Okay 3 of my friends are coming up in May for a long weekend. One day we are going to go ride the shenandoah national park if anyone is interested in joiningg us. Plus I want to see if anyone down in the DC area wants to do something local, and we will travel down to see you guys. I am thinking about we will go ride the park on friday when its less traveled, then head to DC on Saturday if someone wants to do anything.
dont worry it's the safe three that are coming to visit. we will leave things just as we found them. [laugh] [laugh]
leave your guns at home boys....the politicians might get envious!
come on now people, lets show our brothers from the south some hospitality. And I promise I wont let them bring their guns! [laugh]
well...there is TheeUnholySwarmBikes,Beer,and Bands thingy while they are in town....
I know a place in Rockville that does a decent Texas style Brisket that falls apart on your fork and in your mouth...
Rhodeside has Shiner on tap....
Well if the weater permits I want to head to DC on Sat the 30th. So whatever is happening we will be there. Maybe have lunch at one location and cocktails at another later. Its your area so whatever is okay with us! [thumbsup]
There is always Asylum.
oh geeez...takin these guys on a beer tour might not be a good idear!...LOL
We could try to beat our record from Asylum to ducati_culture's house and back. Watch out for those laymen-looking vehicles on the shoulders with hidden cameras and flashes built in.

Well chris you said it so here he is... our vin diesel

We are pretty much up for anything. We just need to make sure the Texas way is brought to the DC gang!! Maybe if someone knows someone we can get an east meets south ducati shirts made. anybody know somebody?? Chris maybe william can make up a shirt like the HC ones??
Just hope to meet as many Cam'ers as possible, so please try to be free that day! [thumbsup]

Excellent!! I PM'd Gene to see if he wanted to set up a ride for sunday the 31st.
Gene emailed me back a route, so if anyone wants to join us, we are leaving from martinsburg around 9-10. anyone want to come? so for friday the shenandoah national park (skyline dr) anyone want to meet us at front royal? And for Sat we are coming to DC so all I need is a place to start and we will follow you guys!!
I don't want people to forget that we are coming into DC on Sat the 30th! So lets try and set up a day of it. When do we need to be there and where do we need to be!! plus we are doing skyline dr. on friday, probally stop at ducpond 1st (9am, when they open) and sunday Gene emailed me a route to cumberland for lunch. so if anyone wants to come on friday and sat let me know.
we just need some DC CAM'rs to show us some southern hospitality!
okay we are 3 weeks away and need some cam'ers in the DC area to show us around.
I am still cleaning up my house and thinking of hosting a something or other...
Excellent, its 21 days away. keep us posted. and Thanks!!
Alan
18 days and they will be here! So as for the 30th???
Anyone??
I'm up for something the evening of the 30th. I have a CrossFit thing I'm going to that lets out at 1700, so I'll need some time to get ready after that. After that, I'm up for whatever. Let me know what you guys want to do.
we wiil be there in 10 days. put in your ear plugs the hooligans from texas are coming!!!!
anybody come up with plans for the day yet??
come on you DC'rs my friends leave texas in a week and still no hard plans. some of you have to be free!!! lets all get together and have some hooligan fun!! we are willing to travel to you, so come on!!!
okay this will be my last plee to get you guys to comit to something, anything at all. we are willing to travel to the DC area and hook up for lunch and then hang out and see some stuff. so again If anyone is free on Saturday and wants to hang out and show us around the DC area we will gladly be coming down. If not we will just go riding around DC and check out some sights and find a local bar, pub, or whatever you want to call it and hang out. so I know Ducatista is free in the afternoon, but we need something until then. So help out some fellow duc riders and show the love!! [beer]
Zoom are you still cleaning the house? (must have been a hell of a party!!)
dc are you going to be around?
Jan how is your knee and do you want to hang with us?
dolci, you going to make it?
I should be able to have a more formal response for you Monday evening...just been slammed at work due to being shorthanded...I have been doing 2 or 3 peoples jobs depending on the day of the week...

Jen how is your knee and do you want to hang with us?
I think you meant Ian (yuu) with his knee. I do like the personal touch of calling us out individually. I'll likely come hang out at some point, but can't commit and tend to ride past without stopping. [drink] at Asylum or Zooom's place would work for me.
okay thanks for the responses!! I will keep an eye on the board to see whats happening!
thanks

Well chris you said it so here he is... our vin diesel
I hear he rides a Suzuki.... :P
I can most likely hang out / grab some lunch / etc. Saturday afternoon. Motorcycle parking in front of Asylum and lots of places with patios around. Does Asylum have any outdoor seating? (assuming it's not raining of course).
I think they have indoor seating by large windows, which open.
great! then lets start at asylum for lunch. what time is good, and I need an address or good directions!
I am up for it. I live only about 10 blocks away from Asylum. So, which day exactly and what time? I post here from time to time but have not met most people in this board. It will be a good chance to meet those who come.
If the date and time is determined, i would suggest starting a new tread that reads something like "DUCATI MEET in ASYLUM" in CAPS. That will grab people's attention. I check this board every day but had never noticed the tread. Also, if somebody is going to Wednesdays meeting at Rhodeside Grill, let everyone there know.

How does 2pm sound to everyone? (this Saturday the 30th) Too late? Too early?
2471 18th Street Washington, DC NW 20009:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=2471+18th+Street+Washington,+DC+NW+20009&sll=38.922346,-77.042545&sspn=0.000772,0.001411&ie=UTF8&ll=38.922337,-77.042238&spn=0.003088,0.005643&t=h&z=18&iwloc=A (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=2471+18th+Street+Washington,+DC+NW+20009&sll=38.922346,-77.042545&sspn=0.000772,0.001411&ie=UTF8&ll=38.922337,-77.042238&spn=0.003088,0.005643&t=h&z=18&iwloc=A)
If you zoom in the sat. view you'll see a triangle of painted lines - that's right next to the mcy parking.
Basically you're looking for the intersection of 18th and Columbia Road in Adams Morgan. If you're coming up 18th St it'll be on your right.
(and if you're new to DC, be aware the city is divided into quadrants. You want 18th St. 'NorthWest', so if you're GPSing it, double check that)
2pm seems a little late, how about high noon?? earlier the better for us. but if your a little late so be it!
and i'll start a new thread once we agree on a time.
whats the best way from martinsburg, especially the way the roads are??
Noon(ish) it is. Yeah - a separate thread might be good.
Martinsburg WV or MD? Maybe Gene is the one for a good route?
Weather for Saturday looks good too.
