Okay. For real this time. I've got a new job that's Mon-Fri. I think I can do it this year.

 

[jetmechmarty]

If you want a bed, the time to reserve is now. There's always plenty of real estate for camping. I hope you can make it.

The shirt sale ends 31 August.

 

[jetmechmarty]

If you don't pre-order a shirt, there won't be one at the rally for you.

So my wife decided that we're going to be in Helen that weekend to visit some friends.

Yuck! You'll be close. Send her to Helen while you come ride motorcycles.

 

[john83]

I may! We are taking the bike over there, I stipulated that much. What is the ride schedule like on Sunday? We will be on the way home and I may be able to stop in.

 

[jetmechmarty]

Some may hang at the lodge all day. We had so many bikes last year we had to change our format. Used to be sidestands up at 0930 Sunday. This year, folks will be breaking into their own groups and heading to various destinations. Some may choose not to go anyplace. There is about 90 miles between Helen and the Iron Horse.

Please, come by. I could use an ally here to get more Yamaha cafe racers on board.

Oh no, this is absolutely the worst time of year to be anywhere near Helen. You need to go to the Rally instead!

 

[john83]

Lol. We have some friends who have been inviting us to come with them to Oktoberfest for a few years now. I would love to try and stop in on our way home on Sunday though.

If there is still anyone "On the Fence" the Iron Horse has the following still available as of this afternoon:

One(1) Private Room
One(1) Space Remaining in the bunk house.
Plenty of primitive and electric camp sites.

Personally, the private rooms are exceptional! This is a vacation for the wife and I and we enjoy it a great deal. We've stayed in the "Rocky Top" and "Lone Star" those are Hampton Inn quality hotel rooms!

If you're on the fence... GET OFF THE FENCE.... Get that reservation made!

 

[jetmechmarty]

If you have a reservation at the Iron Horse, they will contact you about meals in a couple of days.
If you have no reservation at the Iron Horse, you will need to contact them about your meals a few days before the rally.

All those XS's and no mention of the XS500!!!! I can not forgive anyone for that blunder!! Just kidding! My goal is to be relocated to this region by this spring and join the fun next year.

 

[jetmechmarty]

I saw someone riding a TX750 at a recent gathering at TWS in Suches, GA.

Please bring the XS500! I'll post the 2018 event here before the first of the year.
