Yama Mama Posted March 3, 2009 Share #1 Posted March 3, 2009 I am not being nosey! Just wondered where every one is planning on riding to this summer. I know where I want to travel; I am never sure if it will happen or not. I want to go the Smokies again, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and probably down in Kentucky to take some of the distillery tours. I also would love to go to some Blue Grass Festivals. Of course, to Freebird's MD. Yama Mama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilvrT Posted March 3, 2009 Share #2 Posted March 3, 2009 No plans for this year other than Kruisin in the Kootenays. Money's tight this year as I'm starting to collect my Canada Pension in June and to qualify, I have to quit working for one month (and have no income) so that will consume any savings. Once the pension starts coming in, it goes towards paying for the new scoot. Until then, I've been supporting the payments out of savings. Ask this question again next year and I'll have something better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rottdoglover Posted March 3, 2009 Share #3 Posted March 3, 2009 Just a few short trips this year. Oberlin, OH first part of June. Asheville mid July. Marble Falls, AR first part of Aug. (see any pattern here?) Maybe Branson sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOre than likely a few rides in the Blue ridge Nad probably a trip or two to kerr lake. All of those will be on the bike plus a few in the Nantahala Gorge to raft out of the cage.

mini-muffin Posted March 3, 2009 Share #5 Posted March 3, 2009 Well to start I'm heading to NY for memorial day weekend, my niece is having her communion that weekend. Then Oberlin for MD, also skid in (even if it's only for the weekend). Mini asheville in July nothing planned for Aug. Jeff isn't getting vacation this year so only weekend type trips will work for us. No Vogel for us this year. If you make it to the Blue ridge you'll have to give me some notice I may be able to make a gathering for you. I know Painter and rooster would be able to head over since it's in there backyard.

friesman Posted March 4, 2009 Share #7 Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) I am planning to get to Kruisn the Kootenays in BC in July and then in Sept i am headed to Cody WY for the Venturerider Roundup. It looks like I am staying a lot closer to home this year than I did last year. But I forgot, i am slated for some sinus surgery in april or may I am hoping it wont interfere with any riding.

We'll be at Maintenance day, but other than that....I don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Eagle Posted March 4, 2009 Share #11 Posted March 4, 2009 My whole year is now up in the air - as I got laid off last month. I had planned on making STAR DAYS and the CODY Roundup - as well as couple of other Regional events. I still plan on making CODY - but will need to see how the health is (had kidney infections this week - waiting for test results) - and the work situation. A new boss might not be as understanding that sometimes we just got to go riding - ya know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
