I negotiated a group rate and have 15 rooms set up to start, The rate will be $99 a night, it's not a Motel 6, but not the W, but a good older hotel that will have a parking lot for us to "meet" in and they're ok with us BBQ'n in the parking lot.

There's not a lot of choice in that area that will meet our needs. This should meet our needs nicely.

I'll have the group code for the rate in a few days.

2 Queens or King room. Not a ton of savings but $10-$20 a night less.

I was thinking the same thing. Now that it seems I can get by with a refurb, and not a restore, June seems about right.

Also...The Dalles Oregon is a nice drive from Moscow Idaho.

My wife has found that the Shiloh Inn has a VETERANS rate, it's only $89. Look for a dropdown in the rate area.

That savings pays for my gas.

About 45min down the gorge.

I spoke with BKLA yesterday and we may at least be able to get a parade lap at the Oregon Raceway, and I'm trying to put together a lunch as part of the experience there. Track time looks like it may not happen, but it's just a matter of $$$.

The vetrans rate and the AAA rate may be better as it looks like $99 a night + tax is the best I can get. They will set aside a back parking lot for us and we can have a BBQ out there. We can also run a few clinics. I was thinking about doing an Acrylic polishing one, and maybe aluminum polishing. If we can get a few others that want to step up I hope to have a 2-2-1/2 hour block of instructional how to's each could be about 30 min with a 10min space between to facilitate transition.
More to come

WCR 2013 The Dalles, OR - Shilo Inn, June 13th- 16th

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)


Proposed Bay Area caravan route:

- Leaving Wednesday, June 12th

- Driving up 101 north along the coast to Bandon, OR and stay overnight. Estimated driving time: 9 hours.

- There's a nice motel at the beach in Bandon that we stayed at on our way to the WCR in Seattle.

- Leave Bandon early on Thursday morning, continue north on 101 and cut over to Portland using 18.

- Pass through Portland and drive east on 30 to The Dalles. Estimated driving time: 7:30 hours.

- Going back home is either the reverse (preferred) or if we're in a hurry, we can just take 5 all the way down.

If you have time the Bandon Game park is on your route, it's pretty cool.

Good idea. I'll go a week early, check into the hotel, give myself an award for best driving lights, do the fun run (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) and then be home the next week for my Sons wedding. The wedding might not happen anyway. He proposed at the top of Mt. Whitney. That's 14,000 feet. I told him he was probably hypoxic when he proposed, so he could probably get out of it OK.

And the fact we are not a legal entity makes insurance more difficult. If we can piggy back on with another group then the cost is much more reasonable. We were looking at having to cover about $6k for a day, and the math is not there.

Ok, I've got to figure out how to embed the map. I probably have the most fun route I can imagine, though running up the coast sounds incredible. My route is 10 hours and some change and goes through mountains all the way. I think a night in Klamath Falls to split it up but it looks like the drive of a lifetime...

I am trying to tie us with another organization that may use that weekend. If a group will do that for us, track day would be around $250/day.
