ALL UPDATES WILL BE RIGHT HERE ON THIS POST


Ok, it's that time again this will be the Official thread for all the info for the 2007 Kelly Brown Memorial R1/R6 Forum East Coast Convention at Deal's Gap. Let's keep this thread for info and convention talk. The R6-Forum will be joining us again this year. The R6 Forum is owned by the same people, the McCoy's, that own the R1 Forum so we are going to make this a combined event for this year. Although we will keep up with all the R1 Forum stuff here and they will keep up with the R6 Forum Stuff over there.

FUNDS REQUIRED: TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON

Cut off will be May 10th 2007 for that money. We will have arm bracelets to identify if you have paid or not.


Here are the details to date:
Date: June 11-17th
These are the dates that it will Officially be going on. But the Dinners will still be Monday-Friday and Yamaha Dinner Saturday again. If you can't come the whole week at least try and get there by Wed or Thursday. The whole area is unbelievable during the week when things aren't as crowded.

Place: Deal's Gap
info about the Gap: www.tailofthedragon.com

Lodging: Fontana Village
Website: www.fontanavillage.com
Rates: CLICK HERE WE do get Discount Rates, But you MUST tell them you are with the Yamaha R1 Forum Group 1-800-849-2258 tell them you are with R1-Forum www.fontanavillage.com
Make your reservations early. IT WILL FILL UP!!! It would really suck to not be able to get a cabin at Fontana:yesnod There are other places to stay but you want to stay up there with us for sure.

They do have Inn rooms available this year, but I suggest getting a cabin. You can come out a lot better and they can get you closer to where will be set up in a cabin also. And to be honest some of their cabins are just a cheap as the Inn Rooms. Look at their website and inquire of them by phone to make your choice. 1-800-849-2258. I would suggest making reservations as early as you can, everywhere fills up that time of year up there. Make sure you tell them you are with the R1 Rally so you get the special rates and so that they put you with us, if there are any problems ask to speak with Toni, John or Debbie or just let me know. They have blocked off a section for us. So start making reservations as soon as you can. For the guys coming up as singles I would suggest getting together with other folks on the Forum and splitting the cost of a small or large cabin. There are gonna be several cabins available. Some of them brand new!
Fontana also has campsites available if you want to camp. They are approx. a mile down the road.

CUT OFF DATE TO RESERVE CABINS/ROOMS IS MARCH 1ST

We have X amount of cabins blocked off for us at a discounted rate, after March 1st they will be released to the general public and WILL sell out. SO GET YOUR RESERVATIONS MADE!!!!


Everyone is welcome – but please realize that this group is made up with many types of riders of different skill levels and desires. This is not about getting together to race, or to drag other people into riding above their limits! Everyone is expected to ride at their own pace and have a good time!

I do need volunteers to help pick up the food each night and to also help clean up each night and take back Fontana's dishes etc.

I will probably need a few others to help with some stuff too. Let me know if you are interested.

thanks!

lol, yeah that is nice:lol

Chad, I'll be glad to help out Scott get and set up the food each night. Just let me know what needs to be done.

Brian, dude I really feel sorry for you when all the farting reaches maximum peak around 2AM. Man, I seriously hope no one lights a match. Between Pete and Scott there should be enough gas to power all of our bikes for the entire week. :scared Remember, if it gets that bad bring your blanket and come next door. You can crash on the floor or the couch cushions until the air quality returns to normal. :lol
