After a summer of scouting, touring, remembering, riding and experiencing - it's time to chose a site for the 2018 meet.

From the survey results of SUMSUM3 held in Montrose, CO, (2015), the location will be changing. This summer, I'll be heading out with my research & destroy partner, to scout out new potential locations for a "possible" SumSum4, slated for summer 2018. If you have interest in attending, suggestions for a location and/ or interest in helping out with the event, should it come to fruition, please chime in. If you have no idea what a SumSum is, I suggest you search the site as there are plenty of references and threads from other members.

REGISTER HERE: http://sumsumx2.eventbrite.com/ The second all regions Summer Summit meet will be in Montrose, CO. This event is held once every three years, open for all VFRD members to trek to the central US for a few days of riding, meeting old friends and making new ones, putting faces to the members, drinking some great local brewed products, getting tips and taking tricks that others have discovered, all for the enjoyment and riding of our VFRs. The (first) 2009 SumSum was held in Dillon, CO and hosted some 62 bikes ranging from an '84 Interceptor through every model year. At first, many scoffed at how early the information was posted for reservation and registration, then many wept as they waited too long to book time off and missed out on one of the best regarded events. Don't be sorry. Tuesday to Friday, August 14 – 17th Host hotel: Best Western Red Arrow 1702 E Main St., Montrose, CO 81401 p: 970-249-9641 A preliminary block of 20 rooms has been registered under the name VFRD at a rate of $89 / night +tax. FCFS - Once filled, a second & third block will be offered at progressive rates. For those who are Best Western Gold Crown Rewards collectors, the hotel will honor a maximum of 2 nights per room booked, for redeeming points to free nights. This is fair trade as we will no doubt have the entire hotel booked. Even better, use them at hotels on your route down. Overflow / optional rooms are available at the Days Inn, not ¼ block down the street. (room deal and contact info to come) Preliminary Itinerary: Tuesday: Arrivals, check in and mingling Wednesday: Day ride, trade & equipment show Thursday: Day ride, evening social, wind up dinner Friday: Departures, day social & rides Event sponsors, details, registration inclusions & method will be coming in the following months. This is the preliminary announcement to commence hotel booking and allow you to arrange suitable time off for travel, meet and return. This thread will grow with information as it becomes available. No need to add your name here as a registration page will be created, most likely through Eventbright.
