Title: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: desmoquattro on May 10, 2009, 01:40:55 PM smducman and I are road-tripping it out to Utah (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=23073.0) for WSBK round 6. After this weekend's races (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=23275.0), you know Spies and Haga are going to step it up...this should be great.
So...WHO'S IN? Anyone want to meet up for drinks or dinner? We arrive Thursday evening and leave directly after the races Sunday. Title: Re: WSBK Round 6 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: ute on May 10, 2009, 03:02:13 PM man you guys are so lucky

Post by: Triple J on May 10, 2009, 05:53:33 PM My wife and I will be there Saturday and Sunday...we're skipping Friday, but getting into SLC that afternoon. Leaving after the race Sunday as well. Our seats are at the end of the straight away. (I'll be back 2 weeks later for a track day. ;D)
We could be game for a meet-up. There's a really good brewery in downtown SLC. I'm pretty sure this is the place: http://www.redrockbrewing.com/index.html (http://www.redrockbrewing.com/index.html) Title: Re: WSBK Round 6 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING?

We should talk to johnc and try to get a meetup going. Title: Re: WSBK Round 6 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING?

We're driving from Boise. Title: Re: WSBK Round 6 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: desmoquattro on May 11, 2009, 08:02:26 AM Sounds good to me. Saturday night would probably be best as I'm not positive when we'll be getting to SLC on Friday night. We're driving from Boise. Let me round up the natives. I was thinking Saturday is optimal as well. My only concern is how insane Red Rock will be with all the WSBK hooligans in town [evil] Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Cider on May 11, 2009, 09:32:51 AM It wasn't too bad last year. I thought Squatter's brew pub was better than Red Rock, though. Unfortunately, there's not a lot to do in SLC.

Unfortunately, there's not a lot to do in SLC. What kind of food do they have? Their website doesn't have a menu. Red Rock had some pretty good food which is why I liked it. Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Cider on May 11, 2009, 10:18:17 AM Typical brew/pub food; to be honest I can't remember what I had. I remembered liking it better than Red Rock, but they're both good. I'd eat at either place any day.

The GT U race ends at 4:45 PM local time on Saturday. So how about 7PM at Red Rock? Title: Re: WSBK Round 6 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING?

Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: desmoquattro on May 18, 2009, 03:07:56 PM I think we should firm up our Saturday evening plans. I think we had some consensus around Red Rock. SO let's make it official:
Saturday, 30 May, 7:30 PM Red Rock Brewery (http://www.redrockbrewing.com) 254 S 200 W, Salt Lake City, UT (801) 521-7446 Who's in? desmoquattro smducman johnc...you in? Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Triple J on May 18, 2009, 03:17:09 PM ^^ Molly and I are in.
Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: desmoquattro on May 18, 2009, 06:53:41 PM BTW - Ducati is resurrecting Ducati Island (http://www.ultimatemotorcycling.com/2009_WSBK_Ducati_Island_World_Superbike_Miller_Motorsports_Park) at Miller.
Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Cider on May 19, 2009, 04:01:17 AM Last year they wouldn't take red keys; they wanted to see registrations. And the guy at the entrance gave me crap for riding a Monster! Elitist snobs.

And the guy at the entrance gave me crap for riding a Monster! Elitist snobs. Was that for parking on the island, or for the hospitality tent? At other races, the hospitality tent is where they asked for registration. But to park on Ducati Island at Laguna you have to go to a Duc dealer the Friday before and get a pass. Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Cider on May 19, 2009, 07:38:13 AM Dunno, I drove down :-[. I guess it was the tent. The "island" concept is an abstract one, as it's just a section of asphalt. Unfortunately, the whole set-up was about as far from our seats (and the pits) as you could get. The free water was much appreciated, though, since it was blazing hot!
Title: Re: WSBK Round 7 - Salt Lake City - WHO'S GOING? Post by: Cider on May 19, 2009, 07:43:41 AM BTW, those going through Boise (TripleJ?) should stop at MonsterParts.
