TTR-V - Rally In The Valley 2012

[Calman]

Champsman,



By the time your rally rolls around I should be back in NC. But I'll holler when I come through OC to see if you're home.



Was statioined at Swan Island in the 70's (trained USN Reserves) and lived on an old logging bunkhouse (coverted to a floating 3 apartment building) at Sellwood Bridge. It was kind of neat back in those days. On a hot summer day dive off the top deck into the Williamette. Or go across the bridge and enjoy the amusement park.

We had moved it to the hotel tent since WTT was supposed to be closed but now we have that option open to us. I kinda think we may want to keep it at the hotels since we would be covered if it happened to rain. Whats your thoughts?


I also think we should eliminate the door prize drawings since its getting harder and harder to get prizes donated plus it was also a long process time wise. I want to get back to the basics of a good old meet-n-greet. Thoughts?

Our vote is at WTT and when it comes to door prize drawings limit it to 20 prizes or less.. OHO thanks for all the hard work "STAFF" Charlie D & the IMP.

[Oldmsocko]

My vote would be to forget about the door prizes.

[Papa Zook]

We're gonna nix the door prize thing and spend more time relaxing after the meal. I like the idea of having the cookout at the hotel as we can just all hang out, have a beverage or two if anyone wants to, take a nap...whatever and not have to drive back to the room afterward. The door prizes were nice but the time visiting and getting to know one another was better and we want more of that.

D'you suppose we could get two or three 'special' awards - best Wing, best HD, best VW, best Stallion, youngest, oldest trikers, farthest, etc. - made? Perhaps somebody who does woodworking would 'volunteer' to make 'em for the price of the wood??? It might make a winter project for somebody who enjoys doing that . . .

Yeah I think we could do that. I think we'll just have them made...we'll check into it.

[Maryland Triker]

Okay I've registered me & The Warden (Jan), pre-paid for our meal tickets and booked 6 rooms for our group coming down from southern Maryland I hope they all get registered. Looking forward to some good rides and comraderie.

[Nana]

Can't wait to meet you all!!!!!

[Seavon]

I just signed up for the Microtel Inn. Great rate $80 for any type room. Lady did say that she was moving to release rooms as not many folks have signed up yet. This will be my very first rally with a Trike so should be interesting.

I just spoke by phone with the manager representing both the Best Western and the Microtel. Per our original agreement, all rooms in BOTH motels are to be held for the TrikeTalk Rally group until March 2012. At that point, any un-spoken-for rooms will be made available to the general public, although any of our members will still be given the discounted rate if they call for an available room at that time. The manager assured me this morning that agreement is still in effect, and that he will follow up with the motel staff to clarify that!

However, I would urge anyone planning to attend the rally to call one of the two motels ASAP and hold a room.

It would be disappointing if a number of our group were to end up scattered around town because we delayed and lost the hold on these two large blocks of rooms!!! Although we would hope that no one has to cancel, there is a cancellation policy that will allow that to occur with reasonable notice.

I know I'm sure looking forward to it, had a very enjoyable time last year, met some great people.... Come on June!
