Clarify, if you could please ... is the Facebook RSVP just a headcount pending the opening of registration on the official webiste, or is the Facebook RSVP now serving as registration ?


Thanks, Polianarchy.

That's right, it's just a headcount tool! We've been struggling with the website, so we STILL don't have pre-reg up & running, sigh. This way, we can plan how many shirts, patches, wristbands, etc we'll need.

Thanks, Polianarchy. I'm not a Facebook user, but would still like to give a heads-up ... should I just wait for the actual registration ? I'm also a member of a group that plans to attend ... I'll pass the Facebook link along to them.

No worries -- just wait until pre-reg! But yeah, if you could pass it along to your group, that would be great. Who & how many are y'all?

We're the WHSC ....

http://www.meetup.com/wildhogssc/

Come on out for a ride sometime ! Check the group site, ask BeachBuzz (who in all likelyhood saw us at New Holland), or just give a scream if you're so inclined.

It's still a little early for a headcount from us, as the RSVP list is still open. I've posted the Facebook link for those who use it on the WHSC site.

Ah, okeh. I went to a couple of rides/happy hours with y'all a few years ago when Taylor was first forming the group. Hope to see y'all there!

I've definitely got the time off work. Sabrina may come with me, but if she doesn't, I'm sure SOMEONE will want to travel across the Appalachians for a rally :)

ATTN:
ALERT:
FYI...

we're still working out the kinks on the website, which is why I haven't spammed every single internet with the announcement that pre-reg is live. STUPID COMPUTER MACHINES! Basically, the site has been tested positively with Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, and IE7 & IE8, but for the fifteen percent of users residing on this green & blue orb who STILL use IE6, you're SOL. We're aware of the problem, and we have several overseas young cousins working on it. Sigh.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AT THIS TIME.

Only in the 90s? I'd better put the liner in my jacket! :lol:

The time/temp marquee on the side of the BAMA plant said 116 at 5:30 this afternoon. Have you picked up your spray bottle yet?

Dear Southwesterners,

Please bring your weather with you, as I am very homesick.

Check the schedule on the website for specific addresses, but basically, we meet up Friday evening and park along the sidewalk around the club, Kung Fu Necktie. There will be talking & drinking & dancing & picking up your rally pack & wristband, then as late as possible (midnight-ish), someone (probably Tedford) will lead a ride to South Philly for cheesesteaks.

Basically, it's an average Friday night out on the town, but with scooters. Lots & lots of scooters. See ya there!

You guys really know how to throw a party. We had a ball!

I encourage everybody who didn't/couldn't make it this year to put next year on your calendar NOWNOWNOW. You won't regret it.
