I suppose you think that would entitle you to an open curtain view to the honeymoon that night as well??? :biglaugh:

What? Tell me you weren't going to forego a great Vmax rally in favor of a Suzuki rally?:ummm:

Reading this thread, I sure do wish Shala & I could make it two years in a row. It was a blast meeting everyone last year. Maybe we can attend again in 2015. Besides, at the rate this winter is going, I wouldn't be surprised if there was snow still on the ground there in June. :bang head:

 

[marsmax85]

^ Hahaa you must have read the fine print ......

 

[HyperPete]

YIKES! According to the Facebook page:

Rally Lodging Still Available! Please CALL the property. It appears they are sold out online but limited rooms, camping, cabins, and B&Bs are still available in the Johnstown area.

I may just make it a day trip. It's less than 3 hours away according to Google Maps.

Hyperpete you need to call hotel they blocked off an area for us vmaxxers .. Mention you're with the vmoa vmax club... And if they are filled I'm sure Mike Moore ( vmax2extremes) would be willing to share his cot ....:rofl_200:

 

[The Beekeeper]

Just booked our room today, should still be some available................Tom.

 

[HyperPete]

Cool - is it the Days Inn? Maybe I'll come out Friday after work and leave Sunday if there is a room available.
Are there any "better halves" that attend the meet? My gal would like to go but she says that the seat (early Corbin) is darned uncomfortable so she won't be riding with me. Maybe there are some other wives/girlfriends who do something while the guys are out riding?

[Redbone]

Yes HyperPete there are numerous wives and girlfriends that regularly attend, I'm sure your significant other would feel comfortable with our group. It is the Days Inn at 601 and I-70 in Somerset.
I'll put a plug in for Sean Morley's work on Corbin seats, while I don't have a Corbin, I've sat on one redone by Sean and it was way softer than the stock Corbin I sat on. It might pay you to call him and see what he could do for you.
