Saw this on the BMWMOA forums and thought it might be of interest to folks who don't belong to that group:

Klassic K campout

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Announcing a new BMW event to honor Klassic K bikes.

From 1985 K bikes have been a reliable mainstay of the BMW motorcycle experience. There are examples with hundreds of thousands of miles on them. The oldest K bikes are almost antiques and the newest are over 10 years old. To date no event has been held to honor these trustworthy steeds. That will change on the last weekend of July 2008.

The first annual Klassic K campout will be held July 25-27 2008 at the Blue Ridge Motorcycle campground, http://www.blueridgemotorcyclecamp.com/ N 35o 24.235 W 82o 48.682, in Cruso, NC. The campground is located 6 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway and 20 Miles off I 40.

Of course all motorcyclists are welcome. Cabin space is limited / tent space is plentiful. There is no charge other than camping, food and supplies. Contact BRMCCG for cabin reservations. 828-235-8350

This event was started by the KBMW Yahoo group, http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/kbmw/ which provides technical assistance for Klassic K owners. We do have a couple of permanent names, for the event, in mind and will probably choose one that weekend.

I clicked on the yahoo link - here's the result: "Document Not Found Sorry, the document you requested is not available. Please click here to visit the Yahoo! Groups home page."

Isn't this event in the past? Over and done with? Or are they repeating Biltmore already? "Y'all come and see us @ the RA @ Biltmore"

The Yahoo link came up for me--you might e-mail the guy.

Jim, look at the link line very carefully.
There is a comma at the end after the slash, remove the comma and the link will work. Thats what I did and it came up for me.

link fixed. Thank you, Scott.

That doesn't change the fact that the Biltmore RA was in 2007.

Checked other posts on BMWOA board: the "Biltmore" line is part of the poster's usual signature block.

The Yahoo K group never impressed me.

Bunch of arrogant blokes with driveshafts up their arse.

Never been to the Yahoo Forum, the name says all i need t know about it.

But It would be fun to see a bunch of K bike all together. And a good reason to go ride West NC.....215 rocks for anyone who hasnt ben on it...

I might try to go friday night and leave saturday after looking, not really into rallies....to much doing nothing.......
