BBE update - DrmRdr - 12-28-2014 10:30 PM
At the fall banquet things were left undecided so I thought I would update things. My work has decided to keep me on my current project until the end which will be around Sept. So I will be at home until then. With that in mind I have acquired a start/end location and 2 check point locations already for the BBE.
The start/end location is at my brother in-laws farm by Paynesville MN.
He has lake front property on a small lake that he keeps maintained for camping and fishing. This area is large enough to fit about 12 motor homes and tents. He has a biffy on site at all times and will spray for bugs ahead of time. All that want to camp are welcome and I have no doubt he would offer a pontoon ride for those interested. Yes the lake has fish for any wanting to fish. This could be a great weekend for riders and there spouse/family. The beach area is clean for dunking fellow riders or swimming. (Maybe I shouldn't have said that)
This is how I have it planed: Riders fee will be $25.00.
All non riders that want to come and camp will have a $5.00 fee for the noon meal.
All people staying at the camp ground and all riders will fill out a disclaimer form, this to protect the GLMC and property owner.
My brother in-law has asked for nothing for the use of his property, on his behalf I would ask for a small free will donation to offset his expense for the biffy and spray for the bugs.
The BBE itself will be the same format as other years. Start time 11 am noon meal provided and rally ending around 5 pm.
I do not have a date set yet. I am looking at the first weekend in august.
More details to come as I have them. When all is worked out I will have ADMIN post this to the proper place.

Last weekend in July?
RE: BBE update - Don Q - 01-01-2015 05:05 PM
Not that my schedule matters... hoping to compete in my first BBE. Last weekend in July, 24-25-26 is booked. August 1st and 29th also. Can GLMC update their calendar? I have to start "claiming" weekends early in the year if there's any chance to ride events. Thanks.

Dual Sport Rally is a ?...? If someone is needed to do that rally or help with it let me know.
RE: BBE update - LSGiant - 01-01-2015 08:36 PM
The Dual Sport rally was a go at the banquet I just don't have the date.
RE: BBE update - Lapchik - 01-01-2015 08:37 PM
Ah. Ok. Wanted to see it happen again, it's my favorite.
RE: BBE update - Frump - 01-02-2015 12:59 AM
I'm hoping for June 27th for the Dual Sport, but I have to run it by Blinky and Shooter.
RE: BBE update - Shooter - 01-02-2015 09:19 AM
that date works for us.
RE: BBE update - MikeH - 01-02-2015 02:04 PM
stay away from 29Aug too that's Randy & Connie's Dog Daze rally.
RE: BBE update - Don Q - 01-02-2015 04:22 PM
Is the Bonzai really the week BEFORE the Memorial Day weekend? May 24th. That would be perfect.
RE: BBE update - LSGiant - 01-02-2015 04:35 PM
That is Memorial Weekend, Memorial Day is May 25
I updated the Dual Sport Rally date and the Dog Daze Rally and Team Lyle rally are combined on Aug 29 as Mike has stated.
RE: BBE update - Don Q - 01-02-2015 05:10 PM
My fault. The calendar has the 30th as Memorial day but observed on the 25. That reading comprehension thing.Dual Sport marked and saved.
RE: BBE update - DrmRdr - 01-03-2015 04:10 PM
After talking with our host July 18th will be the BBE date.
RE: BBE update - Don Q - 01-03-2015 05:54 PM
Thanks Dave. Hoping to attend my first BBE. Knocking on wood.
RE: BBE update - LSGiant - 01-03-2015 06:05 PM
Thanks Dave I updated the Post with the date.
I am sure Frump will get the sight updated as soon as he can.
RE: BBE update - Frump - 01-05-2015 10:52 PM
I'll try to get the calender updates done this week. Also will try to get the GT Page and signup forms going for the Pirate Tour. Arrrrgh! Let me know where we are at with the Bonzai!!
