OTG,

Or you can ride my unmolested K-RS. I'll ride the Ducati. Trailer them both down there. Could pick you up at the airport too.

Choices....choices, eh?

I am in central PA. I can not make HM due to the timing, but you are welcome here for a base. Probably a little closer to NY than Va, depending on where in NY though. I can make it to Front Royal VA from here in about 3.5 hours. Shoot me a PM is interested.

Done, confirmed for 4 nights Wed-Sat. Going to hook up with my Sugar Daddy for the ride down.

Now to work out bike details...and request the vacation. I tend to do things backwards like that. Twisted Evil

So for those I haven't met, I live 10 minutes from Hungry Mother, don't have a K11 and may or may not be on call for work this year. Either way, I can bring firewood. Also, I ditched my road bike in lieu of a little Suzuki DR200 and am starting to explore off-road options in the area so if anybody wants to bring a dual sport I can probably act as tour guide. We also have a few good new restaurants in town. Oh, and j o, I'll be sleeping at my house so reckon I'll pass on the spooning! Shocked

Good morning all…

Hoping that 2015 is being good to everyone ( so far ) !! John said " just ask"…well in prep for the 'maiden' visit of OTG to HMSP-Vlll…I am laying in an extra supply of hearing aid batteries and Percosets !! Then I thought, what would HMSP be like IF both OTG and Johnny-O were there at the same time ?
Would/Could SouthWest VA ever be the same ??

Best regards all… ride safe….// Ernie in NH

I'm still working on a bike for HM. I have the lodging and transport figured out. I'd love to rent a K-GT or similar. My girl is 5'11, and you guys know what a fkn Yeti I am.

Anyplace close to HM that I can rent a bike?

(Plus Id rather not be responsible for a members bike)

Dave,

The Hertz of motorcycle rentals is Eagle Rider. http://www.eaglerider.com/reservation/motorcycles

They do have a location in Falls Church, Va and have a BMW R1200RT - no K bikes.

I looked at the trip from L.I. to Falls Church and then to HM. Drive time would be just over 9 hours.

Just a possibility.

You could try Morton's BMW in Fredericksburg, VA and see if they rent bikes. Sometimes they do.

Try eagle rider. Ive rented beemers from them a few times. Asheville bmw would be the closest i think..a great short ride to HM.

Well, I officially have the time off and so does my girl. So this is happening. Rented the cabin at HM as well, that's done.

Looks like I'll be there. Very Happy

John will be meeting us in NY and we will be driving down with him on Wed, the 29th and back (I believe) on Monday the 4th.
Still need to get a bike. I'm 6'3" 290, and Carolyn is 5'11 150 so I'm thinking a full tourer or similar. I'd love to get a GT like John had with his CA trip or maybe an RT or similar. Shit, I'll ride a Harley bagger if need be.

So yeah, when I say I'm going in '15, it means I'm going.

Unf Unf.

Great.

But how about back north on Sunday?

Most folks bug out on Sunday morning, so nothing going on there after then.

I need to be back in my office on Monday morning. Crying or Very sad

Where are we getting you a bike?

You are still welcome to ride my RS if your back will allow. Corbin dual tour seat with a backrest.
