Guest Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Dave...I'm hoping to enter the Alpenrose Challenge a few days before for the pursuit...maybe we can have two vegans in it. As for you Zack...get yourself a bike ASAP because the hills we'll be riding are gonna be ridiculous if we're near MT. Hood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Has anyone bought their tickets yet??? I'm waiting for a few others to take the plunge before I buy mine. Of course I'm going...I'm still just a little weary about the date staying where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveNoisy Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Tandems - eeep! Potter - ooh..Alpenrose..that's actually one of the events i'd like to enter! There'd be three vegans, as Per would no doubt be doing the pursuit as well (i think he's down under 5'10!) He's a vegan rider there in Portland. Pursuit isn't going to be as big of a priority for me this year, i'll be focused more on points and other bunch races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Does that mean you'll attend our Vegan Vacation Noisy? I can update the roll call list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsorlando Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I'm still planning on coming. At least now that my younger brother works at Southwest I can get some free passes, or at least incredibly cheap tickets. I've never been to Portland, and have no idea how much vegan food, and other expenses for a week would cost. Can someone possibly advise on how much money people may want to bring? I know spending is different for everyone, but what would be the bare minimum to get by, I'll go from that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you rock at madisons though. I think it's because you like to fling ppl around the track Dave come to VV08 this year ! It'll be a hoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 You should come Dave...we'll have a blast. Even if that means we need to get up at 5:30 to ride in order to be back to hang out with all the sleepy people. As for racing I'd like to enter the keirin too but I don't think they'd let non cat 2s in that event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to cover a LOT more than just tolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be stingy Ed You'd already get to hang out with me in an enclosed space for 5 days or so...isn't that enough??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontxhide Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 So maybe Im confused. Will this vacation cost money besides the mass amounts of food that I will need to bring? Im moving to P-town in April anyways. So if I find a job that will give me the days off Im going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'd be willing to go with you if we double time it. Splitting gas will have to be cheaper than flying too so it depends on the car...none of the cars I could borrow from home would cost less than a plain ticket when it comes to gas mileage. Also unfortunately I need to store my bikes(two but they'd be in boxes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Sounds good...it would take about 75gallons of gas to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car could definetely make it back and forth, im just worried about putting too much stress on it... and thats 75 gallons of the more expensive gas, otherwise it would really put alot of stress on it. I still rather fly...hmmmmmmmmmmmmm The more I think about it, the less likely it sounds of happening for me. Thats almost like 3 weeks of time I would have to take off - and that would not be able to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Yeah flying would be better...driving is just more fun. I know I'd be out of work for a while and driving that much was really hard on my legs during the trip but it was entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
