Default 2009 Planning Meeting

When is the best time to have a March planning meeting? The only March date I know there is a conflict with is the 1st and 15th? Be nice to shoot for the 14th (weather permitting) in Webster Mass. Maybe we can rescue a cape cruise before the Solstices statr cruising P-town.

March 14th sounds good to me. But keep in mind that Phil can't do Saturday.
Do you think we should incoporate our meeting with the show that TVT is attending in CT on the 14th?
Ill start keeping a list of attendees and post it in this thread.

Darn, I'll have to leave the cartoons of Phil driving his Chevette at home for this meeting. I'd rather see you pull up in a Chevett than a FORD!

Gee, now what will we talk about if we can't talk about Phil, behind his back, at the meeting? I guess I'd better get working on an agenda!

1) Albany, NY/Western, MA cruise?
2) Cape Cod cruise?
3) Nove Scotia cruise?
4) CT cruise? (Mystic)
5) Shirts, hats
6) Emblem
7) Member titles and duties

Voila!

#8 rally? Only mentioning it because it was posted but nobody seemed interested then.

I have booked my trip for six days to Nova Scotia, If anyone wants to join us we leave from Bar Harbour to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia on the 15th of June and come back on the 21st . We are going to stay one night in Bar Harbour and then leave from there on the ferry called the CAT. The whole trip is under $1,500 for the two of us and is going to be great fun.
Anyone needing more info about it can PM me for details and you must get it through AAA to get the discounts. About the only thing you have to pay for after that is your food and a KILT Rick

Hey Guys.
First off it was a pleasure meeting you all. Some new faces and some old (very old ).
About a mile up from the restaurant I saw a brand new Lamborghini. Wow! Triple black and what an awesome sound.
I hope we can all get a few runs in this season. Looking forward to seeing you all again.
Changes made to signature-Thanks guys for the honor.

Well there, Phil, or should I call you, no xfire in sight guy!!! I must have been the old guy but that's OK, at least I had my ride with me, not parked in the garage gathering dust.
Actually, it was a great day, the 140mph run was worth the price of admission at least for me. It was great meeting the two new faces and hooking up again with the other founders, our new "charter member" will recieve his plaque when hell freezes over and the club shirts and hats may be coming soon.

All in all, I think we got a lot done aside from the BSing. I really am happy that we had this chance to get together again before the season to help plan some rides that everyone can enjoy. It's always fun when we do that, sorry we missed Robbie, perhaps next time. Until then, keep the shiny side up and the wheels turning as fast as you can.
Rick

Thanks for the warm welcome. It was great meeting all of you and I look forward to some fun cruises in the Crossfires. Hopefully we will keep the speeds under 140 and the ball busting to the max.

The only time Crossfire Tail goes below 140 is when we pass a sheep farm
