I hope to come this year and have not yet experienced Barber's.

I know! Most guys would have already been there if as close as I am to Barber's. I have always wanted to take a day trip up riding but lack of riding buddies has always squelched that. I'm sure it's a blast and would be good to see the gang and ol' friends again! :D

If you love motorcycles as everyone on here does, the museum is probably one of the finest in the world.Lots of eyecandy. :thumbup: :thumbup: Not sure if they have it every year but the wall of death is very cool. I met one of the riders and he was from a town about 15 minutes from me, the rest were from California.

I'll be there at least for the Saturday and possibly more (depends on work) this year. Ran across Ric and a couple of other Triples guys on my travels around the swap meet last year, so I hope to see more of you this time round. It's a nice days drive from here in Chattanooga so I don't usually stay overnight, but if enough go I would join in at a decent hotel.

I went last year and stayed a 10 minute ride on backroads (and partly though a neighborhood) to get to the park. Nice place, but I don't remember which motel it was. My brother made the reservations. I will probably go again this year and I will find out where it was we stayed and let everyone know.
I was the only triple at the motel and received a LOT of ATTENTION. My brother woke up at 3:00 am and said people were hanging around my bike. They were just admiring and nothing to worry about.
If you've never been.......! It is now the largest vintage motorcycle event in North America.
