2011 Deals Gap 250 Ninja Meet
Hi Folks, anyone want to meet up and organize a trip for the ninja 250 brothers? Im planning a trip to the dragon on august 1 to the 10, and id love to have everyone from all forums including this one ninjette.org, ninja250forum.com and even ninja250.com.. damm thats alot of forums.
But if you are interested in going lets all get together
Im hoping we can get some sponsors even from kawasaki.
this 2011 will be 25 years that the ninja has been in production, so lets show our love and support for this bike.

Lets put it on our calendars for next year. I think we can definatly get a good group together this year, and hopefully we can explore the area around deals gap. Raybot is working overtime on exploring the area, and now we know a few more people in the area.
WHEN
August 1 to August 10 of 2011
WHERE TO STAY
There are Inns and Hotels in Robbinsville that we can stay at. Dablue1, stayed below. 75$ a room. Id recommend sharing to keep the costs down.

If you are camping, you can stay where i stayed
KOA Kampgrounds - http://www.koa.com/www.koa.com
7310 Highway 360, Tellico Plains, TN - (423) 253-2447
that campground was extremely clean and had pools etc.. 25$ a night, still expensive for camping. But beggars cant be choosers.

Keep in mind, in 2011 the 250 Ninja will be 25 years old in the United States. 2011 is also the time Honda re-enters the 250cc sportbike market in the U.S. This is in most places a milestone. So a big gathering of dedicated 250 Ninja Owners, I think would not only be great but proper and in order. What better place to showcase the Ninjas greatest assets than at the mecca of motorcycling, The Tail of The Dragon. If you are involved in or know someone involved in marketing, races, motorcycle events, rallies or shows, give Scorch a holla'. Also lets put the idea out to all the other forums too so that if others have plans on or near the same time to be at Deals Gap, one big gathering can be planned. I believe if we push the idea hard and good enough to Kawasaki and have the commitment and support of the forum members and other 250 owners it could be an awesome event.
So give us some feedback or if you have some ideas so we can get it right.
________________________________________________________________
I believe this will be an event open to all bikes. Others are planning to come with other family and friends that ride sport tourers.
It's just that the 250 Ninja will be the star and center of attention.
Don't worry about the Ninja. I clocked over 1000 miles over the Labor Day weekend going to Deals Gap this year. I got tired before the bike did.

I believe the original dates will be narrowed down to 3-4 days to include the weekend.
