GFRicky Posted November 17, 2016 #1 Posted November 17, 2016 I have to book my vacation time next week and looking for dates of rally's. I make the trek to North Carolina this year and was thinking about Georgia in 2017. I see the Western N.Y. date is set. So anybody have some dates for me?
Freebird Posted November 18, 2016 #3 Posted November 18, 2016 It's not yet in concrete but I'm thinking the weekend of June 10th for Maintenance Day.
OrlinEngh Posted November 18, 2016 #4 Posted November 18, 2016 We will be having our 6th Annual Maintenance Day here in WI, June 24 Orlin
XV1100SE Posted November 18, 2016 #5 Posted November 18, 2016 I need to talk with MarCarl... but Ontario rally in July. Possibly Thursday July 6th to 9th. Think this would tie in nicely for people taking time off for the National holidays. For Canadians...July 1 is on the Saturday so some will have the Friday off, others the Monday. For our friends in the States, July 1st is a Tuesday. Other option is for Thursday July 13th to the 16th....or July 20th to 23rd.
uncledj Posted November 19, 2016 #6 Posted November 19, 2016 I was thinking of having a get together at the cabin in North Central PA the same weekend as the Sinnemahoning Rattlesnake Roundup. It's kind of a big event around there, and it's based out of the local Sportsmans Club, about 3 miles from the cabin. I didn't see any set date yet, but it's usually mid-June, which may conflict with Freebirds MD. We'll have to see how it plays out, but that's what I was thinkin'.
krispy Posted November 19, 2016 #7 Posted November 19, 2016 For Canadians...July 1 is on the Saturday so some will have the Friday off, others the Monday. For our friends in the States, July 1st is a Tuesday. I never knew Canada was so far east of the U.S. that you get July 1 three days sooner than we do. Who knew ??????? Sorry, couldn't resist.....
GFRicky Posted November 19, 2016 Author #8 Posted November 19, 2016 Thanks ALL !!! My job has changed SKID and I don't think I will be able to get a holiday pick to get to Georgia. After a great time in North Carolina I was planning on it. But who knows....maybe it will be available when my pick comes up. Hope to make some events and see you guys again !!!

CMCOFFEY Posted November 20, 2016 #10 Posted November 20, 2016 We need some rallies or meet & eats over on the west coast or Nevada, Utah, Arizona area.
Marcarl Posted November 20, 2016 #11 Posted November 20, 2016 MarCarl's VentureIn will be May 27th, Brantford Ontario, as per usual. Event # 12
pope3567 Posted November 21, 2016 #12 Posted November 21, 2016 We need some rallies or meet & eats over on the west coast or Nevada, Utah, Arizona area. Sounds like you're volunteering to host, or organize a get together. 🤔😆 I agree, we need something out west. I was thinking of hosting a Venture West in or around Salem, Oregon. Think there would be much interest?

I was thinking of hosting a Venture West in or around Salem, Oregon. Think there would be much interest? Venture west 2014 was pretty big. I was in Texas for venture west 2015 and in the middle East for VW 2016, so I do not know who ran the last two or how well they did, but I am going to VW 2017 come hell or high water. Well maybe not high water, driving through a flood is not fun. 2014 was in Oregon and it was a blast. I love the weather.
beastwood Posted November 21, 2016 #14 Posted November 21, 2016 We sure do need a Venture West 2017! We just need to put our minds to it, and come up with a good plan. I haven't seen Puc and some others since 2014!
Holly Posted November 21, 2016 #15 Posted November 21, 2016 Pork in the Pines, will be Sept. 1st thru the 4th, !
pope3567 Posted November 21, 2016 #16 Posted November 21, 2016 VW 2015 was in Yreka, Ca. Good turn out, a lot of folks from North of the border. It was 104 degrees (end of June) so a tad warm, but a good time. VW 2016 was in Castlegar, BC, Canada (Krusin the Kootenai). Very good turnout, a little rain (early July), but overall a real good time and beautiful country. No decision or talk about 2017, so open to anything. It never rains 😎 in Oregon in July 😉 and some nice roads for day rides. Not volunteering, just sayin'.
saddlebum Posted November 21, 2016 #17 Posted November 21, 2016 Burlington Ontario 6th annual M&E Jan 7th. Not a rally but a good way to meet some of the members. INFO: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=480&day=2017-1-7&c=1
jakester Posted November 21, 2016 #18 Posted November 21, 2016 There is always that little rally in Sturgis SD the first week in August every year. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/images/icons/icon6.png

It's so cold up here that we need it 3 days sooner.....
tomephil Posted November 22, 2016 #20 Posted November 22, 2016 Something out west in July or early August would work for us. Were planing to do Castlegar last summer but had a family situation. Sounds like you're volunteering to host, or organize a get together. 🤔😆 I agree, we need something out west. I was thinking of hosting a Venture West in or around Salem, Oregon. Think there would be much interest?
utadventure Posted November 24, 2016 #21 Posted November 24, 2016 We need some rallies or meet & eats over on the west coast or Nevada, Utah, Arizona area. There a lot of good roads around Southern Utah, including Zions National Park and Cedar Breaks National Park. Dave

Woody Posted December 19, 2016 #23 Posted December 19, 2016 getting time to put in for Vacation, do we have some more dates? hey Lewis what about Vogel?
eusa1 Posted December 21, 2016 #24 Posted December 21, 2016 my Root Beer run is always the last Saturday/and sunday in June Oglesby/ Dixon Illinois
Flyinfool Posted December 22, 2016 #25 Posted December 22, 2016 I do a M&E in Milwaukee WI every mid March. The weather is normally not conducive to riding but it is nice to get together and at least talk to like minded Venturers about the upcoming riding season. Always get to meet a few new faces every year.
