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.

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

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.

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: )

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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:

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....

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.
