Bonzai 2016 Update

Information Bonzai 2016 Update
Entry form has been sent to Frump and should be posted soon!!!

I have had a few people volunteer but I could use a few more!!

This years Bonzai should be easy enough for a new rider or the rider that just likes to wander around and not take it too seriously....BUT I have a very nice twist for the more experienced riders, that are going for the win Big Grin

The great thing about this years Bonzai is I plan on having the majority of the Boni in what I like to call "The Sweet Spot" for riding in WI Big Grin

South and west of I-90/94, east of the Mississippi and north of IL Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

I don't think there is a bad motorcycle road in that area Smile

Wherever I may Roam... I wander...

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
I'm looking forward to it, that is my favorite area to ride.

Is there a hotel yet?

If it's not reproducible, it didn't happen.

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
Was filling out the entry form. I must be doing something wrong as my class choices are "team" or "novice". I can only imagine the rally with 2 classes.

Yes there will only be 2 classes but I need to change it.

It should have been experienced and novice, must have been the Crown or the multi-tasking that night Big Grin

Updated entry form has been sent to Frump.

I had visions of drawing names from a hat to create teams. Nothing would surprise me with Cruz'n as the Rally Master.

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
OHH!!

That's a great Idea...I'll have to remember that one Big Grin

The only problem would be when the FJR guy ended up with the Connie guy and the FJR guy lost points because the Connie couldn't keep up Wink

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
I don't have to worry about that. I'm probably wrong ,but I believe every GLMC "Road" Rally I have done has been on a Suzuki.

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
Well after some rethinking I will have a few Photo Boni for the Bonzai Rally. They will be limited and I would imagine they could all be taken with the phone on your camera's Big Grin

I don't want too many pictures...it slows down scoring!

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
I spoke with the Day's Inn in La Crosse

http://www.daysinn.com/hotels/wisconsin/...l-overview

the other day they can't wait for us to arrive. They were a little concerned due to the lack of rooms reserved as of yet. So please get your reservations in SOON. I believe there cancellation policy is 24 hours in advance.

Boni have been picked, I have a few for my scouters to checkout.

There will be about 50 Boni on the Rally sheet, with only a few picture Boni.

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
Shirts are ordered, for those that sent there entries in Smile

Food has been ordered , for those that sent there entry in, this one I can probably change Smile

There will be exactly 50 Boni. Smile

I wasn't going to do any combos this time but since Charles worked so hard to update his Free-ware for combos I threw a few in Smile

There will be a riders meeting Saturday night at 8:00 PM...It's not mandatory but who knows it might be beneficial to attend Big Grin


I look forward to seeing everyone in a few weeks!!!

As Tim Fredrick would say

BONZAI!!!!!!!!!! Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
Just paid my entry fee working on that entry form thing.....

I just have to remember to bring food and t-shirts since they will not be provided for lazy Iowegians. Wink

Looking at getting there late Friday night and maybe doing a little Grand Touring Saturday if anyone is around? Or bloody Mary's at the hotel bar? Smile

Don Q. should we form a team?

RE: Bonzai 2016 Update
Careful Don, I think shooter is a cyborg or something. Doesn't seem to be effected by weather or lack of sleep... Has alot of power ports on his bikes, maybe one is for his cyborg batteries
