TPM Sept 19-21 @ Calabogie

CBR929RE · 08-05-2008, 12:19 PM

ok I have the time off work. need suggestions from you locals on a cheap hotel before I can make a final decision on the whole thing.

Jetbdude · 08-05-2008, 07:07 PM

Camp at the track.....

Don't know any hotels near by as I always camped.....

I have a race week-end the week after...... but if you're there I'll make it happen.

NorthernRR · 08-05-2008, 07:16 PM

I am hoping to make that one as well. I normally stay at the track, the nearest hotel would be in renfrew and it'll be a holiday inn I think. I think that there may be a few others I know coming to this one as well, should be a good turn out if it all comes together.

You are more than welcome to stay at my house before you head back home after the track, as long as you like dogs...

Maybe a year end track weekend/ BBQ at my place?

CBR929RE · 08-06-2008, 02:14 PM

Camping ain't really my thing.

I'm not really a drinker so I'll pass on the "rhum" but I'm sure we could figure out something to do. I don't have to be home till wednesday (24th) afternoon for work.

so I guess I gotta sign up with TPM.

ND4SPD · 08-06-2008, 02:20 PM

You could roll like bwhip: Boston, Massachusetts RV Rental Locations

Jetbdude · 08-06-2008, 04:06 PM

Wow, no camping and no rhum eh? What kind of a trucker are you?!?

NorthernRR · 08-06-2008, 04:16 PM

hahaha I am sure that we can figure something out. No rum no problem(for you anyway)

I wish. That place is like an hour out of the way and it also adds more cost, but would be cool as hell.

I got that off a sign for an autobody collision place I drive by in NH when I'm working. Every month they put up something funny. Past ones were "Why does Piglet smell so bad? because he plays with Pooh all day" and "If 7 out of 10 people suffer from an STD do the other 3 enjoy it" and they cursed the Patriots with "How many Giants does it take to win the SuperBowl? we'll never know"

NorthernRR · 08-07-2008, 04:36 PM

whooo hoooo...

I just checked, I'm good to do these days. Can't wait to get there.

Talked to 2 other friends and they are "going to be" coming as well... but I'll beleive that when I see it.

NorthernRR · 08-07-2008, 06:11 PM

Didn't the hondagal's say they would come up to this this year?

CBR929RE · 08-09-2008, 01:01 PM

NorthernRR · 08-09-2008, 02:13 PM

more like convoy. looks like we'd cross paths in Syracuse NY.

NorthernRR · 08-09-2008, 02:53 PM

get it arranged and bring him along too...

Jetbdude · 08-25-2008, 10:39 PM

They are running 4 groups

I don't remember seeing that there before. what the hell is the 4th group, cars?

HondaGalToo · 08-26-2008, 05:05 AM

We can't make it. I'd love to ride Calabogie, though. Work is getting busy, so I won't be able to take any time off from now till December, other than the days I'd already planned for early this year.

TPM often runs four groups around here. Sometimes 3, sometimes 4, seems like it's always something subject to change. Dunno, I've never ridden with them.

that sucks, th more track time the better... maybe we can run two each?

Jetbdude · 08-26-2008, 07:46 AM

I don't really care for TPM because there is too much rider per group, I will care even less if they over book and run 4 groups.

according to their site you can only run within your group, no riding down. kinda sucks cause I know and trust you 2 to ride "down" with me and not create any problems.

I've never ridden with them before so this will be my first time. The discount for doing all the days basically paid for the membership so I figured it was worth it to try it out.

CBR929RE · 09-08-2008, 01:21 PM

I was a bit late and just booked a room today. that guy on the phone had an accent just like yours Rob.

2 weeks, I can't wait

NorthernRR · 09-09-2008, 06:12 AM

hahahaha, nice, wait... I don't have an accent...

Where are you staying? Why not just stay at the track with us. JBD told you about the squirrels didn't he.
