        Randy;
        Do you know of any other motels/inns in close proximity to the Colonial?

        Thanks.

          There are still rooms left at the Colonial. We had 16 rooms booked as of Feb 15th. Add Rman, that's 17 out of the 25 we had set aside. If the clerk gave you a problem, try calling back mid-day Mon, Tues, Wed and speak to Julie directly. If Julie isn't there, find out when she will be and then call her back. Others have had similar experiences. I even didn't get to meet her in person when I was there last weekend! One clerk told me she'd be in on Sun, then on Sun I was told by another that she wouldn't be back 'till Tues??

          On the other hand, if you want to stay elsewhere, there's a Holiday Inn Express and a Super 8, both less than a mile away from the Colonial.

            For those interested, here is a link to the route maps for the rally. I posted them in the Route Selection thread:

              Due to my recent purchase of a 2nd bike, I will not be able to make it "out east" this year. I would have really liked to be there. As it turns out, I will be in Maine in early September on a non-bike vacation, price of the 2nd bike included a 35th wedding anniversary trip to Maine, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. (You married guys will know how this happens.)

              Hope all who attend have a great time. Post plenty of photos.

                        Sounds like an episode of that show, "Rules of Engagement".

                          Do any of these routes go into Canada? As in, would I need a passport to participate?

                            None go into Canada but a bunch of Canadians are attending!

                            At this point in time you only need proof of identity to cross the border by land. If you are flying in or out then you need a passport!

                              SCORE! So something as simple as a driver's license or social security card would do the trick, then? I'm gonna have to seriously look into this... even if it is a 500 mile ride just to get there! Maybe if I decide to go, I could meet up with MadBiker (and Brent) and we could ride up together.

                                Drivers license , birth certificate, social security card, the more you have the easier time you'll have crossing. I have a passport which makes crossing a breeze! Hope you can make it, we had a blast last year!
