Title: Start of Riding Season Flash Mob - 2nd Annual
Post by: jrobinson on December 27, 2016, 10:29:39 AM
This is still in the planning stages, but we need some input. We'll give it a week then set everything in stone.

We would like to have a get-together in February for Bamarides members. This will be a family friendly event that you can bring your better half and/or the kids. Here's some of our ideas.

Bamarides will furnish hotdogs, burgers and drinks.

We want at least 4-5 people to present a slideshow/video of their riding, racing or touring adventures. This can be as long or short as you want.

We are thinking early afternoon, 1-2pm on a Saturday or Sunday. This will allow for travel time.

We are looking for a good location to meet at.  I can get the firehall in Trenton(25 miles east of Huntsville). We have a 40X50 area with heat, grill, restroom, tables, chairs and projector & screen.

If you have access to something similar closer to Bham, that may be better. That will depend on who is interested in attending.

Respond if you are interested, days that would be best, if you have an adventure to present or preferred location.

I'm interested and will attend if I can.  I can do a slide show as well.  I'm already booked for the weekend of Feb 18/19 but should be able to make any other weekend in Feb.

Ditto Klaviator.  We're still doing a reno on our house, so it's hard to guarantee I can make it.  But I'll give it my best, and if I'm able to make it, I'll bring a thumb drive with a mix of pix from my riding days in Japan.  I'm guessing you'd like participants to bring some eats/treats to complement everything that's furnished?

Depending on the date.....I could put together something from our summer riding.

I'm interested but only can do Saturdays.  Last February's get together was quite enjoyable.

I'm in. No preference on weekends or days. I've got a few pictures from the ride to Keys. Allen has a lot from Alaska.

No preference on date...with enough lead time I can put in for off time if I'm scheduled to work.

I'm interested...  Sounds like fun.  I can present some pix I took at last year's Vintage Festival at Barber.

Interested.  Especially if it's in a more central location.  Aren't there a few here in the Cullman area?

OK, I'm looking at Feb 18, on a Saturday. I'll host it at the firehall in Trenton unless anyone has idea for a more central location. If we don't come up with something in a couple days I'll post up with the Trenton location.
