Geez, I go to Yosemite for 3 days and this thread has grown to gargantuan proportions! Now I'm worried I haven't made any reservations yet! I'm calling the Peppermill TONIGHT!!! I'm gonna get one of those spa suites too!!
Okay, so who has not posted that they're going???

Rooster13, can't be too bad of a drive for you, I'll be expecting you! Motometal, you just gotta go too!! KLRay you're bringing Motololo, right??? XRPredator...what's up?? You cannot miss DW AND the Reno Ride too, its forbidden. Velosapiens, just show up already!! Its gonna be fun!

Why haven't we heard from more of the Ladies?? Racergirl76, you and Cal are so close, make it a plan? Bell, Woodschick, Motochick, Sparky, Larissa, Erin and Stu....what's it gonna take?

KARNA&JUSTIN - There's NO WAY I'M LETTING YOU OFF THE HOOK HERE!! YOU have official notice and 4 months to plan!!

Missouri Men: CRSwade, Agent Orange, Thunder33, BlueThunder and the rest, just think of it as a very worthy INVESTMENT. You're going to Reno, by GAWD!! Those casinos are going to make you RICH!! And you're going to have fun riding as an extra perk! ;)

Zio, what's all this hedging....you know you're going. You live fairly close, if it comes to spending lavishly on her on THE DAY, do it, then get your butt up to Reno.

Elk, have we not heard from you?? No, this cannot be. :|

RMJeff is going!! :yeehaw:

Vintage Dirt - if you come to Reno, I will make you all the Captain Morgan's cocktails you want, I promise!

Yo Natalie, Speedracer, and of course, the inimitable "Mastuh Stick, suh!"

As IF we weren't coming..... sheesh! Not a snowball's chance in Push, Nevada would we be missing this one. The Ant may have the new CR320F stuffed in her BBR by then -- and will be looking to pick fights on the "drag hill." Wheeee-e-e-e-e-e-eeeeeeeeeeeeee......

Hell, this is going to be just like going home for Christmas --- "hey, look! All my friends are here!!" (really BIG grin)

I just booked us at the PepperMill Motor Lodge. (Did you know that a BBR will fit through the front door? .... (grin) ..... but the Katoom couldn't make the corner... (bummer, eh)) But wait, there's Mastuh Strick's friend Rick!

We'll be at the PepperMill from Thursday through Sunday -- drive back to Portland, OR on MOnday.

So The Ant (Susan P, '00 BBR-200) and E-Ticket (RandyB, '02 KTM 400 MXC) will be there.

If I didn't mention it before - wheeeEEEEEEEEEE-E-E-E-E-EEEEEE!!

Shoot. Elsinore Grand Prix in November and Moon Rocks in February.
Is this a great country or WHAT!

Cheers! - E-Ticket

If that means shorts, alpinestars and a hawaiian shirt is out, I may not be able to make it.

Hey GSR I think this Reno thing is really growing from year to year. Any chance of us getting our own forum. Maybe you can throw your clout around a little and hook us up..... Its gonna get ugly for people to sort through 30 or 40 pages of stuff to get all the info. I think it would be nice to have a forum with different threads with hotel info, dates, times, directions, activities and such.......

Or we can go for the longest thread record again.......:)

The 'idea' just killed the posts. A sub forum to the sub forum to the......

Maybe to link for info., but the average browser on the board is not going to find out about this. I'm in disagreement.

DRN Dirtweek is/was plastered all over the sight with banner, links, etc. VD spodefest isn't.

I totally agree, Strick... Moonrocks, aka, Valentine Reno Ride, is in 4.. no, 15 different spots! Okay, so maybe I'm exagerating just a bit. But it's real hard and not intuitive at this point to have a sub-forum of a regional chapter ... <blah-blah> ... when we have riders coming from "e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e".

My vote is to keep in the Organized Rides forums - treat it like a ride the level of DRN events - which it's on it's way to becoming. If only because of number of people and the fun level.

I also think the spurious threads in the Women's Forum are totally fine.... that's their medium to swap tips, convince each other to go, etc., etc.

I'll probably cruise the Organized ride forum for generic info on who's going, arrangements, etc. and the Women's Forum to for fun and to help nudge the fence-sitters.

By the way, has this ever really had an official name? Is it now the "Third Annual Moonrocks Ride" or the "Valentine's Ride?"

I vote for Moonrocks... it really sticks in your head and when other's hear about it ... they can't help but be curious!

I don't know about "official" name, but it originally came to be because of the ladies, namely Firecracker, (wish I had saved the original e-mail) and was thus deemed the "Ladies Valentine's Ride". While we may be out numbered every year by the men, it is the only organized ride that I have ever participated in that has such a strong showing of women. I for one would like to see the spirit of the event stay true to it's original intent, and that is for dirtbikin' girls to get together and say, "to hell with Valentine's Day, let's ride!" :) So don't be trying to re-name our gig there E-ticket! :p

No, i's cool...... I just wanted to know what to call it!

So, I will now, *ofishyually,* refer to it as the "Ladie's Valentine's Ride" from here on out in all my posts and references.

"Ahem.... Boy, I am really looking forward to doing the Ladie's Valentine's Ride" with Susan and all the other cool, dirt-bikin' chicks!"

How'd I do? (grin) - E-Ticket

The Official name year one was 'Ladies Valentine's Day Spodefest'(I think).
Since it is drawing more men than ladies, Maybe Moorocks Valentine's Spodefest? I would like it to be called the 3rd annual SOMETHING??

If there are more men there than women, how is that a problem to call it the "Ladies' Valentines' Day Ride?" That just means there is more for us to look at. ;)
