That's great! It's always nice to exceed expectations, in a good way. I'm glad that these owners see how full of S*** the last owners were in their view of us.

Red leader to blue leader, bag pucks we require bag pucks !

WOW folks, this is just beyond cool. I'm a newbie to VFR's and to this site, but I just may have to show up next year. It's not that far up the road from where I live in North Georgia. I've been looking through the pictures, and all the gray hair sure makes me feel right at home!   :biggrin:

The only fire was in Baliey's eyes this year
#6
So if I go next year, will there be any slow-azzz old farts to run with or do I just lack the requisite skill-set to do the dragon??

Very nice that even the hotel management knows what kind of class act this bunch is.  =)

OK Boss, you can put back the letters now.
#15
They must not have met Timmy?
#16
That is very nice to hear.  Just as a VFR is a sport bike masquerading as a station wagon, I guess we are delinquents, posing as upright citizens.
#17
Great Letter.....really glad to read This...We musta' been Waaaay Better than "Usual"... :biggrin: ...Nah, great Buncha' Folks, even the "Rowdiest" among Us... :fing02: ...Guess I need to book a Room for the T-Mac 2012 Event soon........See Ya'll again next year, and several of You the rest of this year at various places..... :fing02:    :beer:

Everyone should be proud of this... there was no lack of fun and it shows that fun can be had without being destructive or disruptive.

I thought it was cool how some of the letters showed back up Saturday night.

Reading this letter makes me think I didn't miss much?

Just kidding! Wish I was there but I'm too far away to drop in for a day (1000 miles) and this is the time of year when I can't take days off.

Perhaps next year I can hire some help to run the shop for a week....
#33
Makes one wonder what the regular clientele is like. :comp13:

Ha!  Nice!  I saw the VFRD, but assumed they had more than 4 letters on there.
Wish I didn't have such a long ride back and could've stayed up later Saturday night and left later Sunday.  

I really am proud to be a member of the finest motorcycle forum in existence.

#47
Several of us stayed until Monday morning (NavyHelo, Coastie and me) and we had a "Safety Meeting" with Terry on Sunday night, sharing some Domino's and Budweiser with him.  He and his wife Tammy REALLY got a kick out of our group and how the whole banquet and swag give-a-way evening went so well, how we cleaned up after ourselves (mostly!) and our overall polite and friendly attitude.

In fact, a Harley fellow pulled in around 9 that night, looking for a room.  We invited him to join us for a refreshing libation after his ride in from Alabama, and Terry proceeded to tell him all about VFRD!   :biggrin:    Oh...and the sign still said "VFRD" when we left on Monday morning.   :fing02:

:laughing6-hehe:   Good job to all the attendees!!  I'm really going to show up at one of these TMAC's eventually,  just when you least expect it.  Must see if I can do something about this 'class act ' status we seem to be projecting...   :happy:
