A good place to meet is on the wide street just before the entrance of the Holland Tunnel on the NY side. 7:00 am is the time that I will be there with others. At that time of morning the traffic is still low and we shouldn't have any problems standing there.

yo nil. i think we are going to be in a lil situation man, i have to work the night before. so that means that i get out at 7:00am on the dot. so i dont mind leaving after that, the problem i see is that my *** will be burned the hell out by mid day. i will be off that night, pero we'll see. i just might have to use 1 of the rooms to get a nap or you need to drive back.
so the fellas that will meet on varick at 7 am. please wait for me. i will be there. i work downtown manhattan. so i will take my car to work and head out after i get changed. i say. since my job is located on the west side hwy, i can be there at 7.15 all willing.

On a final note, I want to keep Rotorfest the way it was in the beginning, die hard rotary people getting together to have a good time. With that being said, I have decided on not having sponsors/vendors this year. I truly appreciate the support in the past, but I see Rotorfest turning into more of a "commercial" event, than what it was intended to be.

Haha.... Good Idea... So did you get the FD tuned?
#144
Now I know this is a rotary event but since I’m not tuned I’m not going to be running my FD, but could I bring my Gixxer 750 and make some runs? I’m sure no one would mind a street bike making some runs. If that’s cool with the host’s what regulations do I have to pass? Just helmet and jacket? Or full leathers?
