Barber Small Bore June 2020

[Tim]

Some of us have been talking about hitting the Small Bore event early June 2020 at Barber - looks like a blast. Smaller event, loads of things to actually do on a bike (racing...) and what more fun is there than blasting around like hooligans on sub-200cc contraptions?

Details will continue to flow, but you can google the event and see what it's all about.

This sounds fun, I get an extra weeks vacation in 2020 in July so I may be able to swing this.

I didn't attend last year. There was some controversy about moving the event to Barber. This resulted in hard feelings between some people who had previously been good friends. Since I knew and respected people on both sides, I chose to stay home. I had attended earlier years when it was less mainstream and had a blast.

Always a challenge when a community-based event goes mainstream and gets more attention. Still looks like folks are having a blast - if there are other more local, off the beaten path events going on it would be great to hear about them.

I'm renting an apartment in South Carolina for a year or so for work and have my BMW F800ST down here (going for a ride in a minute) and the 1970 MTD Trail Flight I bought close by to prep for the Small Bore.

Would love to attend more local events in the south east.

I would like to attend. Depends on my "supervisor's" schedule. Here's another one that is super fun. http://www.champsclock.com/50cc.htm

Barb and rode the True Grits 50cc run several years back on borrowed 50cc clone scooters. On that ride a couple of Aprilla 50cc bikes showed up.
