Looks like I can. I will confirm it tomorrow. The only drawback is I can't specific the room/bed type, they have it as "allocated upon room arrival based on availablity". Must be an IHG thing, but I can't see them being filled on that day so it shouldn't be a problem.

This hotel will be better than the Motel 6, and it has breakfast.

Anything is better than Motel 6 laugh.gif

Should be, although we are probably not on the lobby level.

I am sure it will have a pillow menu if you wish to order off it. laugh.gif

George... sorry for the late post.. I thought this wasn't happening ( aka, I though Miller wasn't going) Then I realized that it was still happening, so ill be tagging along with Chris. Can we wedge myself into the hotel room situation? What do you need from me? Im just riding along with Chris.

Ok, here is the room situation so far. I have a second room for Sacramento/Davis. For Willows, I am already maxed out at 2 rooms for my discount. We are staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Willows on the evening of the 26th.

Update: Ashland is fine. We will have 2 rooms there, one with 2 queen beds and 1 with 2 queen beds and a sleeper sofa. We had 3 people in the later last year and it was fine. You just need to make a reservation with HIE for Sunday night in Willows.

Knocking more stuff off the list. Just got my new GoPro camera in today with lots of mounting options. Looks like I will have 2 cameras in the car right now. smile.gif

I need to make my mod list!


We need to finalize the plan for Saturday. I figured Danny, Carson and I would meet up at our usual Park-n-Ride spot. We can then drive down and meet up with Chris and Grae somewhere around Tacoma and go from there. Do we have 3 radios?

Also need to figure out what tools and such we are taking. Since we are all going down together we won't need to duplicate anything.

Grae - you can leave your car at our place if you want. Depending on when you all leave I"ll make you and Chris breakfast before you go (I have an oil change at 8:15), unless you all want to meet at our place. Chiliquilles?

I also will have some banana bread for all of you to help fortify you for your trip down.

Grae, can you bring your camera, I'd like to see some shots of the cars on the track.

I hope you all have a great time. Wish I could go too.

Yes, that is correct.

Still waiting for Danny to sober up enough to post in here his comments. smile.gif

It is typically an 11-12 hour drive down, so a 6am start from Seattle is what we normally do. 5:30 for me since I am farther north. I figure another 40 minutes to Tacoma.

So it sounds like fed way around 630-640 am. We can park at the weight scales, across from Wild Waves south bound I-5, That way you guys can roll in and out really quick, and we can get back on the road.

Banana bread sounds yummy. Thanks babe. I also have two motorollas for the trip.

Not sure, since I get employee discount. If you don't want to stay at HIE, there is a Days Inn across the street. I stayed there a few years ago. Better than the place we stayed at for the past few years.
