Who's going to the Cleveland Bike Show?

[R Doug]

The show will be at the IX Center on Jan. 26-28.  For more information, the offical web site is as follows:  http://motorcycleshows.com/motorcycleshows/

I plan on attending the show and thought it may be a good chance to meet fellow ST.N'rs.  So far, I know me, WVRidgerunner, and Velofish (Region 6) are going to try to be there on the 27th.

What about you?  And what day to you plan on attending?

[maddjack]

Looks like sat for me,unless work spoils that plan then its sunday,trouble is I won't know till that week.

to far for me

[BABOU]

I am planning on being there when the doors open at 9am.  Are there plans to meet somewhere?

Doug, you might be able to ride that FIZZY if the weather holds out.

[R Doug]

Yea, global warming is working out well for riders.  

Actually, WVRidgerider has offered up his plane and piloting services to the two lucky people who responded to his email the quickest.  I was lucky enough to check my email 10 minutes after he sent the invite to 1/2 dozen of us.  

So, it'll be a 40 minute trip for us.

Cool CMH_Sprint =, this will help make it a lil easier for me to go  

[R Doug]

Eleven people so far?  That's it?  

Should we try to pull of a ST.N meet and eat lunch at the show?  If you're like me, you have to eat sometime.  

[skibum]

Yeah, I'll be there on Saturday.

[Guy]

Me and my pops are gonna try to go. Leave sat. am and hit the show in the afternoon, spend the night, hit the am sun. show, and make for home.

For those that are planning to attend the Cleveland show ONLY and buy tickets at the gate, let me know. I have a couple $2 off discount tickets. It may not mean a lot to you, but to me 2 bucks is 2 bucks.

[Allan]

I'm definatly going. Not sure what day though.

[fasterbusa]

So far, and if it all works out with everyone, I will be bringing 3 others to the show at the IX Center on that Saturday.

This show has traditionaly been much better than the one that comes to the Detroit area.

Well of course, there are more exhibitors, cause no one fears for their life in Cleveland, as opposed to Detroit.  

[mrfun]

I'll meet for lunch, say when and where.

[skibum]

I'd be glad to meet up with everyone during the show.There's not much in the way of choice in food inside the inside the IX center(burgers, hot dogs, nachos,etc.) The last time I was there was a year ago, for the same bike show. Also, another exhibition, the NARI home improvement show, will be going on in an area opposite of the bike show. With the two shows going, traffic around the access roads is pretty thick. I know you can get a hand stamp to get in/out of show, say, to take something out to your car, but there are no in/out privileges in the parking lot.
          Anybody care to meet before or after the show? There's a Bob Evans for breakfast about 10 minutes away from the IX center on Snow road, and another family restaurant just a couple minutes away from that. Or we could also meet afterwards. Just down the street is a good Mexican restaurant called Nuevo Acapulco, a Japanese sushi place (Ahashi) or a brew pub, just to name a couple.

I'll be driving back from Florida to NY earlier that week, so it's doubtful I'll want to drive 300 miles to the IX and back the following weekend. Otherwise I would.

[EZ OUT]

I plan to attend. Usually get there Saturday evening. Too bad we don't have some kind of button or badge that would identify STN'ers. I've never met one in person  

[Blue Dragon]

I'll be there ! ............not sure what time on saterday at this point though?.......
