Why don't we hold these rallies in areas with more rooms available? Riding from FL to MO and then staying in a flee bag motel 40 miles from the rally is a rally deal breaker.
At the rally in Charleston WV, there were vast quantities of excellent hotel rooms near the site(s). Unfortunately, that rally received a lot of criticisms for various reasons, among which was the fact that the rally was split up over two different sites that were miles apart. Our hotel was right next to the air conditioned vendor area, and all in all I thought it was a great arrangement. But the camping crowd at the college had some legitimate complaints.
When the microburst storm came thru the camping area of that rally and deposited some of the tents in the river and wrecked the beer tent, my crew and I were happily enjoying free beer at happy hour at a very nice downtown hotel with our bikes safely parked in the basement. My kind of rally.
