Meet In The Middle .. Southern Group Info.

Smokinjoe-VRCCDS#0005 · Thu 18, Aug 2016, 17:19:40

Folks that is riding into Clinton in The Great State Of Tennessee for the " Meet In The Middle " on Friday Sept. 2 . I will have my wife's soccer Mom van with a designated driver to take folks from the motel to Harrison's Bar and Grill and back across the four lane just down from Wally World . If possible be there by 7:00 ( est ) . This will allow anyone wanting a adult beverage to do so without getting on the bike. If you get to the Red Roof Inn after 7:00 ( est ) and no one is around they will be at Harrison's across the road .

Added info ... Calisthenics will be at 3:30 a.m. with jumping jacks , sit-ups, etc. followed by a 5 mile jog before we roll out for the ride at 9:00 a.m.

Friday September 2
Red Roof Inn
141 Buffalo Rd
Clinton , TN 37716
( 865-457-9070 )

Be sure to say you are with the " Meet In The Middle " group so they will group us together as much as possible.... Rate is $68.28 tax included for a double... If you want a single it will cost $ 80.06 tax included ..... If I was coming alone I'd just pay for a double room and save some buck$.... Get reservations made ASAP since this is a holiday weekend .

I've used this motel and the Super 8 next door on several of my rides and never a problem with anyone messing with the bikes whatsoever ... Clinton is a small town and everyone knows just about everyone has a gun and they will shoot you if you mess with their property

Smokinjoe-VRCCDS#0005 · Sun 21, Aug 2016, 19:50:44

This has always been one of the better rides I've put on until last year when we had two bikes down with ( 4 ) people getting hurt . Hoping for the best this year . Time is ticking away and this ride is coming on . If you want to ride with some of the best the VRCC has to offer this is one of those rides ... Doesn't matter if you come with the " Northern Group " or the " Southern Group " the folks you share the wind with are some of the best..... Get a room and come join us

Took a nice ride today on the Valkyrie but to be honest the heat this summer has just wore me out by the end of the day. Had to just sit in the pool for a few hours when I got back.

A good client's case is being tried (nonjury) on Friday Sept 2. If the Judge comes to her senses and clears her calendar I will be a last minute addition. Whats 600 miles to the house of a friend?

Ive got the motel info saved just in case as even though I aint one of the cool kids, I sure enjoy y'alls company.

Smokinjoe-VRCCDS#0005 · Mon 22, Aug 2016, 20:27:55

Ok Tom.. Anyone else want or need to save some $$ ? My friend Larry needs to split the cost in order to make the ride.

Bighead · Mon 22, Aug 2016, 20:44:48

Oss, you're definately "Cool" enough to ride with the northern group if you'd like (and I'll bet that we're closer to you than 600 miles).
