2004 Ladies' Valentines Day Spodefest (Reno)

[Strick]

You tell me how many, how much you want to spend, what kind of cuisine, and I can get it handled. Remember my forte' in insurance is restaurants. I HAVE connections.

Doing the buffet style, like at the two restaurants last year, yields a charge per person. The only caveat is we have to tell them how many, so we are obligated to a minimum. Libations were extra.

 

[nikki]

Did someone say Mexican buffet??? Oh man... I can't wait until Reno! :yeehaw:

 

[biglou]

Oh man, I bet I ate 5 of those chili rellenos last time. Mexican for sure!

That sounds like good idea to me. Lets try to plan for a Friday.

Thumbs, Mimi may be up for skiing one day. She raced in high school and beyond, so needless to say she is one heck of a skiier.

The more the merrier and a tour giude to boot, sweet!

The Mexican Buffet was great!!! Strick and Mimi did a great job organizing the whole food thing.

 

[thumbs]

Count Julie and I in for any and all gatherings that involve food.

 

[VintageDirt]

I like food too. I could eat 17 tacos.

 

[KiwiBird]

I'd walk 5 miles for Mexican. Oh wait, I did :think:

 

[thumbs]

:eek:

Mexican food is good, need more hot peppers this time. Lets see beans, peppers and grease Hey Strick how many Port A Potties to you have to place out on the trails.

Strick let us know in advance how much to donate for the Port A Pottie.

LMAO!! Laughing with you, not at you. :confused:

Working on getting our own sub-forum up soon. There will be Port-a-potties again this year and plans are in the works to secure that Mexican place again.
One change this year will be getting the money up front for those who wish to participate in the Mexican buffet.

I've never skied or snowboarded before... that sounds kinda fun. In fact I've never seen more than 2 inches of snow. I might wanna try that out with you sharla. (dont' laugh at me to hard)

It's awesome--so much fun! No one will laugh at you. It's tough for anyone to pick up, so if Tony and Keith try it for the first time too then I will be the one helping you guys out! (that'll be a change :confused: )

 

[E-Ticket]

Please add two more "regulars" to the 2004 hoo-haa.....! :yeehaw:

We'll be driving in from Portland, OR -- hoping to hit early enough on Friday to go for a ride.

RandyB ("E-Ticket) and SusanP ("The Ant") just booked their room at the Peppermill Casino. Motor Lodge, of course, for Fri-Sunday ($49/65/49).

Why the Motor Lodge? 'cause the Ant's BBR 230 fits throught the door quite easily. No more stuck in the elevator for us....! :eek:

Susan's been practicing her starts for Whoop Hill and has also been working on twisting that black, twisty-thing on the right handlebar. Should be interesting. ;)

Oh, and Strick? You da' man...! :worship:

Thanks! - RandyB

I have not ski'd since 1988 :scream: but the last time I tried a winter sport (ice skating) I sure wish I had on all my moto gear.  One of these days I'd like to try to ski again. 

 

[altagirl]

Craig and I are in for skiing too, if he comes along. I'm definitely a go for the whole trip - and last night he said it was a good possibility for him as long as I didn't mind him getting some skiing in while we're there. So adding skiing might make everything work out better for me!

 

[Strick]

I sure hope I can re-ride yesterday's (race) course at Moonrocks to commit it to memory. Can you say waterfalls - probably 25. I did not even know some of these ravines existed. This loop will be expert only. Man was that a tough course - 41 miles and NO resting - anywhere!

 

[phirechick]

Strick,
I noticed on MRANN a bit of complaining from the novice riders, so they are legit. Hope your memory holds up for everyones sake.

 

[Strick]

Phirechick - no you don't! It is NOT, NOT, NOT a novice friendly course and the ladies were hating life. Just to finish one loop on that course left you with a sense of accomplishment. A trophy was just a bonus. Thank God I got the Holeshot, or my day would have REALLY sucked.

 

[High Desert XR400]

Count us in!
Angela and myself are planning to make it to Reno for Valentine's day.
Angela had a great time a the Ladie's Riding School in June and we are looking forward to meeting some more DRN people.

 

[gospeedracer]

Hey High Desert XR400, is Angela a member of DRN or KTMtalk? I was at the Ladies riding school in oregon too but was horrible about remembering names and faces, just curious if Angela has a screen name that I might recognize.

 

[High Desert XR400]

Hi Gospeedracer, Angela doesn't have a screen name at either DRN or KTM talk, she uses mine sometimes.
We both went to down to the riding school and I helped out while she was riding. I did get to do a couple of rides with the guys and had a great time (love those hill climbs). We both hope that Ellen does it again this next year. :thumb:

Kraig

Not sure what the plans are at this point. Don't know if/when/where I'll be employed so I don't have any definite plans as of yet. If do bring the trialer I'm sure there will be room for a couple of you. Might even help keep the trailer from being blown around too much if you and Retsenior are in there....


Brian

 

[Unkle Moose]

Hey Brian George got a new little palace to sleep in.

Good luck on your future employment.

Well, Since I am a local I have to go!!! I was a newbie last year so I am really looking forward to it this time. Strick, if you need help setting anything up let me know, I would be more than happy to help.
My house is on the way to Moonrocks off of Pyramid Hwy. so I would be more than happy to let people store their bikes in my garage at night.
