State wide meet and greet in Boone, N.C.

[blacklightning]

Is anyone on here going to the statewide meet and greet in Boone, N.C. from 5/22-5/25? I had totally forgotten about this until I got a reminder notification on facebook. I really had no major plans, and it sounds like a good chance to meet some other spyder riders. Since I have a daughter in Boone at App. State, it should be pretty fun.

I'm not far from Boone. Where will this be at? It is a wonderful area for riding and sight seeing (including the Blue Ridge Parkway). I ride in that area very often.

Here is a copy of the information that is posted on facebook. I have ridden all of these, and they are all great. Number 1 and 3 I did on the spyder last fall and on a M109R, a Kawasaki zzr600, and a Kawasaki zzr1200. I have never ridden the snake on the spyder, and think it will be fun, but I may need to do that when the wife isn't with me. Either way, it sounds like a couple of fun days of riding.
