mini-muffin Posted January 23, 2009 Author #26 Posted January 23, 2009 They were all in that area Dan. Whoever gets their reservation first post your spot. Then we can surround ya. Margaret
kenw Posted January 23, 2009 #27 Posted January 23, 2009 We were there for the day last year and would like to try to make it again this year, If only to eat at the German restraunt in Black Mountain! If we do we'll be staying in a motel again.
Venturous Randy Posted February 26, 2009 #28 Posted February 26, 2009 Just bumping this back up. RandyA
slick97spirit Posted February 26, 2009 #29 Posted February 26, 2009 Sure hope the wife and I can make it but it's just too early to commit.
Venturous Randy Posted February 26, 2009 #30 Posted February 26, 2009 Sure hope the wife and I can make it but it's just too early to commit. Ken, at this time I think we have a lot of folks that are afraid to commit to just about anything. I hope you can make it as this is just a low key, kind of extended M & E, with some great riding roads. RandyA
painterman67 Posted February 26, 2009 #31 Posted February 26, 2009 Mini my memory sucks. Wich sites did you say to go after? We will more than likely reserve a place next week. David
Venturous Randy Posted February 27, 2009 #32 Posted February 27, 2009 Last year we had sites from about 19 to 25 by the lilly pond. This year I want # 22, which is one down from where Laura and I were last year. Also, these sites are plenty big enough that more than one tent can be set on any of the sites. You may have to pay a slight fee. RandyA I think that last picture explains where the wine went I bought at Biltmore.
KAWoodworth Posted February 27, 2009 #33 Posted February 27, 2009 Since I haven't camped in a tent since I was a kid, I played it save and made reservations at the Super 8 Motel at Black Mountian. Strange thing is they already billed my credit card for the full 3 days. Most places don't bill until you check in. Hope I don't have a hassle over this. I printed off my credit card bill and willl be taking it with me.
Yammer Dan Posted June 24, 2009 #34 Posted June 24, 2009 Things don't look too good now for this Dougie Howser says NO. I didn't get a spot reserved but who knows....
RandyR Posted June 24, 2009 #35 Posted June 24, 2009 Blackjack has said that the north Georgia M&E for that saturday may meet up with the mini-asheville people. So I'm not sure if that also means we're staying for saturday night dinner.

I had thought about making Grandfather Mountain one of the suggested rides as last year we went to Chimney Rock, Mt Mitchell, Cherokee and Biltmore House. There is just so many great rides in the Asheville area. RandyA
Blackjack Posted July 1, 2009 #38 Posted July 1, 2009 Blackjack has said that the north Georgia M&E for that saturday may meet up with the mini-asheville people. So I'm not sure if that also means we're staying for saturday night dinner. I apologize if there is any misunderstanding, Randy. Actually, this is a "Joint Venture", so anyone that wants to come up from GA for this event is more than welcome to do so. Since this lasts several days, no GA group ride is planned, as everyone can arrive and leave whenever best for them between Wednesday and Sunday. I, myself, will likely leave early Friday morning and head home Sunday afternoon, so anyone that would like to ride together then is welcome to send me a PM so we can make arrangements to get together. Camping is available at the KOA and there are motels nearby for those that can stay overnight. TERRY
mini-muffin Posted July 1, 2009 Author #39 Posted July 1, 2009 Super 8 Black Mountain 101 Flat Creek Road Black Mountain, NC 28711 US Phone: 828-669-8076 This is the place most folks stayed at last year. Seems they all liked it because they are staying again this year. There are other places I'd advise sticking with Black Mountain too close to Asheville and your talking big bucks for a hotel room. Plus there's the KOA East where some of us will be camping. Plenty of tent sites always available. Those of us tenting it will be in D section. Margaret
raceman62race Posted July 1, 2009 #40 Posted July 1, 2009 My wife and I will be arriving from GA around Friday at lunch time and we will be leaving Sunday. Looking forward to this event! I think we are staying on site D-20
krome rose Posted July 1, 2009 #41 Posted July 1, 2009 Bittersweet news, y'all. My sister and her beau are driving down from Cape Cod to see us on the weekend of Asheville on their way to Florida. Wayne and I are so sorry we won't be able to make this trip. Hopefully, we will see you at Vogel...all family members have been told our vacation is in Georgia this year! Someone buy some Biltmore wine! Brandy

Venturous Randy Posted July 2, 2009 #46 Posted July 2, 2009 Randy, is this for Asheville, NC? Yes it is and now that Brandy is not going to be coming, we need some more entertainment. Are you busy for that time? RandyA
