I warned a month and a half ago that room rates/availability are changing big time. If you haven't booked a room, better get on it. Tahoe is an amazing destination. The longer you wait, the higher the rate. Wait too long and hotels may be sold out.


Rand is right. I just went to the Peppermill in Reno for a concert and the hotel was sold out. Rand told me that it was sold out for 8 weeks!

Went up to Tahoe this past weekend. Unless there is a freak storm, all the snow will be gone, but the beautiful scenery will remain. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) I'm PSYCHED!!

Schedule details have been a bit thin so far. I know Thursday is a "bonus" with just the meet and greet that evening, but would like to know more about Friday's plan. Is Friday a "full day" so that folks should show up before Friday morning so as not to miss out on something?

Driving time from Flagstaff is 12+ hours and I can probably do it in one day, but it would be helpful to know some additional schedule info so that I can decide and figure out if Linda is going to want to come along.

I told my wife it is a vacation so anytime away from home, kids and the usual crap is good time! We don't have to be there all the time because there are alot of other things to do. Other than the BS'ing, Drinking, BBQing and the drives there is another 14 hours of me and her time! Besides she really doesn't want me around all the time? After a few hours she will tell me to go play with the other kids so it works out great!!! She can use some alone time to do what she wants.

Just got off the phone with Harvey Weidman of Weidman Wheels in Oroville CA. I thought I should let you guys know that Harvey has confirmed that he will be there and will do a Tech Session on Porsche Wheels and 914 Wheels. If you have never heard or spoken to Harvey, you should know, no one knows more about Fuch wheels and Porsche wheels.

Other tech sessions include Andy Schmidt on string alignment, Mark Debernardi on something mysterious and dark, Mike Lesniak on 901 Transmissions, and possibly, Eric Shea on brakes.

Registration and the schedule of events will be announced immenently. Register early!

I'm interested in hearing where people are staying other than Harveys, and if anyone has a recommendation either pro or con regarding other hotels in the neighborhood.
My wife and I won't spend any amount of time in the casinos. We're more interested in outdoor activities and sightseeing when not involved with the group. All the online info from expedia, etc. has narrowed it down but I'm still a bit lost as to where we will stay, and I want to have our reservations made by this weekend.

Thats on our short list right now. We'd like to have internet access, but $12/day is a bit steep. Also a fitness center and swimming pool would be nice.

Mont Bleu has a pool, not sure about the fitness center...as for internet, I think you're stuck. Most places charge an obscene amount unfortunately.

FWIW, Mont Bleu is my favorite place in Tahoe

My wife Nancy and I are registered/paid! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) And we're already set up at Harvey's.

We lived on the north shore of Lake Tahoe (Tahoe City) from 2000-04, so we know the Tahoe Basin pretty well. I'm sure Nancy would like to participate in at least one day hike, and there's a great rock-n-dirt one off Highway 89 / Luther Pass toward Markleeville. We could easily spend 2-4 hours on that hike, depending on how far you wanna go. Another sweet (granite) hike is the Eagle/Velma Lakes trail near Emerald Bay; since it is a west-shore location, it will probably have more snow than Luther Pass. Both of these locations are a ~30 minute drive from Harvey's, and either will provide sweeping views of Lake Tahoe. Let me know if you're interested.

The road tour will go through Markleeville assuming monitor pass is open by then. Lovely country for hiking back there!

Thats good enough for me...
Well, that and the fact that I have more than enough rewards miles to cover a room there for 3 nights (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
So far I haven't had to shell out any cash for the trip. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)
