Anyone heading to Deal's Gap? Here's the website for the rally: http://www.womenssportbikerally.com/ I'm looking for some folks to ride from Asheville, NC and maybe room with.... sounds like a lot of fun!

Hey when is this? Are u riding or trailering your bike there? Let me know it sounds interesting. I live in raleigh nc.

I plan to ride from Asheville - hoping to get out of town Friday night, but it might be Saturday morning. It'll be my first one, so all I know is what's on the website. Sounds like a blast, though! Let me know what plans you cook up - mine are pretty flex, don't have a room yet, probably wouldn't turn down a trailer lift, either!

I do have a enclosed trailer that will hold 2 bikes and a jeep to pull it. How far is it from here? I work until 630 on fridays but may be able to switch with someone. It sounds like fun. I am new to riding. I have been riding for about 8 months and love it. My fiance is deployed so I dont have anyone to ride with and would love to meet some other female riders in the area.

Raleigh is about 4 hours from Asheville, and Fontana Village/Deals Gap is about 2 hours (?) from Asheville, but you go through Asheville to get to Deals Gap. I just found out that I have a mandatory training :( until 5pm that Friday. If you were trailering up there Friday night, I'd love a lift (but leaving Raleigh @ 7pm sounds rough unless you're a real night owl), and would probably ride myself home on Sunday afternoon. I haven't checked out the accomodations, really - just assuming I can still get a room or something. I probably ought to get on that! How long has your husband been deployed? When do you get to see him again? My heart is with you! [image]local://upfiles/19231/1F1ADCD2F9CF43ADB2AD0A20AB099614.jpg[/image]

Well I am going to try and trade with someone so that I have friday off...but I have to ask around first. If I can get the day off then I can time it so that I am going through asheville around 5 or 6. It would definitely help to share the cost. My fiance has been gone for 5 months and he will be back in September. I absolutely cannot wait!! By the way nice bike..how long have you been riding?

You guys are so cute and happy! I'm sure you are counting the days until September.... I started riding dirtbikes in 2004 and got my first streetbike, a 1971 Triumph Tiger, in 2005. It had tons of style, but I could never get comfortable on it (though I am very proud of myself for mastering the kickstart thing!) and knew I wanted a better-handling bike, so I got a 250 Ninja last spring and upgraded to my f4i a month ago. What are you riding?

radbox -> RE: womens sportbike rally 8/24-8/26 (8/10/2007 4:33:26 AM)
I have a 05 cbr 600 f4i. My fiance bought it for me last christmas. So that is what I learned on. It took some getting use to ( and a few bumps and bruises) but I absolutely love it! Now I am addicted to it. I am going to ask around and see if I can find somebody to work that friday. I really want to go the more I think about it!

twisty -> RE: womens sportbike rally 8/24-8/26 (8/10/2007 4:58:17 AM)
I love mine too - best I've ridden. Let's go ride!

radbox -> RE: womens sportbike rally 8/24-8/26 (8/10/2007 5:19:46 AM)
We will definitely have to ride....just let me know when and where and I will be there!
