SEBSPEED Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Sorry for the late notice (again).... I'm thinking we can have everyone try to gather for Friday night for a "safety meeting", then ride on Saturday and split up Saturday night? I have a lot going on this year and I'm not sure I'll be able to hang out for Saturday night. ...Mother Nature was nice to us last year, and this year is not looking to bad yet either! No torrential rains and brutal temps (yet)! The Red Ranch Motel worked out pretty well last year, let's give them some business again.Here is the hotel info: Red Ranch Motel4555 Route 32Catskill, N.Y. 12414Info: 518-678-3380Reservations: 1-800-962-4560http://www.redranchmotel.com/***Room rates are a bit lower than last year, NO holiday rate applies.***Friday night = $68.00 + tax.

Member Contributer midlifeVFR Posted September 24, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted September 24, 2013 I will be staying local, but probably not at the Red Ranch. I'll have the truck for beer runs and rescue missions. I won't be working on Friday, so let me know if any of you are landing in the Catskills or Mid Hudson Valley early and we'll cover some roads that might be missed during Saturday's loop.

SEBSPEED Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 As always. Falls on the weekend of my birthday... Working on a major kitchen pass ;) Well, if you can't make it, insist on dinner at "Beast of Bourbon" in BedStuy. That's where meat master Frank of Cha Cha Hut BBQ moved his skills to. Come to think of it, if you are coming, bring some ribs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer vfrAustin Posted September 29, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted September 29, 2013 Turn out looks light but that in no way means the riding won't be great. Tyson and I are riding up on Friday afternoon to take the long way up. Going to pass on the libations Friday night and meet up for breakfast wherever you guys want. I am going to try and swap a tire out before the weekend. The tire I am wearing now is practically a slick and not good for any wet riding.

SEBSPEED Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 Unfortunately, the BBQ place moved to Brooklyn. I have not found a suitable replacement. We'll probably do lunch at Brio's in Phoenicia, they have good variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KanadianKen Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Room for a Kanadian at this boondoggle? I wouldn't be there till late Friday night but it's on my radar. My birthday is the 4th and my wife is telling me to go and celebrate in NY. Timmy - this on your agenda? Need to see weather outlook - not wanting a repeat of the PA trip.......

Grayv3 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Don't jinx me, I'll have new tires as of tomorrow. That would be awesome, thank you!! Can you pm me the address & if I need to bring anything for sleeping arrangements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Rice Posted October 1, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted October 1, 2013 Add me to the list. I'll be arriving Friday night around 8 or so. Anyone has a spare bed in their room? I promise not to snore too much ;) On the other note, I'm hoping for a forgiving pace. This year has not been good riding wise for me. TMACK and one other ride for me and that's all :( Can't wait to see y'all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
