Kathy R Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I have to reintroduce myself to my Thermarest. Link to comment
MikeRC Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Linda told me I have to pick her up in Moncton, NB on August the 7th and show her a few lighthouses on the Maine, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia coasts. She also mentioned something about stopping by Lancaster, NH on the 10th to 12th to visit some friends. Who was I to argue? Mike Cassidy Link to comment
Kathy R Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Good news / Bad news I got a call to move over to Roger's Motel! Someone must have canceled? Link to comment
SAMSAR Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Yes... We do have the occasional person needing to cancel due to changes in work commitments and family responsibilities and I get a note from them. However, attendance does continue to grow overall and I believe we are now around 110! Paul Link to comment
LOST on my LT Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Anybody have a room that would like to split the cost on? I have a tent as well, so no biggie, but I will have been tenting it for a week before and nearly a week after so a bed and shower would be nice. I'll be at the Damn Yankees BMW rally in Heath, Mass the weekend before this if anyone wants to ride up with me. Link to comment
SAMSAR Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 The UNrally VIII logo stickers arrived last week and we thought you'd like a sneak peak. They are roughly 3" in diameter so they fit nicely on a side case... Reflective so they can be seen at night... And Laminated so they should stand up to the weather. Here is an initial drawing of it plus a couple shots of the back of my bike for reference (see lower left corner). It's nighttime so everything is real bright from the camera flash. Everyone will be getting two of them. Just make sure you know where you want them to go as the adhesive is very strong. The t-shirt will also incorporate the logo and we should be able to share that with everyone next week. Special thanks to the Mt. Washington Auto Road organization for originally designing the inside part of logo showing the road twisting its way to the top. Cheers!!! Paul Link to comment

Can't wait to see you all WhoooHoooo. LONG time since I met you, at the first UN? Paul - The stickers look terrific! I was planning to arrive Mon, so I could stop and visit a friend in Schnectady, NY overnight Sun. I haven't seen her in years and we've been friends since 3rd grade! It's hard to not also be there Sun, what with Pied Pipers arriving. I'm sure there will be stories by Monday morning Link to comment

As always it is going to be the nicest group of people possible and the venue looks awesome. Nice going, organizers!!! Best wishes to all of you from West Africa. Link to comment
CT_Rider Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 It's been looming for a couple of weeks but now confirmed: I'm out... ...and beyond dissappointed. Link to comment
Calvin (no socks) Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Spike may have graduated a gradient or two toward the Collosus stature of Richards long lost bearings. If I'm not mistaken, that picture was snapped about 5 human years ago? Link to comment
OoPEZoO Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Spike may have graduated a gradient or two toward the Collosus stature of Richards long lost bearings. If I'm not mistaken, that picture was snapped about 5 human years ago? Notice Spike's UNrally 2005 T-shirt. So I'm guessing it can't be much more than 4 years ago. I bought his RT from him in the spring of '05, so that would have put him on his Ducati at the time. Link to comment
George Brown Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Sorry to report that people must still be dropping out! I registered on 7/17 and called Roger's the same day asking to be put on wait list. Person I talked to then didn't know how long the list was. Then someone else from Roger's called me on the 21st because they had a message to call me. Found out then that I wasn't on the list yet but would be added then and was 2nd in line. This morning my name came up - So I have Room 36 waiting for me. New front shoe installed last week. Plan to ride up Monday the 10th and stay until Thursday AM. Arroogha! Link to comment

LOST on my LT Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Does anybody know about the availibility of internet access at Roger's Link to comment
SAMSAR Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 They just put in wireless at the campground/hotel this spring. It is a vendor contract and costs a little under $8/day for access. At a minimum, I will have high speed access from my laptop in the rec hall. I am also exploring a way to connect the linksys wireless router so that others can tap in this way too. I plan to bring my printer in case anyone needs hard copies of something. Coos Motel has access included. Can't remember about the Cabot Motel. Paul Link to comment
Nice n Easy Rider Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 My wife and I are flying up to Massachusetts for the services for my nephew so I will be unable to make the UN this year. Room 10 at Rogers should be coming available. I'll miss seeing those of you who I met at the last BRR and meeting those of you I haven't yet met. Hopefully I'll get to do both either at the BRR in October or at next year's UN. Ride safely. Link to comment
Fasterpill Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I'm rooming with George Brown. I hope to head over sooner so I hope I can get something for Sunday night. Link to comment

Phil, I have a room with 2 beds starting Sunday night at Rogers Campground. You are welcome to one of them if you need it. Please PM me if you plan on using one of the beds so I don't give it away to another one of our homeless members. Link to comment
Fasterpill Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Bob, I got room 36. I am sure someone will want to pile in tho. See you there and thanks. Link to comment

RBertalotto Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 One hour ago I figured I could go to the rally and do my work from the road..........So I'm out of here! Not sure I'll be able to get into the food deal with such short notice, but I hope I'll be able to camp. See you all there! Link to comment
