I know this is early, but if any of you plan on going, I figured this topic could serve as a meetup.  Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I'll be there.  $40/person for all three days is a great deal and this is one of the biggest motorcycle-affiliated swap meets I've ever been to which, for me, is worth the price of admission alone.  If this year is anything like ones in the past, it's definitely worth the trip for the auction and sheer amount of bike parts and whole bikes for sale.  Maybe this trip we can meet up at a restaurant where we can actually hear one another!   Crazy Smile

Yes I will be there again this year. Should be in Thu night of Friday mid day and will be camping there at the track. Have not missed it in 7 years and with any luck I will not miss it for the foreseeable future.

My daughter and her husband are talking of going and they might drag the old man along. My son in law has several vintage Japanese motorcycles and when he shows them he usually gets some award, which he did in Saint Augustine just recently. I do know under the vintage circumstances it is a trailer for the bikes.

Does anyone know the time of the Century Race. I have looked on the website, but the link for the schedule just takes me in a circle without saying anything.

I canceled my hotel yesterday; can't swing the $$ this year.  Sad   It'll be more awesome than usual, I'm guessing.  Bigok

I want to say it's always held in the afternoon on Saturday. Probably like 3 or 4 p.m.

Looks like I'll be doing a day trip over on Sunday due to some Saturday obligations...is there anything on Sunday worth seeing or is everyone packing up to head out?

I live right down the road, relatively speaking, from Barbers.  I will prob roll out there for a day.  I take it for granted since it is in the back yard....but it is a world class facility worth of respect and awe.

Too bad we can't coordinate a time/place to meet for an informal st.n meet/greet.  Anyone interested????

I am new to this forum, it would be fantastic to meet some of you lugs in person.  Upset I missed on on the NC ride that was done this past month.

I will be taking the wife and kids. The wife has been interested recently in classic Triumphs so she should enjoy this.

Can anyone comment on whether the Ace Cafe upgrade is worth it?

I see no reason we couldn't coordinate a time/place for a ST-N meetup.  Thumbsup

I'll probably ride over Saturday morning with my ZRX-riding buddy Paul (and possibly some other ATL folks) and MAYBE stay overnight or ride back that night.

  I have been for the last three years and will be going again this year. Not sure of day/days and times yet, trying to get everyone on the same page. I am south of Atlanta so if anyone in the area has times set in stone let me know and I will see if I can get  our times to match up or maybe meet at a time and place once at Barber.

I'll be riding on 4 wheels. My friend from ATL is picking me up at the airport, and we are heading over together. Thanks for the offer!
