Heart of America Maxi-Scooter (HAMS) Meet-Up

Maggie · Scooter Rider Number of posts: 19 Points: 355 Registration date: 2009-10-08

I was asked by someone what they could bring to the rally... the answer is a healthy appetite for the Friday Night and Saturday Morning meals hosted by the Gateway Maxi riders of the St. Louis Scooter Club! There will be St. Louis styled pizza and toasted ravioli on Friday and on Saturday morning, Gooey Butter Cake (invented right here in St. Louis)

So far here is a map featuring states if attendees!

Do we know the location of the "Friday Night" location ... just in case we do not arrive before 20:00??

honda_silver (Bill)
Opalsboy (Gary)
jdeereanton (Kim and Dale)

Folks that have mentioned an interest:

boatswain
TheScootist

Am I missing anyone else? This is starting to shape up nicely.

Editted:
Gary (Opalsboy),

I'm guessing we can deduce from your most recent experience that you are probably not going to attend HAMS?

So as it stands now - folks from this site that are planning to attend:
Chief Rider (David)
allhondascoots (Chuck)
honda_silver (Bill)
jdeereanton (Kim and Dale)

Folks that had expressed an interest, but now can not make it:

DennisB (Dennis)
boatswain
TheScootist

Am I missing anyone else? This is starting to shape up nicely

Kim and I are planning to get in the evening of the 9th and still plan to ride with the SilverWing600 site group on the 10th. Any one else?

Dale... I am scheduled to have my cast removed June 9th. Dr told me yesterday that he did't want me riding that soon after the cast is off. Not sure where my phscky (sp)will be after being confined to a 4 wheel chair. Looks like I will miss this one. No one is more unhappy about this than I am. I may drive up for a day just to meet some of the guys,but, that is a long shot too right now. Mad

I had an e-mail exchange with Maggie this morning. She would like to take those of us arriving early on a city tour (on our bikes) of the sites of St. Louis. I like the idea, will be a less stressful way to work out the kinks after a long ride day and pre-rally rides.

So for all who are attending and plan to get there early - the 10th is a Tour of St. Louis on our bikes.

I am so looking forward to this.

Woo-Hoo!

I spoke to Maggie this morning. This is shaping up to be a fun time.

The ride on the 10th is sounding like fun and the SLSC has it's regular meeting on the 9th, we may have a chance to get in a pre meet and greet.

What time is pre-meet and greet??

I may do an Iron Butt on the way to HAMs. I am thinking of leaving the evening of June 8th (just in case leaving extra day if needed). Chief Rider will meet me in Winona Mo ... we may change the route since he is from the area ... he would know all of the good routes to ride

I don't know for sure when the SLSC meets, but a casual look on their site makes me think 6:15pm or so. As for location, I think they are contemplating meeting at or very near the host hotel that particular Wednesday evening.

Hey Bill the route that you have planed from Winona to St Louis is a good one lets stick to it. I am scheduled to get off this boat on the 2nd and today they ask me to ride over a week

and I said no way.

I can here that Swing calling my name all the way from Missouri. HAMS here we come.

**jdeereanton**

Getting so much closer. I've been on a hectic work schedule and have plenty of volunteer tasks to keep me full time engaged. Sometimes it seems like I work two jobs... I'm looking forward to this trip.
