Thanks, CharlieMac.
I have the dates on my calender already. Just waiting to make reservations!
I am thinking about going around to the north one way, and go on the ferry across the lake the other way. Does one need to make ferry reservations for that time period, or do they always have room?
MP
I would recommend making reservations. I have looked into it on a few occasions and they have been booked up on most of them during the summer months. |

Sounds like we need to book rooms thru F6Gal?

That's great! This would be our first Inzane. Our IS is a 2000 model and this is Inzane 10, so that has to mean something! We have a couple biking friends that are Valkers too so do you get a discount if you bring someone and if it's your first Inzane and if it's Inzane X and our bike is a 2000 and ...........  |

Only tickets I have ever got have been in the car. Seem to get one every 5 years or so, is that significant? Never had one on the bike, not that I havn't deserved one on several occasions!!!  Anyways, it's more relaxng to just cruz and become one with the surroundings, but only to a certain extent!  |

I have not been to one since 2001 in Zainesville OH. I'm realy excited about making the trip and seeing all the great rides. I hope that I find some folks making the trip and coming through the Kansas City area on there way.
This time I'll be a little less spend happy. I believe the guy was called Mountainman who pin striped my bike. Very nice work. Then I found a cool set of valocity stacks for that extra visual effect. The next morning I bought a set of driving lights that mounted to the original turn signal mounts. Oh ya found a nice throttle lock I just had to have.
Maybe this time I'll just look .....

I highly recommend a visit to the Black Star Winery on the Lelanau Penninsula, if you are into wine. In particular their Late Harvest Reisling. MMMMMM! |

Okay, who let Blackdog and Meyer get to cross BIG MAC on the blacktop? We did it a couple of years back and the only lanes open were the metal grates. Left a "V" in my Corbin from gabbing it with my butt cheeks! I'm with Black Dog, take the time to make the lap up around the Wisconsin side.
OBTW: Blackdog, yes,I still have my Valk. If I'm still verticle, I plan on making next years Inzane.

I was just on a road trip through Michigan  and stopped into Shanty Creek Resort and did a tour of the hotel & rooms  . Very nice. Staff guy was very helpful and is looking forward to our arrival. Roads in the region are great, nice & curvy, scenery is also great. Can hardly wait for July.... its gonna be a great ride in and out, as well as the events l'm sure......and from my home, here in Fort Frances Ontario Canada, its not that far so hopefuly we Canadians will be there in large numbers........I plan on buying a pie at the banquet - sure hope the 'pie auction' is gonna be on the program again..

Hi Bill...we certainly hope we do have a large Canadian turn out eh...since Michigan is practically surrounded by Canada...even our language is similar eh...every few years I lead a ride around lake Superior and we meet up with our friends up in Thunder Bay what a great ride that is....anyway looking forward to meeting up with you and our Canadian brother's and sisters...

Would it be possible to post the Hotel cost. I had looked on there Web site and prices were high I know we get a better price as a group but how much better? This info would help in budgeting for the event. I want to do all the rides I can this year and take the long way up to Mich. and longer way back.

I'm not certain we've agreed upon the final prices as yet, but they'll likely range between 90 and 120 per night for a room, depending on which room you get and when you register.
Soon. I'd like to avoid receiving InZane money until after the first of the year to keep things simpler for us.

...Hi Bluedragon....M-22 is about 115 miles long and starts about 40 miles from ground zero...you can ride the whole thing or just parts of it depending on how many miles you ride a day and how many stops you make....

I have read the posts and it looks like it is a must to be at Inxane X. I am relativly new to this site and have only had my Valk for a little over a year. I have learned alot. I am trying to sell the idea to my sister so her and her husband 00 IS will go with me and mine. From what I have read it will be a good time but if you have any hints for a 1st timer please let me know. I have no idea what to expect. Thanks TBONE

I volunteered to work a few hours when I went to my first inzane. You get to meet all the head D00ds and if they put you at the ticket-selling table you get to talk to practically everyone who walks in the door. -Mike |

1) You get to meet a lot of fellow valk riders and put faces to names 2) Tech sessions you can learn a lot more of the workings of the Valk 3) You can see what others have done to their's and get ideals for your's 4) There are some vendors so you can get more goodies for your's 5) It is a family type gathering that you could bring any family member to. 6) There are so many other things that I could be here all day telling you about, but basically it's a good time with friends |

My account must have been deleted due to inactivity. Sorry I won't be able to make Inzane X in Michigan. Already committed to a meeting in Panama City, Florida with my Dodge Ram SRT. It will eat up most of my summer vacation time. Hopefully next years Inzane will be further south (Johnson City again??) and I can make that one.
Have fun all and ride safe...
Tom
P.S. 2003 Black Valk standard, won 1st place in stock class at Inzane VIII at Johnson City, also won award for least miles on the bike, and award for trailering the shortest distance to Inzane. Don't ask me how many miles I have now... less than 100 more than when I was at Inzane VIII! Will get the time to ride when the kids grow up, in the mean time, the bike is waiting patiently.

The first thing you do when you get there is look for this tall, handsome guy named G-Man. He will take your room and registration fee and squander it on alcohol, wacky weed, and the North's plan on keeping the South down. You will then be escorted over to Smokin' Joe, his right-hand man Detn8er, and their lawyer OSS (of the firm Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe) who will fleece you for the rest. Then it's a few great days of riding, telling tall stories, sharing cigars, and getting damn glad to know ya! |

Anyone coming via U P, in for treat. I Ran through Upper Penisula on my way to Western Canada. Beatiful country, people are so friendly. Can't wait to go back. Going over the Mackina bridge with Wife, tent, and other luggage on the back, was a real gut check moment. Heavy traffic , no help.

Hello All,
Just watched Apolo Ono win his 7th medal - incredible! Anyway, are you looking for a list of people who will be attending Inzane X so that you will know how many rooms you will need and so that any of us who are late signing up will know that we have to find another place to park our iron dragons?
I know that it's only February, but I've been looking at snow for weeks and I need to obsess about warmer better times...
Enjoy...

Hi VP....the Inzane webpage should be up and running soon, from the last info I had the staff is working out final details with the Resort...I expect the site to be up soon... Ono winning his seventh was real cool...it seems like he has nerves of steel , he always seems calm, I really think he is a class act .... |
