John, just my 2 cents...It would be best if you post where your event is being held, city, the host hotel, approx rates you've been quoted, proposed start and end dates, area camp grounds, etc when you start a new gathering thread. You can always add changes, or updates in the thread as they occur, but at least give a projected date, place, length of gathering, etc, so those who may be interested can express their interest and start planning.

If you want to edit it past the edit time cutoff, message me with what you want to add or change and I will be glad to edit it for you. Thanks for your leadership on organizing these events for all the past many, many years, it is appreciated by all!

The post you are refereeing to is This years rally. We had it 8/20/20. We posted many times on our NE region section( check 2020 NE region rally info ) . We posted rates and we posted location. This post is a pre notification of the Next NE region rally.

We will post all that you mention in a future post. Thanks for the kind words. We had 14 Trike Talk members attend this year. A great turn out considering Covid19. We had 8 cancel last min. It was hard organizing with out 2 way communication on the sight.

I second what John mentioned about being able to communicate, to take that away was not a good decision. Talking to the members that did attend, most said if it was $10.00 or $20.00 a year, most would gladly sign up but not everyone can afford the $100.00, besides the fact that some of these trikes are in the mega-price category. Both John's and mine are based on 1997 Goldwings, one member has a old Harley trike that spends most of it's time in the shop and has over 150,000 miles on it and there are others with low buck rigs.

A few of the riders that did come to the rally are not members of TT and were turned off on the charge and will probably never sign up on TT because of that. A charge for letting someone sell parts or bikes on the site is acceptable but then if a non-paid member can't buy then it hurts both parties.

We will continue to support TT and our rallies have always been billed as TT rallies but it would be better to allow PM's through the site so we can coordinate events through here instead of Facebook.

I agree with Doug. At the fire pit this was brought up a few times. even if we have restrictions ( can’t PM to sell but can to buy or maybe charge for a fir sale post.

I have been a member since almost and maybe the start. I guess a CHARTER MEMBER. #162 with over 5,000 posts

I was one of the most active members TOI Captain

[Burnerboy]

I agree with John and Doug, here: 99% of my information comes from this TT.com board... I was never on Facebook, (but thanks to Doug for setting up my phone) I am now maybe a one percent'r using the facebook as getting my info.............I would have never, known about the trike rallies if it wasn't for TT.

I totally enjoy reading the posts, on TT (especially the ones that concern me ..THE GWing 1800's).....and of course the HD's just in case a friend may need help help!

Love you all, and hope all is well, with family and friends!

Can you not use the "chat box" at the very top of home page ?? Click on the little box on the right to open it up. Just a thought. Hardly anyone uses it.

Did the hotel require out of state people to sign any sort of waiver? I had to cancel my July trip to Stowe because Vermont required you state you've quarantined for 14 days or get a negative virus test within 72 hours of going there. Pretty hard to do when you're working every day and the tests are reserved for "mostly-peacefully demonstrators."

They're probably not using it because they can't find it. I looked on the homepage and have no idea where it is.

[Sidecarbill]

I think you have to be a gold member?

[John Luciano]

Here we go. May still be to early to tell if the Covid scare will be over. But we can still hope.

[dinosaur]

So I can get my time off scheduled, just to verify date and location (since I’m not on Facebook), it’s at Kitzhof Inn on Sept 23-26? And I’m guessing when making reservations we need to mention “trike rally”?

Thanks
