Spring Weekender / Overnighter

[tjfischer]

I have been talking with my fellow riders here in Southern California about doing a Spring Weekend Overnighter. As it turns out, I have gotten a very positive response. I suggested we do something a little different and ride a little farther. This is what we have come up with.

When: April 29th – May 2nd (Thursday through Sunday)
Where: Carson Valley (City) Nevada

A member of one of the other forums, a local of the area, has offered to help me out with the planning and details. I must say he is an excellent communicator. I am looking forward to meeting him in person.

Right now, this is not being planned, as any kind of rally. It is just being planned as a bunch of good people, getting together to have a good time.

Let me just say this about the Carson Valley. It is a very, unique area with lots of History, Lots to see and do. We have already come up with a couple of rides, and we are working on more.

This would be a great opportunity for “NEW RT OWNERS” to test out their Spyders on an actual tour weekend.

There is a Spyder dealer in the Area, So parts and service should not be a problem. However, I have not contacted the dealer yet.

Anyway. I thought I would throw this out there to see if anyone else would be interested in attending.

With more people in attendance, we may be able to get Group Discounts at one of the local hotels.

I will post on the BRP site once we get more of the details worked out.

Thanks
