[QUOTE="twowheelnut, post: 309844, member: 10"] Summers are hot. Springs and Falls are iffy. Winters, for the most part, are cold and wet. Whadaya gonna do? Besides, if it's in the summer months and typically centrally located, biased toward any given 'FO', then you'll always be hot and/or hot and humid... (NAFO is in late July mostly to accommodate the good folks at Yamaha whose schedule opens for us the week following the GP races.) Thinking that the geographical center of the Lower 48 is in central, north Kansas, with daytime highs in the 90's for July (and I'm betting that they are humid highs, too), I really can't see avoiding the heat. Of course, my committee involvement beyond NAFO-1 is not likely to be in the same capacity, if any at all. For me to speculate beyond next year's event is rather pointless and unwarranted. Planning the next event will be left to the folks who form the NAFO-2 committee. If I might suggest this: We are a gnat's hair away from finalizing the details for the venue for NAFO-1. Once that task is complete [I]and[/I] we fill out the balance of that committee, we can then establish the basic committee for NAFO-2 (drawing from the ranks of the NAFO-1 committee for starters). Those individuals can then assume the task of dating and assigning location to NAFO-2, and so on. [/QUOTE]
