is maybe...don't hold your breath, but maybe.

New shoes that will get spooned on in time for Romney....

 

[True Grip]

I got a new Mitas e07 for the rear and a TKC 80 on the front that's still good. And nine good fingers (inside joke) ::025::

Hmmmm. So, are YOU in on the "inside joke" Patrick? 8)

I had a front row seat

When GuzziTodd told me he was coming, I tried to switch my Koolwink single room to a double but none were available, so Todd reserved a second single.

Yesterday I was notified someone cancelled out of a double so Todd & I gave up our 2 single rooms for a double.

So if anyone was looking for a Koolwink Motel single there might be an availability now.

 

[snakebitten]

Snagged!!!!

Thank you very much MojoToot!!!!!

Now I have the option of hauling the TearDrop.....OR riding the Beast from Texas.
Currently in the mood to RIDE.

The TearDrop will still be the choice if I extend this trip into one of those long-term-roadies.
(company has locations all over the country-world. I can disguise my play-time as traveling site to site, if schedule permits)

I was hoping to get to this event this year but I have a memorial gathering in Florida for a fellow rider the same weekend. You guys be safe and take lots of pictures.

Thanks, and have a safe ride to your event as well.

As far as pictures or video...the professional video guy that was there last year says he's coming back with two cameras this year. Look forward to seeing what he does for 2015.

3 weeks from tomorrow. ::015::

 

[Checkswrecks]

The early birds will probably arrive Thursday, April 30 and since some shirts need to be mailed, the
LAST DAY FOR SHIRT ORDERS IS MONDAY APRIL 20.
(slightly over 2 weeks from now)
FRONT:

BACK:

$13 for short sleeve . $16 for long sleeve
. Add $6 for postage in the US or $10 for Canada, so that you can arrive in style, or pick them up in Romney for free.
Extra money goes to the West Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind, located in Romney and rounding payments up just helps what we contribute out of this.
.pm me for my email and to tell me the size(s) you want. DON'T FORGET TO TELL ME (1) LONG SLEEVE OR SHORT, (2) SIZE, (3) ADDRESS IF THE SHIRT IS TO BE MAILED, AND YOUR REAL NAME TO TIE TO THE AVATAR NAME.
.
We are collecting via PayPal, using my email address. When I see the size(s) you want in your email and the money is received, I'll send you a confirmation email.
.
Legalese - I'll get the shirts into the mail but have no control about what happens between you and your mailman.
