None! It was fantastic! Don't change a thing! I can't imagine it being any better! The whole thing!
Even the rainy days seemed to coincide with my need to rest or get better acquainted with people. The workshops were great, the camaraderie was fantastic. Loved the hotel, loved the Lucky 13. Black hills was an amazing location! The folks I rode with were awesome! Loved meeting folks and the regular greetings from everyone I'd pass at the hotel or on the road. I even got to ride the poker run the day before the poker run because they needed actual miles between stops! Enjoyed the group rides to the park on Saturday, church with Dean on Sunday, the group ride to the university and the block party. It was just a lovely, lovely event from the moment we left on Thursday June 4th to the moment I hit my driveway on Saturday June 13th.
Thanks to everyone who worked so hard putting this together!
Thanks to all who attended!
It went by so fast. But what a memory!

No need to be so NEGATIVE, nogrey...  Haha...glad you had a good time! Maybe we can get more first timers to the next one. A lot of work went into putting it on. The VRCC Staff is very good at putting these events on but it takes a TON of hours and preparation to pull it off. |

Very well said, it was good to meet you and to see that Whooray is in good hands with proper supervision!
I only have one regret -- that I didn't get out for at least one day with Strider's group. At the pace they were keeping that's probably all I could have handled! Them boys know how to pack it in!
But where is the nogrey Productions academy awards worthy video??? Can't wait!

Ditto that. I've been looking forward to it even before Inzane started.  |

One can certainly tell that much, much effort was put into making this event happen, as well as keeping it going. Everything was handled with so much professionalism, even when there was a hitch, as when it rained on poker run day, and I'm sure there were others as well. It was seamless. I have to say that I was so impressed with the staff at the hotel and lucky 13 as well. Always pleasant, downright friendly.
As far as the video, it takes weeks, sometimes months to edit and produce even a few minutes of video that's worth watching. I don't release them until I like them. This one is going to be especially tough because of the amount of video and photos taken (3 HD cameras with high res, slo-mo, etc). It just takes lots of time. I really appreciate that there are those of you who enjoy them. That's the incentive in the first place for me.
Thanks a bunch, I have already started!

Agreed! Especially for us that couldn't make this one.  Side note: I understand the amount of time and effort in putting together a decent clip. Too many times I have almost completed a project and at the end of the process the software throws me a wrench or an error and I've had to start over...  Your time, efforts and sharing of your NGP videos are much appreciated. |

As an InZane virgin I can only agree with nogrey. A truly awesome time was achieved, met some top notch people, made new friends, looked at some smart bikes, ate well, drank well, even managed to do some motorcycling!!! Let's see where next year takes us..... |

Two years on the Valk and I too was a first timer. A grand endeavor with a great outcome. I met lots of riders and covered many of the roads in the Hills. I've been to the Black Hills multiple times but this was the first time in the wind. Thanks for a great event!
