Sexagenarian Posted November 4, 2013 #1 Posted November 4, 2013 Being the new 'kid' on the block, is there ever one in Minnesota? If so, when? If not, How do you organize one? Is it worth the time and effort to get one scheduled for next spring? Input from those that have done these in other areas of the country would be great.. Input from those interested in attending one in Minnesota would be great also..
Flyinfool Posted November 4, 2013 #2 Posted November 4, 2013 The organized part is easy. If you have it they will come. So since you said in the spring, in MN, that would mean July? Try not to plan it to close to other events, like Dons MD or the WI MD.
Black Owl Posted November 4, 2013 #3 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) The MN Maint Day is held in conjunction with the Pork in the Pines Pig Roast over the Labor Day long week end. Next year that will be Aug 29 thru Sep 1, 2014 That being said, if you would be interested in putting something together earlier in the year that might just work. Edited November 6, 2013 by Black Owl
Bubber Posted November 4, 2013 #4 Posted November 4, 2013 Sounds good to me, I would come. I have some ideas as what would help and some needs. PM if you like or call may work better. Bubber
OrlinEngh Posted November 5, 2013 #5 Posted November 5, 2013 June 28th will be our 3rd annual Maintence Day here in Wisconsin, We have had alot of fun doing it. And looking forward to this years. If you have any questions you can PM me or give me a call. Orlin
TDbiker Posted November 5, 2013 #6 Posted November 5, 2013 Sounds like a good idea. I would do my best to make it, as I never seem to be able to make PIP over Labor Day.
a1bummer Posted November 6, 2013 #7 Posted November 6, 2013 It would jut be another excuse to go or a ride and see some friends and make some new ones. Who could argue with that? Bill
Sexagenarian Posted November 6, 2013 Author #8 Posted November 6, 2013 Located the thread on the last Pork in the Pines... Dang, I wish my bike had been put back together by then as I would have tried to make that one.. I am assuming it is always on Labor Day weekend so I have my Calendar marked for that one in 2014. Have been getting some PM's on possibly holding a meet and eat/maintenance day in the spring. Thanks for the feedback on making sure there would be no timeline clash with anyone in neighboring States/Provinces who have already grandfathered their event in. Seriously considering pursuing this further. Any other thoughts are always most welcome!
bongobobny Posted November 6, 2013 #9 Posted November 6, 2013 Yes it is every Labor Day weekend and it's a great time! We are going to try to make it next year as well, you have some great members in the area!!
