Snarley Bill Posted September 7, 2014 Share #1 Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) heres where we stand on the rally. location will be st. charles ,mo.. i will be hosting, freebird will be cohosting, so far i have picked part of my committee. b2 mom and dad, and eusa 1, they will be handling registration. the dates will be near the end of july. i'm working with don on that. i have picked 2 host motels and a campground that we have used before. i will be needing several more on my committee to handle t-shirts and reservations. we have alot to do and almost 10 months to do it., so bear with me it will all fall into place. i'm open to sensible ideas from all you folks so we can make this a most enjoyable meet. right now i need some one to do t-shirts and name tags. any one got experience with this. i have some one in mind who i will contact. i am expecting a really big turnout so we will have it covered, lots of over flow motels and plenty of room for the last meal. we will have the calender up soon along with registration so we can start getting a count. i will keep you all updated so every one knows whats going on.

TheKid Posted September 7, 2014 Share #7 Posted September 7, 2014 This may be a miss for some that are doing the 75th sturgis rally too depending on dates. If it is at the very end of July or send week of Aug then you may catch some going or coming. I know I am going to Sturgis so I will pay attention to dates.

CMCOFFEY Posted September 7, 2014 Share #8 Posted September 7, 2014 I only get 1 kitchen pass for a long trip in 2015, so having the venture rally line up with sturgis would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etcswjoe Posted September 8, 2014 Share #9 Posted September 8, 2014 I have no desire to ever go to the Sturgis Rally but we are planning a a 20 day loop of the country next year and will just incorporate International in with it since St. Charles is actually on my original route.

EasyRider Posted September 8, 2014 Share #13 Posted September 8, 2014 Looks like a saddle sore going and a bun burner coming back. Don't think wife is coming unless she flies (by plane) Think the new venture will be out in time to make the ride on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brake Pad Posted September 8, 2014 Share #15 Posted September 8, 2014 Karen Solis and I already have our route planned out. Is it time to leave yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snarley Bill Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share #16 Posted September 8, 2014 darn we must have picked a decent date. it's really hard to pick dates for the big one because so many factors come to play like the weather, other rallies,back to school times, etc. we don't have much rain here then, maybe in and out scattered thunder storms. great riding weather. this year it was cool in july. must be global warming. :clap2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayceesfolly Posted September 9, 2014 Share #21 Posted September 9, 2014 Bill: I was looking at the photo of the campground and it appears to be a new campground. There appears to be a total lack of mature trees and shaded areas. Also, have seen some comments, on the Internet, about flooding in the area during heavy rain storms. Is this campground in a flood plain? I don't want to wake up to a foot of water in my tent. Is there another campground available in the area that offers tree shaded sites?

saddlebum Posted September 9, 2014 Share #22 Posted September 9, 2014 I just googled the camp site and google maps puts it right smack in the water. Please tell me it isn't so. My tent is good but not so good as it will float on water. Water bed anyone. And NOOOO TRAINS ;;;;; PLEASE NOOO TRAINS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim the photos are several years old. no flooding unless we have a big flood on the mississippi river it woild have to be a big one. i camp there all the time it is really a nice place. no other camp grounds around. there is one in town but it is kind of well used. st. peters has spent millions of dollars on this camp ground over the last several years.

Chugga chugga choo choo! I was talking with the wife last night, she wants to see the Arch and a few other St Louis touristy things, so extending the family vacation into the VR International might be a possibility.
