There have been several members across the country expressing an interest lately about meeting up in person. Let's start a real discussion about this and see what we can come up with.
I would begin by proposing a very general idea.
*Pick a spot in the midsection of the US
*Post some suggested dates
*Assess the interest (in terms of numbers)
*Narrow the plan down to a specific location that can accommodate everyone
*Ride, ride, ride
I'll start.
Let's have a general meet-up for members and any friends and significant others who would like to attend.
A 2 or 3 night stay would give time to have a proper meeting and allow for those who may only be able to make a day visit at the beginning or the end.
Something within a 200 mile radius of Kansas City seems pretty neutral and central but we can adjust location based on where the farthest members would be coming from.
My wife and I go to a rally in Panama City Beach, FL and visit friends along the Gulf Coast each spring at the end of April. We could add a week to that trip and say plan this event for late April or early May. This is just a starting point for discussion, any time could be made to work.
The floor is open. Let's hear some ideas.
