It's a shame you can't make it, Rex. From what I've heard about you, you'd fit right in at Sebring. Not to worry, they run it every year.
So, just to recap, Mark, Woolly, Rick and Melissa get in on Friday 12th. Would you care to meet for a post-flight tipple? My current car is just about big enough to fit you all in, for a short run to The Fish on Fire. I need to know now, if anyone needs a roof over their head that Friday evening, so please shout-up. I can accommodate Rick and Melissa or Mark and Wooly (if you guys don't mind sharing a room), but I can't cater for all of you in one go.
Similarly, would the Dutch contingent like to grab a beer after you get wheels down on that Saturday?
Bob/Jeff, same question - are you hitting the bricks as soon as you arrive - will you need a pitstop for the night? Let me know.
I need to let the missiz know what to expect in the way of home invasion, so please give me an idea about your plans.
Best wishes to all - looking forward to seeing you soon.
Hi Matt, we plan on grabbing a bite at FoF, before we head on for River Ranch. Guess we'll manage an 6-6.30 pm arrangement at FoF, as long as knetter isn't wearing his mullet. Then it will take a bit more time.  |

Hi Matt. Thanks for the kind offer. I will be heading straight to Sebring after picking up a car at MCO. First thing Thursday Morning I will be off to watch the shuttle launch with Rick and Mellissa and we will need to use my car as the RV will be parked at Turn 10. A pre return flight drink at the FOF would be great, the blackened grouper sandwich I had there last year was bloody fantastic.

Thanks Matt, I'm already spoilt for choice - I'm collecting a car at MCO then either going to the track, or to meet George in Fort Myers area, or to stay with George's bro in Orlando then to the launch the next day.
So thanks, but no thanks - much appreciated though!

Thanks Matt,
Although I do fancy the idea of meeting up with you and the Dutch for a drink at FOF on Saturday, my head is saying its not a good idea as I have 140 mile trip up to Jacksonville to make after a 10 hour flight, so I had better decline and hit the road straight out of the airport.
Regards
Chris

We are thinking of doing River Ranch at somepoint over the weekend but need to back in Orlando on Sunday Night/Monday Morning. Is there anyone that can give us a ride down and a lift back? Will add to beer fund as required!

Greg, Mike and Randy aren't getting to River Ranch until Saturday morning so heading straight down on Friday night isn't an option. Julian flies in on Friday as well (although at the later time of about 20.45 I think) Definately up for a visit to the FoF, it's become a tradition!  I'll check with Julian and Woolly what we are likely to do after that. Might be that Shamrock comes up with Julian's car to meet him so we might head off down that way. Or we might head down to Lakeland where Woolly's cousin lives. Otherwise we'll just grab a cheap hotel room like before! What's the place next to the FoF like Matt? |

La Quinta? I've never stayed there, (obviously), but I suspect the quality of the amenities increases in direct proportion to the amount of Beer on Fire you consume. Seriously, It's a budget motel, so don't expect the Ritz. I know Hardpoint and Chop stayed there a couple of years ago, so they might give you a better review. If it will help, I'll scoot down there and see if I can get you a room rate - but as already stated, you are more than welcome to stay at my place, if you can hack being snarled at by the dog.... Let me know |

Seriously, It's a budget motel, so don't expect the Ritz. I know Hardpoint and Chop stayed there a couple of years ago, so they might give you a better review. It's not bad, especially after an obscene amount of booze is consumed at FoF. Like Matt said, it's a budget hotel but it was clean enough and the bed wasn't bad. We stayed there twice and I don't remember having a bad experience. |

^ And you can book it though Hotwire for substantially less than the rack rate. There's some black magic involved with that process, though. Mark - if you want to book there, let me know and we'll get it done.
