    Waiting on 2 hotel quotes for the Cherokee area to come in. I already have 3 others.

    Just like Colorado, the Labor Day weekend rates are substantially higher in the Cherokee area. Harrahs Casino has something HUGE going on and has purchased 400 rooms at non Harrahs hotels in the area. Harrahs Casino Friday, Saturday and Sunday rates are $499 per night on that Labor Day weekend.

    The rates are much less the week prior, however this would force both events to occur on the same dates.

    Please be patient, just trying to make it affordable for as many as possible and logistically appealing for those that want to attend both events.
    I have discovered that in the last 2 years Hotel rates have gone up. Microtel Franklin NC wants $159 each night for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

    Trying to get $75-$80 for Wednesday and Thursday, $95-$105 for Friday and Saturday

    Final details to follow in the next 24-48 hours.

    Tentative for the Cherokee NC location. The hotel is situated in a great location with restaurants, grocery store, pharmacy and gas stations around it.

    Wednesday August 29th and Thursday August 30th, the room rates are $59 plus 13.9% tax = $67.20
    Friday August 31st and Saturday September 1st, the room rates are $89 plus 13.9% tax = $101.37

    The 4 nights combined ---> $296 plus 41.10 tax = $337.10

    As stated earlier, final details for both the Colorado and North Carolina events will be posted this weekend

    Talking to the wife now but I am looking at going to both. Thought about going to the Wing Ding in Tennessee but all I would do is spend money on things that I don't need. With going to both F6B locations, I would just ride and drink beer. My lifelong dream coming true. Also spoke with Tony today and I agree with all that he has planned! Sounds like it would be a great 2 weeks. Just glad that I'm retired and would have the time free.

    ..afterwards of course.

    I remember at the last Rally when Steve enlisted me for a beer run, in the late afternoon when finished riding (gas station next door was the resupply point). He exclaimed “your drunk” whilst I smiled and replied “what?”

    Will be a good time at both Rally’s... I plan to make both of them. Life is short. Really short...

    Will, that is long gone. When I went to the Wings Over The Smokies held in Waynesville, I rode back to Pigeon Forge to get my wife 4 more bottles!

    You should give them a call, they may ship. If not, who knows, I may just make a run...
