TT NorthEast Rally 2013 Details

[spiritdream]

I attended the New England Rally last year and had a great time, met some great people and was looking forward to this year's rally, but I will be leaving for Sturgis, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon and will be gone for the month of August, but will be looking forward to your next one for sure.

Mary, will miss seeing you, but sounds like you have an awesome trip planned!! Enjoy & be safe, and remember pictures!! ThumbUp

Looks like the Rally is coming together real fine. We all appreciate the work you people are doing to get this years rally planned. I'm down in Myrtle Beach with the wife getting in some rideing time & enjoying the sun, feel a little guilty watching the weather channel & seeing all the reports of the Storm thats hammering the east coast, nice sunrises & waves rolling in............Love it!!!!!!

Don't feel guilty - feel a little smarter than some of us... :laugh:

We visited another restaurant that I am adding to the list. They seat about 75 people. They serve mainly Italian food. Parking for 10 to 12 trikes. They have a separate party room seats 35 people. Food is good. I will be testing out some of the food. Tough job , but someone has to do it. I will take one for the team.

Hmmm... Seating for 75 and parking for 10-12 trikes. Party room seats 35 and parking for 10-12 trikes. Should be interesting. :laugh:

 

[John Luciano]

Menu of that place is very extensive . Wraps, pizza, colzon, full chicken, beef, and fish dinners. Italian. Burgers, salads. Range $5.00 to $17.00-20.00
Might be an option for some people.

 

[gamechngr]

Ha ha where vegan. It's a challenge eating out. But when in Rome we do cheat.

 

[John Luciano]

I do not see you Registered... They have veggie Stromboli . And veggi salad, also veggi wraps and pizza. I am sure we're ever we go I can get you a compleat vegetarian meal.
You could team up with Bozo and come on the ferry. And ride up to the rally.

 

[gamechngr]

Do you see my registration for Doug and Pat?
I will reach out to Bozo so we can come up together. Sounds like a lot of fun!
Also called Hotel but they have to call me back.

 

[John Luciano]

If you have trouble with hotel let me know I will straighten it out. You called and mentioned it is for the Trike Talk Rally?

 

[John Luciano]

If everyone that registered for the rally also registered at the Motel I have to know. Looks like I may have to block off more rooms. WooWoo gona be great.

 

[gamechngr]

Yes told them for rally. Someone's was supposed to call back but did not. I have to follow up with them.

 

[87Trike1200]

John, We did the on-line rally registration form a while back, but did not call the hotel yet. I figured with 6 mos to go there was no big rush. We should be on the registration list, yes?

 

[John Luciano]

I just emailed the manager. Some of the desk people are afraid to hand out the rate. It is $30.00 less than the normal room rate. Did you give a screen name. I told the Doug from Oceanside, NJ

 

[John Luciano]

I just did some calculations
We have 6 states coming (NYNY and upstate as 1) MASS,NY,NH,PENN,CONN,NJ)
Trikes Attending 2. 5. 1. 1. 2. 3
We have 29 people coming ( there are also 2 trikes and 4 people not reg yet)
Not included in the trike count are 2 people coming on 2 wheels
Get your names reg and reserve your room, we have 15 rooms and only 5 left .
I can add more if I know soon enough

Yes, you're both on the registration list! ThumbUp

 

[John Luciano]

860-496-8808 # 309. Leave a voice message with your info. ( name,number and your attending the NE TT rally ) . This is the hotel managers Cell. This will save you a step. So he says.

 

[ladyff1481]

29 people already! I can't wait! We still have so much more time to go yet, so that is a wonderful count. I will keep promoting it on the TRI GLIDE site on Facebook and I have got to chase some friends down. This is just getting better and better.

 

[John Luciano]

I wish I could make it a week. There are so many great rides and eating places i would like go to . I Think a social night out would be nice. Or a Chinese hibachi ( Benny Hana ) style cooking with all the fun cooking stuff would be fun as a group. The seafood place last night was good. A great ride to West Point / Bear Mt with a stop at OCC would be fun too. A BBQ/ weeni roast with an out door movie... That will be some of the future stuff. Lets see how this year goes. Thinking of a grand prize for a door prize. Hummmm! Any suggestions?

 

[Coach 64]

I just met up with some people from the Reteads NE chapter and gave them the information about our rally. Two are trikers who seemed interested.

[John Luciano]

Good job. Did you also tell them about Triketalk.com?

 

[John Luciano]

Just wondering how many are planning to come on Thurs. I know a few entertained going to Wood 'n Tap for ribs. I spoke to them last night about a possible parking spots held open for us in the parking lot. I think 4 spots would be enough even for 5 or 6 trikes. Around 7:30 . Yes we went and tested the Ribs again. Still good. That's Honey enjoying her fish and chips luncheon size portion. Yea I got the ribs with a salad, cole slaw,and sweet potato fries. There is a inside patio and and outside deck.

 

[John Luciano]

We can't go here this year, maybe next. It is Jonesy neighborhood ( Westfield.)
Roma's Resturant . Coach would like this meal. For a few more bucks you can get it with a Lobster tail.

 

[denviola]

Just registered wife (Deb) and myself, will be bringing the new toy hauler with the Spyder on board and looking to stay at a campground John suggested. Will arrive Friday.
BTW, a north east fall event for Spyders called Spyders in the Adirondacks was just cancelled for this year, and several members from NY, NH, MA & VT are trying to organize an alternative. Any interest in reaching out to them? There potentially could be quite a few attendees, which would result in logistical pros and cons. Just a thought.

[Jonesy]

Welcome aboard, our rally couldn't handle hundreds, but we promise to make your trip to our rally enjoyable. There will be a more detailed page on what is planned coming up shortly. If you need help on campgrounds, John L. is the local member there I'm sure he'll help you in any way he can. If you got any friends tell them they are more than welcome to join us too.

 

[John Luciano]

I agree with Jonsey. The motel can handle 125 rooms. We are not ready to run that big of a rally at this time. Not saying they can't come and have their own rally. We just can't offer much in the Help dept.

I am sure you can give assistance to them if they decide to venture out, like you did get names of motels/hotels in the area. Also, with all the places to eat you have visited, you can tell them.
Maybe some day it will be a Maggie Valley North, but when that happens, it will be a committee doing the work, not one or two people.
Maybe if they come they can stay near by and conduct their own rally events like places to eat and tour, but we could be near each other so we can socialize at night. Just a thought.

Rosy & Janice
from NH

 

[John Luciano]

That is what I was leaning towards. It would be great to have more trikes near by. I would just suggest that they Handle their own motel rooms. It they. Choose to ride with us they can form their own group. I can give them advice where to stay. I am sure the motel we are using could take on a few more. They would have to call on their own. And yes the social venue would be enjoyable. We are all in the same WIND and all on 3 wheels even.

 

[denviola]

Another member that is on Spyderlovers as well as here posted a link to this thread on the Spyder forum. I jumped in and mentioned what you said above - you would be willing to share any info if there was interest in organizing a companion event.
Here is a link to the thread on SL:
No SITA this year

 

[spiritdream]

Denny, by all means invite them, or let us know if you have a contact email. The more the merrier!
