3rd Annual Florida Rally
UPDATE: This years rally will be on November 13-15
I know this is a little early, but I thought we could get some ideas down on paper. I'm going to steal cHarley's idea from last year. I will keep an ongoing list of ideas in the OP so they will be a little better organized. Also, I want to divide up some of the responsibilities to a core group to help with the rally. If you are interested and are able to help, please send me an email or pm. I have already been contacted by Allison from the hotel. She is ready to begin planning. Please post your ideas. Remember, nothing too big, just a little better.

Hi GP. Do we have a date yet? I would think that would be the first order of business. Biketoberfest in Daytona id 10/15 - 10/18. I wouldn't think that we would want to go with that weekend.
Anything we can do to help let us know.

I think last year's dates, the 7th-9th of Nov. worked out well for the majority of the members. After all the October MC events, and before the holiday season starting with Thanksgiving. The one conflict was that Roscoe's Chili Challenge was the same weekend and it is scheduled again this year for Nov. 6th-8th. Maybe we should consider doing Ocala 2009 the weekend of Nov. 13th-15th to avoid the conflict so people can do both events.
Set a date and Slowryder and I will be there and will be more than happy to help with any logistics if we are needed. I still think we should cater some BarBQue at the motel on Sat night and all eat together there and all the awards and photos could be done at that time. Can not wait. Ya'll need to watch out this year because Slowryder has been practicing and is a shoe in for Slowrace Champion again this year!

Okay, there are some possible dates on board. Nov. 6-8 or Nove. 13-14. I will start a separate post to vote on those dates. I also have a nomination for BBQ on Sat. night with the awards. Did everyone like the slow race or not? I will edit the OP.

This is a good idea getting this out early so we can iron everything out well in advance. One thing I would really like to see this year is a list of possible group rides and a printed map with them clearly outlined. A lot of people last year had no clue where they were going so they just followed someone else.
Another idea is to bring much more money for poker. I could really use the extra cash being so close to Christmas and all.
Not sure how everyone else will feel about this but I wouldn't mind having an account or something that we can contribute to in advance to cover expenses (BBQ, beer, hookers, etc). Some people ponied up big time out of their pocket to make it work so well last year. It didn't feel right that someone bought the keg, then when it ran out someone else ran to the store to get more on his own dime. If there was a paypal account or an address to send it to I would pitch in now. besides if we did it this way we would probably have a lot more money to make it a better party. That doesn't mean everyone has to contribute to come. Just if you have it, send it, if not, then don't worry about it.
