This was my first rally, I had just as much fun at the motel,meeting new friends as I did riding. Hade a great time, good food, a few drinks, I think being at the motel is as important as the rides. Either way works for me, will see you in Ocala!!! David

I like the tradition of the November date, but being a public servant if I take the Sunday off before veterans day I give up a couple hundred dollars in free overtime. But its important enough to me to give it up to hang with my friends so whatever you all want is fine with me.

I have already put in my vacation request for November.
If a date change needs to be made, I can try to change it, but no guarantees.
I'm in the crowd that thinks that most of he fun was hanging out with folks and having fun....even if it was dark out side.

The gov't does not select when the sun rises or sets. We decide when to wake up. Want to ride in the dark? Fine. Most people at the Rally are usually gone by the time Barbara and I get up and around anyhow. The holiday weekend ads a day for me. I am not sure if I am going this year, but I put my vote towards November anyhow. I might bring Barbara just for the poker match.

I kind of like the November weekend myself but whatever the majority decides, I will do. I would sure hate it for the ones that already have their vacation days set at work if it was changed to October.

I voted for Nov...I don't know if I will still be here in Oct or Nov....but Oct is biketoberfest.....too hard to get 2 parts of vac off in the same month.

No one is really in charge here but I suggest that we just leave it alone and keep it on the three day weekend and away from biketoberfest. Steevo can not change his vacation so that is reason enough by itself to leave it alone. If someone wants to bring this up again at the rally itself this year that would be better since everyone would be available to vote in person. I am sure lots of people have not even seen this yet and folks need to get on with their plans.
It might have been useful to have an option which said 'don't mind either way'.
Could somebody organize the weather for this year so it's not as cold as last year, even though I wasn't able to make it I know it was cold. Some of us are southern softies.
Anyway I will be attending this time around.
