MMM celebrated its eleventh anniversary. Now on to planning our twelvth annual North Carolina Ride for 2010.
The Michigan Squadron of the MSTA has enjoyed the Michigan Mountain Madness "MMM" event in North Carolina for eleven years. These were great years thanks to Gregg Mitchell ! We started a new venue in 2009--the Ironhorse Motorcycle Lodge--which was well received by those attending.
"Iron Horse Motorcycle Lodge and Campground is a secluded 39-acre resort on Stecoah Creek in the smoky mountains of western North Carolina. It is surrounded by the splendor of the Great Smoky Mountains, which provide some of the best motorcycle riding in the world. Iron Horse is within minutes of the Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap, the scenic Cherohala Skyway, Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherokee, Fontana Dam, and the Nantahala River Gorge. Gather around the fire at the Iron Horse Pavilion and enjoy a home cooked meal. The Pavilion is glassed, screened and lighted. A large screen projection TV with VCR, DVD, and surround sound are provided. Internet access is available at the resort." *
Mark your calendar for 23-29 May 2010. Arrive on Sunday the 23rd, depart Saturday the 29th. Or stay part of the week, whatever works for you. In this manner, we avoid the weekend traffic for motorcycling.
The Ironhorse held the entire facility exclusively for MSTA member registrations until March 2010; at this time, however, any part of the facility for which members have not made a reservation is opened to non-MSTA members.
Who is staying with and riding with whom? If you have started to form a group that would like to secure a particular cabin and you are looking for others to join-in or you will have an empty trailer slot or you are looking for a trailer slot, please click on the Bill Webb link below and send me a note; I will start a page that lists those details.
Reservations are easy to make. Look at the listing of available cabins, private rooms, semiprivate rooms, etc., which can be found here; non-MSTA members may also have reserved rooms that are not reflected on the list. Then call the Ironhorse directly at 828-479-3864 and advise you are with the MSTA group and make your reservation. As soon as you have made a reservation, send an e-mail with the dates you reserved and which accommodation option you choose to me...... Bill Webb , and I will update the website.
The route maps and GPS files will likely be available as a result of more hard work from Gregg Mitchell. Ian Orr may make availble GPS files configured specifically for use with Zumo models. This information will only be made available prior to the event to those that have made a reservation at Ironhorse.
INTERNET ACCESS: Wireless Internet will be available to those staying at Ironhorse with the following limitations: The wireless does not work inside the cabins nor is it accessible at the full cabins. You can receive wireless in the pavilion and back deck. There is also a computer in the pavilion that guests may utilize.
OTHER ACTIVITIES: When you want to take a day off from riding, there is locally available water rafting, horseback riding and hiking. On a rainy day, the Ironhorse pavilion has a large projection screen TV, pool table and card tables.
