Makes sense Wes. You can always catch up with us at some point if you want.bgwfreak777 wrote:That looks like a good itenerary.
I might be going with someone I know in Charlotte if they let me. Just because I'd rather not drive 3.5 hours to Raleigh if I could help it when I could just drive 1 hours across town.

Well it's official, I'm going to ride with Max and a friend of his up there.
I'm sure we'll see each other at the event or the meals at least.
Man I can't wait for May to get here. The web cam http://www.holidayworld.com/web_cam.html pic of Voyage on hw.com today was just breathtaking. What is that smoke from? On no! Voyage is burning to the ground!!11!!1!!
SOB doesn't even look as impressive as Voyage does. And I've been on SOB *piece of crap*.

BTW - I was not impressed with SOB at all. It was the most uncomfortable coaster car I have ever had the mispleasure of shoehorning myself into. Eeeck!

Yea, I already booked it and got a little bit of a break. I really don't mind the price. I'm going there because it will be nice to head out of HW at midnight and just slide across the street!bgwfreak777 wrote:Just an FYI,
The Santa's lodge or whatever it's called near the park is going to run you about $90-$100 per night that weekend.
There are cheaper hotels in Dale, IN which is about 10 minutes away and where we will probably be staying.

If yesterdays pics did not have you drooling enough, here's some more great news for you. Sunday was the Kentucky Rumbler construction tour, but it turned out to be much much more. Everyone got to RIDE, and the early reports are that it is fantastic.

Ok...here's the deal now.
The guys I was going to ride with aren't sure if they are going to stay for Beech Bend, and I definetley want to ride that.
So do you guys still have room for one other person?
Is the same plan in place ?? (Leave Thurs, Fri/Sat @ Holiday World, Sunday Beech Bend... Monday drive home)
Also, is the hotel sold out at Holiday World???
