Me and my wife want to go to one of the 3 big buell events and was wondering which one is the best one to go to. Like which one has the most events and the most fun to be at and biggest turn out. It will not be this years events as I am in Afghanistan but next year we want to make it to at least one of them. | ||

Homecoming is great for the people and hanging out with the factory folks. March Badness/Buelltoberfest is great for the riding and the people. Those two events are the best in my book. | ||

Homecoming! You not only get to meet the most Buellers gathered in one place, you also get to visit the factory where they are made! This last year was my third straight Homecoming I attended and each and everyone has been a fun time. | ||

Dunno... you MIGHT consider our hilltop mob at Laguna Seca each year for MotoGP and AMA races. Last race, Shawn Higbee, Mitsu and Marianne camped on the hilltop with all of us. FUn time each year... but it's in CA But like the others have said, Homecoming is quite the gathering. | ||

Homecoming first. Buelltoberfest second. March Badness is great, but it's usually rainy. | ||

Homecoming for the people Buelltoberfest for the riding. | ||

As long as there's no riding of people. | ||

Why do you think I slept outside on the porch during the first Buelltoberfest?  | ||

Why do you think I slept outside on the porch during the first Buelltoberfest? Because we gave you moonshine and you couldn't move.  | ||

Why do you think I slept outside on the porch during the first Buelltoberfest? And yet you were the first to pay your cabin fees for Buelltoberfest III! For me, Buelltoberfest is the best event for the south east. The weather is usually better than March Badness and no one has to work the "event". There are no demos or freebies, but yet we all flock to the north GA mountains for a fun-filled weekend. Can't speak for Homecoming, but from the pics posted it looks like fun. Maybe one day we'll get to attend. Any event that includes riding and BadWebbers is bound to be fun! | ||

The following is my opinion. Yours may vary. March Badness (MB) or Buelltober Fest (BTF). The riding is great, the people are great and there are good times to be had (even in the rain)!! For example, MB this year was considered a rain out (though I did find dry roads every day there). But we had quite the impromptu cook out/ get together in the woodshed at TWO. Good food, good friends and good drink! Homecoming is also fun. You get to meet Erik and the Elves, tour the factory, watch some racing and meet with Buellers from all over the world. You might even get to see Erik and the Thunderbolts play! Haven't been to the WV Rally... Yet. But I hear the riding is good and the people are some of the same that go to MB and BTF. If I had the time, I would for sure try and hang out with the west coast Buellers for Laguna Seca. It looks like a lot of fun! Track days and racing are the bomb. I generally keep a low profile and let my riding speak for itself. I have suprised quite a few people piloting the "tractor motor" around the track. They are even more suprised to learn the bike is nearly stock and still has a belt drive! In the end, nearly any Buell event will end up as a good time. | ||

In late April will be Slay The Dragon III at Deal's Gap in NC/TN. It's not an official event from the Buell company, it's just Buellers who come to the area and ride the Dragon, Hellbender, and Cherohala Skyway. I'm hoping to see a good crowd next year. We've been staying at the Iron Horse Campground in NC which is a real nice place. | ||

In spite of the BOB, the best thing about Buell is the people. I didn't buy a Buell expecting to gain any friends, but I have been blessed with knowing some of the best people on earth because of Buell. It doesn't really matter which even you go to if there is more than one Bueller at the event, you will have a ball! | ||

The best Buell event to go to is the one that you can make it to. | ||

i had a buell event once, in a storage shed, with a hott chick, on my xb9r. i think that rates as my best buell event ever... | ||
| Paint_shaker |
No rice =  LOL | ||

i had a buell event once Don't you mean a BROOL event? brool brool \brool\ (n.) : a low roar; a deep murmur or humming | ||

Well since it looks as though March Badness won't be any longer, my choice is BuellToberFest. Maybe this year we'll call it CubeToberFest  | ||
| Froggy |
CubeTheTubersFest sounds better | ||
| M2nc |
Cubetoberfest I like the name only if you leave Kristi's blast alone. It's a classic you know. | ||

Weather seems more likely to be ideal in October. Last time it was great for camping and cooking out. At MBVI all I heard was tortured screams in the rain one nite after a group viewing of 2girls1cup. Glad I was away, across the creek. (cue pics from A Clockwork Orange of the drooge with his eyes pinned open) | ||

"CubeTheTubersFest" I'll be specifically avoiding that one.. I've only attended homecoming the past two years, but both years were great and yet very different. There is good riding around Milwaukee - you'll just have to find a local Bueller who's willing to show you the area. And DEFINITELY ride Nature trail (or road?) whatever the name is.. it's an eFin roller coaster. I haven't been to any other Buell events but would love to make it to one in the SE some time in the next couple of years. From the pics I've seen the riding is absolutely superb. btw, if you attend homecoming - this could happen! :  | ||

Hey, That's the guy that scribbled on my bike. | ||
| Pkforbes87 |
He scribbled on a couple of mine too! I love when people ask me how I got him to sign it, and I get to respond, "I rode to Milwaukee and asked him to." | ||

There is good riding around Milwaukee - you'll just have to find a local Bueller who's willing to show you the area. If you come to BuellToberFest, you don't need anyone to show you where a good road is. You have to stay in the parking lot to not ride on an excellent twistie. | ||

Id attend your "CubetheTubersfest"...IN PROTEST.  March Badness Five.... I rode ONE day due to my "testicular shrinkage" in inclement weather on REAL mountain roads...Saw an awesome fiddy race...Got a dream job offer that I couldnt take, unfortunately...Saw a man proudly sporting a pink thong...Bathed in a rather "odiferous" outhouse...And it was one of the best times Ive ever had, all because of the people. I cant wait til I can attend another Buell event. |
