I just received my reservation confirmation from the KOA in Boone. Has everyone made their reservations? Kristina is asking me because she hasn't heard from anyone else. Make sure you mention the FJ Rally as I think they give us a little bit of a discount on the rate.

I haven't made reservations yet, but I'm planning on it.

I don't think I'm camping, I think Boone 2021 might be my last time sleeping on the ground in 45F temperatures.

My reservation has been made. This will be my first, east coast rally and I am looking to it. The last rally I was able to attended was WCR 2019. That means i'm overdue.

I have room for another person if you want to split the cost of a cabin.

Kurt,

Keep in mind that although we've had good luck over the years in Boone, sometimes there is fog an colder temps in the morning or pouring rain, to the tune of 5" in a day. Most of the time the weather is in the acceptable to good range. Just make sure you pack clothes for all conditions or you may be heading into town for more appropriate clothing. ;^) It's all good.

Oh, and there will be a bonfire regardless of the weather conditions.

Thanks for the heads up. I am going to start getting the bike ready, this weekend. By the time I get back home, it should be over 5,000 miles on this trip.

Paul,

If you haven't been to an ECSR, the "official" dates are usually the Fri./Sat./Sun. (3rd weekend in May). Several of us arrive earlier, my wife Kris and I should arrive on Mon. 5/16 and we'll be leaving on Sun. I'll see if I can convince her to ride down to the 2 stroke rally on Tue. or Wed. but it would make for a long day at about 200 mi. each way. We'll see, it's a shorter ride from Tellico to Deal's Gap during the Fall Rally.

Note, several rally goers also arrive early so there will be a growing number as the week progresses.

200 miles on my RD would not be really fun. I may wait for the fall one and just join.
If you do make it, it is a good time. 22nd year in a row. We sell the place out for a week. lots of smoke and old bikes.

Looks bad for Nancy and me for the Boone rally.  This spring is getting everything piled on top of one another.  I'll post if things change but right now it appears that we won't be able to attend. :dash2:

You didn't flunk retirement again, did you?

I wish...It would help with the crazy high diesel prices....as if that was the only issue.   :drinks:
