Clearwater, FL, 33762 Will be the run headquarters.
Checking in on Tuesday 4/26/2016 and checking out Friday 4/29/2016
I spoke to the manager, and it seems that using a AAA/CAA discount or prepaying would be cheaper then holding a block of rooms.
Please book your room ASAP via whatever way you'd like.
Rooms are in the $63 - $79 range.
Nice outside pool and Jacuzzi area.
At this time, I'm not scheduling any rides, but we can cruise down the beach, etc.
If you're not afraid of heights, a ride over the Skyway bridge is cool.

Still hoping to be in shape for the ride but didn't get your pm, Hacksaw. We should talk and maybe meet up when you are headed to Claude's. I'll pm my phone# to you.

If all goes well Roady will be my roomie in Clearwater
.Had a nice chat with him over the phone Last night. I am having trouble sending some people PM he is one. I have sent Grieg Foresi 3 PM's and I don't think he got them (WhiteTrash) please send me a PM. The Hinshaw's plans are to drive down to Claude's on Thursday the 21st. unload the bike, Thursday morning ride with Claude, Cyborg, and hopefully Roady. Carol will follow us in the van and trailer to the first night stop in TN. The next morning she'll will head out for Atlanta Georgia and spend a couple days with her niece and family, and then she is on to my brothers in Englewood Fl. We may spend a week longer in FL visit friends and family.
