Mike,

we got three spots in a row. I'll check with my partner but I am sure we can make some room. We were planning on setting up kind of a hospitality tent so everyone can meet up.

I was in Hershey on Monday and Tuesday at the PETE&C(Tech geek)conference at the Lodge but I never got a free moment to give you a ring. I hope your not driving the BMW it was, COOOOld in Hershey.

You guys are the best!

Nope, the BMW is down for electrical issues (no free time to fix it) and I have been driving my neutered 4-runner (removed front drive so only 2WD) which has sucked in the rink I have in my parking lot. Now I got to make some bolts!

I had a K75 with electrical issues. Check and clean the relays under the gas tank. That bike had too many electronics that I spent a lot of time fixing. Once I figured out how the system worked it was a lot easier than I ever expected.

All the years I lived in Cincinnati, I swore I'd make it to the event. But, every year I thought about the 500 mile drive & putz'ed out.

I've lived a hundred miles from this event for the last 11 years & still never made it. Don't even have a proper excuse!

This will be the year. I'll be on a buying binge & selling nothing but a trunk load of Factory posters. No table - don't want comitments. I'll be the dorky looking accountant type.

I could care less if it rains - I'm ready. I'llbe wearing a badge that says "dorky accountant". See me if you really give a sh_t. If you want to buy me a beer, that's different.

Its the K1100RS, Dan. The K75 is up in Oregon at CAMP 914 where Craig and I are trying, not very hard as we are both busy, to sell it. Craig is trying to do me a favor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I hope I dont have a test the following week so I can get all irresponsible on Fri and Sat night. We should all plan to meet up. Last year people, against my protests due to its difficulty to find for the new folks, wanted to go to the bears den. When I got there with Ed Marrow there were about 3 other guys and the place was packed with pre pubescent cheerleaders that were in town for a convention. Not much fun, but the company (Ed, et. al.) was good. I am much more familiar with my surroundings now and can recommend some places to go. As for those wanting single women and boobs and such, good luck. This is central PA, small town Hershey. The closest tity bar is in Harrisburg about 20 min away and not in the nicest part of town (from what I saw when I drove by). I cant vouch for the quality either (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I've been there the last few years. If there is any chance of rain this time around I'm going to pass. If I come i'd like to trailer my 914 and run the autox on sunday.

Hope to see you guys there!

My son and I are planning on driving up from Atlanta. I was there with my wife about 6 years ago and haven't been able to make it back since. This year is a good one for my first road trip with my son (9). He's really getting into cars so this ought to be fun.....even if it rains.

We need to figure out a time and a place to meet up for the drive out.

Sorry I have a one track mind and that is: to buy a car.
I remember going to a Zone 1 swap event years ago and buying a car as a club member drove up to the parking lot.

Are there typically 914's for sale at the swap meets?

I stayed there a couple of weeks ago at the days Inn. I think it is a couple miles to the event. It was a standard hotel and was cheap

I took a second set of socks and shoes last year and changed as soon as I got back to the car. Then I went to the Appalachian Brewing Co. in Harrisburg to have a bite and finish drying out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

As for Hersheypark, the past several years have been the same weekend as the Griffith Oil Customer Appreciation Day. The oil company rents the entire park and you have to buy tickets in advance. I don't know whether they are doing it on the same day this year, but I may be able to get tickets for those who are interested.
