Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

This will be my 10th year in a row.
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

For all you that have been there many times... Does anyone have some "tips" for someone (me) that will be going for the first time? Where is the best place to stay? Are there nice/close hotels? Other things to do in the area? Where exactly is it? If I'm a "noobie" do I need to bring beer for all you guys....:laughing7: I'm a Jack drinker so you can have the beer..

Thanks in advance!!

Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

the majority of us have been staying at a local hotel a few miles from track. paulfun stayed at a campground this past year, & i think i may pack up the motorhome & stay at the campground for the 2009 VMD to save a little money. i spent way too much at VMD 2008, but we'll see ! if you go the hotel route ? you need to book a room early ! they fill up fast !!!!

Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

Funny, just asked my son three days ago if he was interested in going again. He said yes, that he had a great time. Would love to do the camping thing, since he an I haven't camp out since he was in cub scouts.
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

Rammy the camping is the way to go!
I had a camp site at a campground this year and the cost for a four day stay was less than what some payed for a single night in the hotel !
Will be doing the same this year as well but probably use a tent instead of hauling the camper the hole way and hopefully bring both bikes instead of just one.
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

I like to take showers,AC,TV,etc.
And I`d prefer NOT riding my bike through mud and dust.

That campground was cleaner than the inn-field for sure.. Don't know about showers...I was thinking of camping this year
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

Yes the camp ground was nice and clean. Showers at the top of hill were brand new. The showers at the bottom of the hill not so great, but still useable.
I can understand the need for air conditioning and all that. Just that I am a tight a-s when it comes to spending money so as a substitute for air conditioning, when reserving the camping spot I always ask for a shady spot under a tree.
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

I will be there come hell or high water!
A couple guys that worked for me in Ohio are good friends with the owners of the campground that Paul stayed at. If we want to reserve a section of the campground I can make that happen! I will need to know in the next couple months so I can contact them and set it up. I will be staying there this year as well. Hoping that all us Minn members can caravan to Ohio for '09 and the caravan can grow as we head East!
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

Putt if you can get a spot at the camp ground like that let me know before the new year is here or sooner as I have been thinking about reserving a spot real soon.

Does the camp ground have electric hookups.My brother got a camper this year.I'm tring to talk him into going.I figure if I offer to pull it over,and let him ride one of the bikes,how could he say no.(lol)How much was it to stay at the camp ground?
 
Re: Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009

I just had another idea :idea: *I know scary isn't it!* :shock: Anyway my big idea which I am sure someone mentioned before but maybe didnt figure out a way to actually do it. Is for those of us going to M/O to send like 2 or 3 people to the place that was alotted for us and get set up without the bikes and then leave and meet up with the rest of the group about 10 miles away on some back road and then all ride in to the vintage days together! Wouldnt that turn heads! LOL would be so cool if we could get like 20-30 of us to all roll in together and file into our patch of M/O. :headbang: :twisted: :biggrin: Corny I know maybe I should just :ignore: ! lol
