Yeah, it's a concrete corn cob. So?
One of my co-workers who rides a Buell just got himself a room for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights. How in the hell he's gonna ride that thing to Stowe is beyond me, but, as the saying goes: If you're gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough.
For those of your NERDSters who were at Wheatie's SE Ohio Ramble, this is the same guy that was there on the Buell.

So this is my A Plan and I'm going with it.
I fly back from Munich on August 15th to the Great White North and land at the Center of the Universe (Toronto). The FJR will already be packed and in the garage ready for an early morning departure on August 16th and take the most direct route I can to Stowe. August 16th happens to be my 60th birthday and I'm going to Ben & Jerry's for ice cream. I'll stop in at the hotel to see if anyone else wants to go.
That NERDS is happening is purely coincidental to my plans but I may stop in just to kick Bust in the nards.

Well, the 16th is THaPS day, so you'll have to wait to jimmy kick the Joker until he gets back to the rally central at the Commodores. Of course there may be some pleasantries and adult beverages there for a guy having a birthday as old as you.
Cross posting in this thread as it seems to have the most NERDS folks that would be subscribed to it:
The NERDS Treasure Hunt and Photo Safari Bonus List has been officially released. Click here to open that post with several important announcements about the Treasure Hunt.
Also, a gentle reminder that there is only one week remaining to place your orders for NERDS 2012 Merchandise. The cutoff date for orders is midnight Sunday July 22nd! (actually it will be Monday morning whenever I get up) We will be submitting our bulk order on Monday AM to ensure we will get the stuff delivered in plenty of time for NERDS.
So, if you're one of those folks that have procrastinated this far, time to CUT THAT OUT!! :nono: ...and get those orders in.
There will be no exceptions made. If you snooze, you lose. Sorry.

I was planning to show up Wednesday afternoon and spectate at the tech. day and participate in the evening festivities, but Deena has to work on Wednesday so we'll be riding up Wednesday evening and will probably just meet the rest of you NERDS at the Commodore.

I checked in with the Commodores Inn this morning. Only 5 rooms left. Still a lot more people indicating that they will be staying at the hotel than have actually made reservations. Not sure what people are waiting for, but if I were you (and you know who you are) I wouldn't wait any longer to get your room reserved.

I might have missed ordering by midnight by about 5 or 10 minutes. Hope that doesn't cause you any concern. My excuse is that we've been busy moving into a new house and I haven't seen my FJR in a couple weeks
as it's been stored elsewhere so didn't have anything to remind me. It's amazing with what's been going on that I remembered at all.
It's all good. But you were the last one.
NERDS Merchandise Orders are now officially CLOSED!!
Thanks to all. See you in just a few weeks!! :yahoo:

Sorry to hear you aren't going to make it to NERDS this year. I'm relatively new to the group and was hoping to meet you in Vermont. Maybe Mizz Bustanut can hire you one of those pretty masseuses to aid in your back problems. Best of luck and hope you heal up quickly and get back in the saddle where you belong. At least you still have this forum to annoy Howie. That's gotta be some consolation.

Bust don't throw in the towel just yet! I have had serious back issues most of adult life and have yet to go under the knife as well L3,4,5 Feckin junk (to use your words) A very good (alot are not) physical therapist that can also do adjustments and a good dose of meds can put you back on track in a few days. In any event I hope you get healthy and are able to get back to riding and life in general (one doc told me almost 20yrs ago that I would never work again) glad I didnt listen to him! On the rippin it up for you :drinks: and I'm shure Andy will step upDamn... I hate to have to say this

Well, since you're gonna puss out on this, looks like you'll have time to mend up and go to EOM. Make your hotel reservation now.
Don't worry. We will.
Barry,
So sorry to hear that you will not be able to make it.
We were really looking forward to meeting Mizz B.
Hope you're feeling better soon.

I just made a few late breaking announcements that may be of interest to NERDS attendees in the Pinned NERDS Announcement thread

I'm seriously thinking about coming over from cape cod for the weekend to meet some of you Yankees and to see the scenery while I'm living up here, but it looks like the hotel is booked (online anyway). Whats the best camping (or other alternative) near to the hotel?
