Forum Frenzy 09!!!!!

[BubbaZanetti]

The National Rally is right around the corner and it's time to announce the 2009 FORUM FRENZY!

What: A chance to put faces to the usernames you see daily on this forum.

When: Friday, July 17th 7:30-9pm

Where: The Beer Garden

Who: All welcome!


This is an informal gathering, designed to help bridge the gap between "cyberspace and IRL". Come hang out, have a good time and meet all those posters you've been dying to have a face to face chat with. We used to have a sign, but i'm not sure what happened to it, if I can't find it, i'll make one on the back of a place mat with crayon.:drink:laugh

[KGT1200]

I'll be on duty refreshing everyone with a cold one; look for the burned out and over the hill Tom Selleck looking guy with the salt and pepper caterpillar under his nose...that’ll be me!

[Rpbump]

I plan on arriving Wed and have volunteered for the Beer Tent/Garden.
Ride Safe :usa :drink :usa

[Greg_K]

Holly

[AZ-J]

I'm a volunteer for the Photography committee. Does that count?

[Polarbear]

I have a shift on security detail at that time, so you'll all be "watched":). I take bribes:).....Be good to see many new faces, outside of this computer screen. Look for the "Polarbear" on my shirt. Later, Randy:usa

[AZ-J]

Look for me. I am supposed to snap whatever and whoever I see good, happy or smiling.

[cheesewhiz]

Did someone say beer?
I am SO there!

:drink

[Roc-Roc]

I'll be working, too - but the Board shift in the Beer Garden doesn't start until 8:00 - so I can have some F2F time with everybody for a while. :beer

[BubbaZanetti]

[DPeakMD]

Thanks! Can't wait to meet everyone.

Have a safe trip.

[are12c]

Just in case, I will be out riding at that time....

Hi Mike!

I was asking Larry about you this past May at the Georgia Mountain Rally. Hopefully we'll run into each other.

I'll probably only be at the FF for a little bit. I need to get a few hours out of the way Friday night as I have plans to be elsewhere on Saturday. I'll be riding in the dark one way or another, but I'd like to get to a hotel before midnight. :p

[Joecubana]

I'll be working then, so I'll be in the area.

So Randy...are they giving you sleeping space there??

Holly

I'm on that shift too, but that's noon to 4pm, too early for me to start drinking the product! ;)

[KGT1200]

I signed up Friday from 4-8, and will be there! Work the first part of the week is going to be SOOO HARD!

[sudani]

Will I get to sip while I'm serving????

[MOTORRADMARK]

I'll be there

Well Susan, many states it is against the law to sip and serve.

We figured it is good practice not to be drinking and working.

Jim

[BeemoKat]

Well, noon to 4 was a different shift! A lot more time to chit & chat than working 4-8! Always a good time!

[SheRidesABeemer]

doh, I missed the forum frenzy...come to think of it I never set foot in the beer tent. :doh
