It doesn't make fiscal sense to spend money on these events.

Yea, when I said that I was chastised.

God damn that shatner thing?!?!?!?!?
Too bad Buell is choosing to stay quiet about this event whatever it may be. Interest is already lost on me. I'm sure for others as well.

I think I'll go anyway. It is a chance to put some miles on the bike to see some old friends and meet new ones. Sounds like the Owner Homecoming event is going to be great. I am ready to roll!

I'm planning to be up there the first weekend in June unless the plans change.

I really feel for you guys that have to request your vacation time in advance, or even
trying to get passports for those outside the US. It's going to be hard to get a decent
turn out under these conditions. I'm one of the very few that have a summer schedule
that is open so I count myself as lucky.

As long as the weekend does not conflict with a race in Topeka(Heartland Park) or St. Louis
(Gateway) My brother Michael wants to attend too, but it is getting to the point where
he may not be able to secure the weekend off, since he can't chance getting the wrong
weekend off.

Does anybody have the phone number for the factory? I bet if we all start calling and asking when Homecoming is going to be (politely) on a daily basis, they'd get off their butts and make a decision.

No one at the factory has a thing to do with it.

The sad part is doing something or doing nothing at least the dates should have been announced.

We were, for instance, scheduling the S2 Owner's get together . . . which is done. There was, at one time, hope of making sure it does not conflict with Homecoming.

Anyway . . . I've already put in for Colorado and look forward to going. Maybe we should just get everyone to Colorado? The last 3 events we've had in Colorado were spectacular.

Rode to Colorado in 1989 for the now-defunct Americade West Rally. It was an unforgettable experience (photos and details here).

I've flown out there a few times on business since (and rented a motorcycle on a couple of occasions). GREAT riding out there. Literally "breathtaking" for us "flatlanders."

I am with Spidy, I even have a mobile beer cooler with a Uly attached to it!

One of our main concerns with the S2 Gathering is we did not want it to conflict with Homecoming. However, it years past, Homecoming (or annual get together) was not always in East Troy.

June is very busy for me, work wise, but I am riding somewhere, hell I might just head South and visit with Dr Greg.

We can bitch about it or do something about it!

I'm probably not going to make it this year.

I have weddings galore, drill on the AMA weekend (along with being a best man in a wedding that same weekend, go figure)...

It's just not feasible this year, with all the crap I have to do, and money...not going to happen unless it's here in my town, LOL

One of us needs to show up on a BMW with manufacturer tags, though...
