Hoping to get there this year !!!

We've registered and made our reservations.
Good times ahead.

This one's going to be a lot of fun! The Best Western hotel is filling up fast, so I'm going to reserve more rooms next door at the Microtel (same owner) as backup in case we sell out at the Best Western like we did last year. Go ahead and call in your reservations in to the Best Western and be sure and tell them you are with Trike Talk/T.O.I. so you get the good rate. 828-926-3962

Due to numerous requests we have added Monday Sept 5th to our scheduled rally reserved dates.

If you have already booked a room and want to add Monday, just call the Best Western hotel and add Monday. Even though it is a considered a Labor Day Holiday block day and would normally be priced at $139, we will still get the $65 rate.

The rates are as follows:
Mon Sept 5th $65
Tue Sept 6th $65
Wed Sept 7th $65
Thur Sept 8th $65
Friday Sept 9th $89 (because it is a weekend rate and normally sells for $139)

If you come early and/or stay late the rates are as follows:
Sunday Sept 4th will be $109 per night and Saturday Sept 10th will be $109 per night.

Motel cost!

We have the whole Best Western hotel reserved. Michael is out of town and asked that we give him a couple of days to get back and get our reservations and group rates into the system. We get a big discount, so per Michael the owner, don't call to reserve your room until Monday, as the front desk will quote you a much higher rate, until he gets back and informs his employees.

I reserved a room today [3/1/16] at Best Western for the TT Maggie Valley event. I was quoted a price of $65 a day plus taxes, for a total of $216.45 for 3 days. However, with my AAA card I was quoted a cost of only $60.47 a day including taxes and fees. I don't see any TT discount with the numbers I received, did Michael not get the word?HOWEVER! I just called the BW and tried to register with my AAA card, and they said that the whole week has been blocked out and reserved, and that there was no space available. Obviously when they are slow they allow rooms to go cheaper, but since this is a holiday weekend and there are many bikers expected for the week, the room price "has been adjusted" to meet the demand. That said, the "special" TT price at the BW really is a GREAT price! And if you intend upon going to the TrikeTalk Maggie Valley event, make your reservations - NOW!

I just called in my reservations for my Trike Talk reunion and they want to charge me 65.00 Monday through Thursday but 89.00 for Friday night because it begins the weekend. Whats up?

I just found out that Friday is higher, see my post # 69 on the last page. Should have known it's always higher on Friday, Sat, Sunday at all resort hotels because thats when they are sold out. Cant blame them for having to make money where they can, they still are giving us a very good rate.

That's also why I added Monday the 5th to our schedule which is at the $65 rate. Those who want to depart on Friday morning may do so, just book your stay accordingly so Michael isnt holding rooms for our group that wont be occupied.

We will be arriving the 1st and leaving on the 10th. We have ridden most of the roads several times, have a good map and can pre-ride if necessary. We can do the Rattler after registration again.

I would like to see a trip on the Cherohala Skyway with a return thru the dragon, but it's 230 miles rt.

I led a Ride on this Route about 4 years ago...because of the mileage and curves, most were worn out before getting back to Maggie Valley, and about half peeled off early....ThumbUp

I knew it was to far but threw it out for an option, maybe if we got a closer start. I was not volunteering to lead it unless it was 10 or less. It is a nice run though.

OK...Our Bad News for this Thread...Mitzie went to work for Home Depot 3 years ago at Their "one of only 6" Convenience Stores, then transferred to the Regular Home Depot Store. Due to Her bad knee, She transferred back to the Convenience Store before Her knee replacement last year and has remained there. Home Depot sold the Stores at the end of 2015 to Tri-Star Shell (Dailys and Twice Dailys chain)...The TRIKE TALK 2016 MAGGIE VALLEY EVENT falls into the Dates She will be driving to another Twice Daily Store about 60 miles away for Training after They shut Her Store down for a re-model and rebuild........sooooooo, We will not be able to attend this year......sometimes "Life" gets in the way of FUN...Hope Everyone attending has a GREAT, FUN, and SAFE RALLY and Trip......ThumbUp
