spiritdream · May 20, 2012

NE TrikeTalk.com/TOI Rally:
August 24 (Friday night) - August 26 (Sunday), 2012

Host Motel:
Super 8 Motel
358 Main St
Sturbridge, MA 01566,
Ph 508-347-9000

Dates Corrected August 25 (and 26th?) - My personal hope is for a group ride one day, and a cookout/social gathering the other day - thoughts???

First, I'd like to get a "rough" head count, so we can decide where we're holding our gathering this year.

Please let us know:

1) How many in your group
2) Attending 1 day or 2 days
3) Accomodation preference - hotel/motel or camping (sorry, we aren't large enough or organized enough to arrange discounts - YET!

)

wife and I for both days

Hi Cheri,<br />
<br />
Hope to hear more about your New England rally when I see you in Maggie Valley....you may get quite a few intrested in going.......see you soon. That would be a nice trip from Maryland.........

Bikerbozo · May 21, 2012

Me & Mrs. Bozo are probably a go for 2 days. While I like camping, I don't think I will talk her into it. So hotel is best option (need fridge for her meds anyways).

Bruce · May 21, 2012

Deb and I will do at least 2 days ( hotel / mote will workl )

leo3wheel · May 21, 2012

Jeannette and I would like to go both days. Had my fractured right shoulder repaired 1.5 weeks ago. Hope to be in good shape in 3 months. If not, we can go in our cage. We will stay in a motel. Thanks!

ROAD DOG · May 23, 2012

Will definitely consider going. Made lots of plans for the summer and money is always tight but maybe we can squeeze it in. If so, there would be 2 of us.

John Luciano · May 23, 2012

Honey and I of course. If I take the trailer we could stay over night.
Ok how about we make a list. Hard to count otherwise.
I think I started one back a few post.
copy the list , paste it to your post and add names and sizes
If there is not a huge response and I can get them for cheap enough ( also need logo permission ) I may be able to cover it.
Looking into raffle prizes like the last 2 rally's and 1 or maybe 2 trophies.

Honey and John 1 small 1 med.

Where is it held at?

kerr88 · May 23, 2012

I'd be into it...Post the details?

spiritdream · May 24, 2012

Seatec and Kerr - more details will be posted within the next couple of weeks as details are firmed up. Right now, we're trying to get a rough idea of how many to expect, so we can determine the best place to start.

At the moment, the plan is for August 24 & 25, "based" in the Palmer/Belchertown area of Mass. (a little west of Sturbridge); we're hoping for a short ride and cookout/socializing one day, with hopefully a longer ride the other day, the order yet to be determined.

Rosy · May 24, 2012

Love to be there on Friday, but wife still working and vacation time is very tight, BUT, we will be there late Friday night and stay through Sunday. I hope this helps in the planning stages for the rally.
Will you be posting Motel/Hotel info later on when closer to date?
Thanks for the info.

Regards,

Bikerbozo,
Have you heard from Cheri about the actual dates? Is it Friday-Saturday-Sunday or Saturday-Sunday?
If it is Saturday-Sunday, I wouldn't need to make reservations on Friday night late arrival. Well depends on what time the rally takes place, because it will take us a few hours to get there from NH.
Thanks for the heads up.

Yes, thank you - Sat & Sun is what I meant.

Looking more & more like we're going to be based out of Belchertown, MA area. Road Dog might be able to give more info on hotels/motels in the area, and I'll dig online this weekend to see what's nearby for accomodations.

Cheri,
Do you think we have enough people for a block of rooms at a motel/hotel?
I would think they may give you a break on room rates if we have the people who want to stay in a motel/hotel.
That would be nice to get everybody together and swap stories.
Food for thought.

Rosy, great idea but I'm afraid I don't know the area well enough to even recommend hotels/motels. I know the 3 major ones in Sturbridge, and there's one I pass on Rt 20 in Palmer all the time (I'm about 1/2 way between Sturbridge & Palmer), but my location is about half an hour from Belchertown.
