7th Annual Borscht, Burn and BBQ - Castlegar BC July 27, 28 and 29 !!

[opus]

One tent spot, please.

[Croak]

Tent spot for me too this year...I've installed a Ventura rack on the Tuono so I won't be living out of a tank bag this trip.  

[endo]

Oh yeah!  Tent spot for me again, please!!

Sorry i have been distracted and missed some comments.

I usually start an accommodation thread in early June.  Veefer, you've stayed at my house before so passed the test as you are welcome again .

Oh, sorry for the thread jack!  

Well I do try not to be too much of a caveman.  

Animal sacrifice on the BBQ is great, but I do my best to walk upright and not grunt too much the rest of the time.  

That's very generous of you, thanks. I didn't want to ask this time because I figured you'd already have your hands/yard/house overrun with guests and figured you may still want some space for your family too. At least last time, there was only one leather clad motorcycle hooligan on your porch, not 30.  

I have booked my holidays off work at that time, and it looks good due to the fact that nobody else has done so during that timeframe, so there are no conflicts. Looking forward to some food, folks and fun!

2 local riders are in if that's ok.

Me on a red 2005 ZX10R and my pal Mat on a 2011 Aprillia RSV4. See you then!

Put this Michigan guy down as a possible with tent space.    The area is high on my want to ride list.

[bubba zanetti]

We will have plenty of space.   That is a long ride from Michigan !

Nice to see some additional local interest as well

Well, I now have all the vacation time in the world available.  First day of retiredment.  And really, it's only three days away if I'm in Michigan.

So Bubba My friend and I are obviously local so we will head to yours from Nelson. Are you just going to PM with your address and what time meet up on friday?
We prolly won't be sleeping over unless i get hammered and use my leathers as a sleeping bag.

I am guessing more details are to follow, but basically we would like to hang out for 3 days but just riding back and forth from home, so i guess we will need your address and your friends by Arrow for the BBQ.

Cheers man

Anytime after about 3:30 on the Friday.  I included a Google map at the bottom of the first post in this thread. Just click make map larger and you will see the location and address.  We will have a map available of how to get to alphabet man's cabin to hand out on Friday night.

That's how I do it...just ride from home.  Means I don't "partake" too much, unless my wife comes too and we bring the cage...

Ok sounds good.
Just waiting for these clouds to go so i can go for a rip. My friend and I went to Mainjet yesterday for the Honda Demo Days. I took out the CB1000 which is bloody fun and the new 1000RR, it was nice but i preferred the CB1000 by far.

[Oxblood]

I'd love to come again this year. Though, due to the lack of trees at Bubba's, this year I will bring my tent instead of my hammock.

[Oxman]

Well i got this run on my date book and if all works out i shall see you all there.

Be great to meet you !

So ...     This year I am a bit unclear as to how to let folks know that they have a place to stay.  

We have some room here.  Balconies, for foamies for about 5 and room for 10 tents. Also, a few bedrooms, couches and even a laundry room that makes nice. We have room for you. But bring a sleeping bag.

Instead of first come first served. Let me say that any couples have first dibs on bedrooms. Anyone else can make due with floor space, couches etc. Galo has dipbs downstairs for 'his' couch. Just cuz.  


I think we will ask the same money as last year for the food and fun. But details will follow shortly.

We (those staying at my house) ...  will be able to take only about 10 people, in addition to our family,  this year to the alphabet cabin via van/vehicle and back to my house.  If you cannot ride there, lets talk about it well in advance and rent a van or find another solution. ... but we are unable to take as many this year.  Hey, the road is good, gravel ... but good. We can certainly take your gear to lighten your load. And it is not that difficult a ride. But shuttles back and forth are not on or our responsibility. ....  Sorry.

[ToadRide]

Looks like I'll be there, Bubbs. Put me down for an xxl t shirt. (haven't gotten any smaller.) I may be just a little premature in saying this (it's 5:15 in the morning cause I can't sleep) but today everything for me (finally!) comes together. Legally, financially and rideally. (Rideally?) Makin a deal on the NTX today and will build my travel plans around being in the area for your event. Will be good to see you all. As per usual I would love to do my snoring beside the lake at Daves'.

As an overflow...if anyone needs it..I can offer floor space only, but it's free...garage space...and, uh, a couple acres of tent space, but it'll be up to you to avoid the horse manure

15 minutes from Bubba's, road is twisty...oh, and a half block or so of dirt road at the end...
