Get ready for the biggest rally yet..... Our goal is 125 trucks. Now BIGGER 150 SSR's
Sure wish I could get sometime off to make this Rally! Sadly, on a pipeline project, if they fill your seat with another Operator you never get it back... My hope was to have the project on schedule but as the norm, several months behind...
2 1/2 years and I can retire and then you'll all be seeing A LOT of HUAW!

I realize that this is not in the spirit of the event but is anyone having their SSR shipped to the event and then flying in? As much fun as it would be, I don't have the time to drive down & back from NorCal so I am considering this as an option.
Alternatively, if not able to bring the truck but still want to come meet folks and see beautiful trucks, when should I get there?
We are flying in for the event just to busy this summer to add another road trip in so far have driven close to 7,000 miles this year, unfortunately not all in the SSR. Plan on going to Dallas-Green Bay game that Sunday after the Rally, want to see the stadium be one more thing off the bucket list. I dont think anybody really cares if you drive, fly, walk, or get smuggled in as long as you show up and have a good time.:cheers
Alright, you talked me into it. I have booked the Hampton and Mrs. PokerGuy & I will be there Thursday. Hopefully I can find a rental that is not too plain:eek
I will do the signup tonight when I get home since I'm obviously working hard right now :skep
I SEE THAT WE HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE LIST OF ATTENDEES SO I GUESS YOU RECIEVED OUR CHECK AND REGISTRATION FORM. WE WILL ARRIVE WEDNESDAY AND BE STAYING AT THE GARDEN INN. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS , CAN'T WAIT !!!! :cheers
:blur:
I am not sure how many of the NorCal group you have met but maybe one of the couples would be willing to split up for a couple days to drive your truck one way so you would have the experience of driving cross country but only have to drive one way. OR NOT. Just thinking out loud. Looking forward to meeting you in Denison. There have been those that have flown in to other rallies and rented a car. Just get there and have fun meeting the other Fanatics you have dealt with here.
DINERMAN:
is there a schedule of events for the meet ?
My reservation is from Wed. Oct. 4th to Monday Oct. 9.
If there isn't anything scheduled on Sunday Oct. 8, I might relinquish the lovely Denison Texas to the natives and proceed to Margaritaville casino in Louisiana. ......

Made reservations 3 Oct - 7 Oct at the Choctaw Casino then leave for Dallas after the banquet Sat night. We have a date with Green bay Sunday afternoon. Then hopefully Wilson Phillips in concert at the State Fair that evening.
Then on to New Orleans for a nice round of jazz and a couple of bigniets.
arty:cheer:sunce:Cruise to Dallas. and watch the game. I could only afford Standing Room Only but what a party. I hope to win some dough at Choctaw. If not, then I will not go over my limit. Got to pay for gas, too. Oh, and I have to feed LIPSTICK, the wife. She loves gambling more than I do. We still need to reserve a room in Dallas If we have enough we might get a group rate.. Who's in?arty:cheers
Cant't wait to meet up PokerGuy. We'll be at the tables somewhere. Choctaw is only 20 min away or 15 depending on how much head wind there is.:ssr::whistling:
I know 150 SSRs was the goal; and we are getting close!!! Thankfully we have a couple of newbies that have signed up to come without their Rs (Good on you!! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!). But we really need to set our sights higher. What about 200 SSRs!?!?
Beat the bushes, talk to your friends and let's get some more newbies to join this amazing celebration of this magnificent machine. The 2017 International Rally is going to be the BEST RALLY EVER!!
GGJOSSR will be attending the international this year. We will be booking hotel shortly and sending in registration. I know of another couple who plan on attending as well. Family issues have kept us from committing until now.
OK---check and registration in the mail today. Reservations at the Hampton, but--only Friday and Saturday night. Planing on getting there early Friday morning.?!
Wow panic city !!! saw where it was indicated no reservations left but called to verify if I had made reservations earlier. I did not but I have a room now. Whew !! Anxious to go ! Yahoo !!
Not Refundable ??? Are you sure ??? Most Hotels only have a 24 hour Cancellation Rule. In 2015 we only had 2 that couldn't come and they said "Keep the money, just send me my T shirt" Oh well, all's well that turns out well.
