Member Contributer 007 Posted April 17, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted April 17, 2015 If you get bored, don't forget about the ST1300! V4, comfy for passenger, tons of luggage space. And don't forget 740 pounds of bike between your legs.... Gone as soon as you move. Takes far more effort to take it off the side stand than to go peg to peg in the twisties! Good luck keeping up with KEBrider on his. As soon as BaileyRock gets accustomed to his, try to keep him in sight. Me, I'm slow on anything I ride. So it's definitely not the ST! I hear Kebrider and Baileyrock are taking it easy these days. Less hooligan behavior. I'm registered finally.... Now onto maintenance so I don't bring a death trap to TMAC, only Timmy is allowed to do that..... This is going to get interesting if the guys above are taking it easy on touring bikes, Matt has forks with oil in them, and Dave is, well, Dave. I will ride sweep so I can take it all in.

Forum CEO HispanicSlammer Posted April 17, 2015 Forum CEO Share Posted April 17, 2015 Warwoman is having a bit of trouble ordering beer, the brewery in ashville wont return her calls. So she found this place up the road 22 miles away that has pretty decent prices. I think we had 2 full sized half barrel kegs last few years? It was 2 right? So she is probably going to go with these guys if Ashville doesnt call her back http://www.yourgnometownbrewery.com/beers.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeper Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I think it was three last year. 22 miles does sound better though. I'll be happy to help with the pickup again if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer grond1234 Posted April 18, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted April 18, 2015 Ok - officially signed me and the wife up. Now got to get the rust off. Was out for one short ride last week and going out tomorrow. Not the smokies but helps to remember where the controls are and what they do.

daword2011 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Just registered. It will be my first long, interstate trip, but I have confidence it will be well worth the ride out there. Also may be the youngest at 22 but I love my VFR and would love to meet all of y'all. I will be reserving a room if anyone wants to split it with me, I'll even be nice and go 50/50 with you on the price ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes years of experience to advance to the immaturity level of this group. TMAC is a great way to hasten the advancement. How many boxes of sangria shall I bring?

daword2011 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Since I have never been to a TMAC do we ride on sunday? or do people typically roll out sunday after check out? Trying to see if I should get a hotel Sunday night too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wera803 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I think most people head for home Sunday. There are always a few people that stay Sunday night though. Last year Monday was Memorial day, so a lot of people had it off work. I am only about 90 miles from Franklin, so I pack up and take the long way home.

KanadianKen Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Ahhhh - memories of the last dozen TMAC's flying through my head......... If Sangria is on the premises - it is IMPERATIVE that some mechanical activity take place under the front stoop of the motel - with countless volunteers wrenching on random bikes. If the blender appears, make sure that Corner Carver serves appropriately flavored Mint Julips - as well as Margharitas - and then try more mechanical enhancements - it usually works out just fine...... And lastly - if a tire needs to be changed - EVERYONE must forage in the adjacent wood lot for lumber to help break the bead on the tire - its best to simply avoid this situation - and stick with some Canadian beer or Whiskey - while others rip layers of flesh from their knuckles.... I will be there in spirit with you fine people - hoping to see some awesome videos posted of 28, pics of riding and motel shenanigans, and of course the Saturday night event - I hope its a blast for everyone.
