DIMBY dates have been chosen.
Some have pmed and asked and I might have lied to you in saying August.
I moved it to July. Friday the 17th to Sunday the 19th. I hope that doesn't prevent anyone from coming, but there was a reason.
As always everyone is welcome, and I mean that sincerely. If you don't know where I am and want to come pm for addy.
howie automatically has a place inside, and there might be room for more if tenting is impossible, but it is after all an event where finding your way in and out of a tent in a drunken stupor...in the dark...and raining is almost mandatory.
Sign up here...let the fun begin.

We may be as close as Virginia in July 8)
That's pretty close.
We may have to do a little extra planning 8)

Yeah, and even the weather is cooperating. With this current warmth and rain, the snow may even have melted by then. ;D
You gonna lead the Saturday ride this year, DP?

There's rumor to that effect...provided the mountain of snow in front of the barn melts by then and I can get it to the vets' for rehab. ;)
How long since it ran last?

For those looking to beat Ung, here is a handy resource:
http://furthestcity.com/ (http://furthestcity.com/)
For Manchester, NH, the winner is Perth. The website only uses major cities, so there may be a slightly farther option for those hypercompetitive DMFers.
Well, I wished I ould be there to pass the trophy to Ung . . . ;D

C says I should go this year, so I'm working on a plan. I've got a couple things to get sorted, but I think I can make it. It looks like it's around 15 hours or so. My current thought is to leave Thursday, make a hard day of it and get close and ride the rest in on Friday. That should put me somewhere in northern PA or in southern NY. Then I'll ride the rest in Friday and get there mid-Friday. Any suggestions on areas to book a room and areas to avoid?

Not much info on the website, I know, but trust me, even without being able to go inside (exhibition doesn't open until April 18th) I could see it all through the window. An amazing collection of vintage italian bikes all in mint condition. According to one site, it runs through July 18th, so would be perfect for anyone passing through on the way to DIMBY.

I'm disgustingly lively the morning after the night before ;D
Mostly.
Sloths rock!
They kind of creep me out.
Don't look in the mirror on a DIMBY morning.
I'm not much for looking in mirrors anyway. ;)
Sometimes I'll check to see how badly my eyes are bleeding.
I look when I'm shaving and brushing teeth, otherwise mirror usage is relegated to the left, right, and center mirrors in the car as needed.

Because of the arrival time of your flight a bus won't be very timely...no bus headed north until evening.
This company... http://lrairportshuttle.com/ (http://lrairportshuttle.com/) will be pricey, but fast.
Bick should pick you up at the airport. ;D
which transportation area should I pick . . I don't New Hampton
or I could rent a car . . . doesn't seem too difficult to get there . . .
That might be the best way.
BTW...I removed the map to my house. That wasn't cool.

I did an online...$200 round trip.
but to which service area? I have no idea . . .
better get the car . . .
Just a little $0.02 here:
Car rental offers freedom and lower price. However, it should be noted that based on your arrival time the ride up will likely take 137 hrs, give or take. You are heading through a bunch of minor cities during peak summer travel time. Sitting on a shuttle reading/sleeping/listening may be better for your soul than the stress symphony of gas-brake-honk that driving a car would require. Just a thought.
I would let you borrow my DR650, but I think the logistics of getting it to you are insurmountable. Howie and I will already be halfway to NH by the time you clear customs.

You are heading through a bunch of minor cities during peak summer travel time. Sitting on a shuttle reading/sleeping/listening may be better for your soul than the stress symphony of gas-brake-honk that driving a car would require. Just a thought.
I would let you borrow my DR650, but I think the logistics of getting it to you are insurmountable. Howie and I will already be halfway to NH by the time you clear customs.
Thanks for your $0.02 . . . but, it's an adventure anyways . . .Thanks for bike offer, but, NO riding for me yet, specially such large bike

Not quite 137...but it certainly will be longer than the roughly 1 hr it normally takes.
Also be aware that the states finest has nothing better to do on a Friday afternoon than write love notes to motorists.

Once you pass Concord it's 70mph.
Cellphones are now required to be hands free while driving so if you need to call pull over.

When ung was booking flights I warned him to avoid BOS on a Friday... ;)
It will be a little congested near the tolls in Hooksett around mid-day, but once he clears that it should be easy going.

Let it be known that rootchick and I will be contributing to dinner on Saturday by way of Ham and Cheese sliders.
If you aren't familiar with these prepare to have your minds blown to a whole new level.
Whole.
New.
Level.
They are awesome.
These aren't really a main dish sort of thing but rather a "God im glad these were around, I wish they weren't gone!" kind of thing.
I see 14 on the list now so we figure we'll make enough for 20.
Prepare yourselves!!!!!!!!!!

I'll bet that pile will still burn and dry up anything but 40 days and 40 nights type rain.

Sorry I missed Carlos! Went out to eat last night. I know you'll understand. ;)

beans got boooooom.
Booooooming beans. So simple. So fun. [laugh]
The beans were like a bomb.
When they lit off there was a giant fireball followed by silence.
10 seconds later the can hit the ground.
I was at a loss for words.
Home!

In Miami soon to board last plane on my way home ...
No NH drivers or pedestrians were harmed during my time driving ..
And while we're taking a break from driving, where I'm getting ready to eat a half dozen donuts...
I'd like to borrow some terminology from 1.21GW and officially commend the following for above and beyond acts of DIMBYism--
Ducpainter
Howie
Ung
These three will now be known as The Three Horsemen of the Drunk-pocalypse.
They soldiered on until 530am at least, punishing their livers and themselves out of existence.
I don't believe any previous DIMBY evening has gone on to see daylight.
I, for one, could not, and would not try to keep up with any of you.
I enjoy living too much [laugh]
Everyone that was there, thank you all for showing up and being the cool people you all are.
Home safely. No problems, other than traffic and the godawful heat, from which I learned that 85* is the high end of my jacket's venting system. Above that, it's useless. Guess I can think of it as a preview of riding around the sweltering jungles of Central America.
Somebody thank Nate for me again when he recovers next week. ;D
Nice meeting those of you I met for the first time.
[beer]
Next year:

Finally made it home. Can't lane split with a VW Bug. Great weekend, wonderful seeing old friends and meeting new people. Bromance :P Best bean explosion ever!
Cory should be the fourth member of The Horsemen of the Drunk-pocalypse. Though not a DMF member he is certainly a major part of DIMBY.
Yeah, he's the fourth.
Surely.
Finally made it home :D
safely at home

So I wonder if ung has to get 'customised' for getting off the plane at LHR to fly to OZ?

He passed on the experience.
Staying over Sunday night and getting a round two on all the DIMBY leftovers does not suck. Thank you all for a wonderful time as usual! I've already reserved some extra days off for next year so I don't have to kiss the boss' ass at the last minute to get me some extra DIMBY.
I knew I was gonna miss Sunday's brekkie . . . but, in order NOT to have to wake up at 0300h . .. the next and only available flight was the one I had to be in . . . maybe 2017 or 2018 I will stay a day or two longer . . . and drive to Newark or who knows where . . .

I had a permit...

and burned a 'make the beast with two backsing structure'.

You need to be more specific
I won't know for some time. I put in my calendar "vote" at the end of this year when the trip transitions from 90% to 99% likely.

Weather considerations sort of dictate the two or three months it will work...although if we do it with snow on the ground I don't need a fire permit.
I think you're the only one that does extreme alpine camping though. ;D
The snow would keep the beer cold, encourage liquor consumption for warmth and ensure the shooting gallery didn't get anything torched, other than Chris.

Due to already planned vacations (Taking my oldest to Hawai'i for a graduation present), I will most likely not be able to come. Going from 30 days of vacation a year to 10 kinda cramps my style...

It's been my experience that DIMBY liquor consumption does not require any encouragement.

Thirty hours in the air..... too many more on the ground in between [bang]
Flight from BOS to LHR was fabulous, almost empty 747 allowed me a full row of seats to myself for the overnight flight.
I slept the entire way [thumbsup]
But things turned to shit from there on. Flight connection make the beast with two backs ups (of my own making)..... and next to zero sleep for the next 22 hours of flight.
I arrived home midnight Saturday. Slept until 6am Sunday [thumbsup]
No more sleep came for the next 36 make the beast with two backsing hours.
Bed at 8pm last night, awoke at 2:30am :-\ [bang]
Right now, 6pm on Wednesday I'm sitting at my desk ready to fall asleep on the keyboard.
But...
by make the beast with two backs was it worth it!! ;D ;D ;D
Seems a little surreal now that I'm home..... but getting to DIMBY to meet you bunch of crazy bloody fruitcakes was more than worth the sleep deprivation [laugh]
Thanks for the welcome, the laughs, the wisdom (not you Ddan obviously ;D), and the fat-chewing. Into the wee hours.

It's much easier to make sure that all the available fuel consumes than to try and put the fire out/ remove the fuel....

...and why a major tool in bush fire fighting is "planned burns" where the CFA (fire fighting authority) during periods of low risk actually sets fire to heavily fueled bush within control lines.... in order to reduce the available fuel come the heat of summer.
But I digress.
That's all I try to do with my bonfires...
