Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??


I'm sure there has been a post for this, but I did a search and didn't find it. Soooo, if there is one, please allow me a moment to get my helmet on before the rocks start coming my way....

Anyone from the group going to Indy ? I know I'm really stoked.... Can't wait to see the 125's, 250's and of course the 800's. I heard PJ is going to have a ride at Laguna and Indy.

The cherry on top of the whole thing off is going to the Indy Mile. I've never seen a mile dirt track before, so that's going to be killer.

Would be great to make plans to meet up there. Still on the fence about flying vs. taking the bike down....

OK, got the helmet on now, let the stoning ensue....

Yep, I'm there. Sounds like similar seating as Ryan.

I'll also be at the Dirt Track race as well

Re: Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??


im riding out there on the sv to meet ppl, on what else, but sv's my seating is on the last turn coming on to the main straight, and ill prolly be leaving burlington VT on the 7th of sept altho that is just what im planning right now. would be great to ride out with some other peeps, the leaving date is negotiable but i do want to stop by mid-ohio on my way out there. if anyone wants to ride out together or meet up somewhere along the way lets plan something cause that would be pretty cool.

Re: Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??


Riding out, sitting in SW Vista! I am sooo stoked! The good thing is that even as you wander around the vendor area, all the vendor booths will have close circuit TVs to watch all the action!
I got my postcard with the schedule this week!

Hey Knarly,
If your flying, call soon. we opted for that instead of taking the Tuono just in case but am flying out Sept11th. Not too happy about that but rates are still cheap.

Re: Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??


I'll be there with a few others who don't post much. Penthouse A seats toward the end of the front straight. I'm hoping I can still go...have a trial in federal court starting on the 8th. I could be SOL.

I'm with the Viva Ducati deal as well. Looks like we got a nice bump to the VIP suites above the MotoGP garages, NICE !!

I decided I'm going to fly to Chicago and take the two hour drive to Indy. I'm trying to talk a friend who's driving to take my trailer and some bikes. Ideally a bunch of XR100's so we can play supermoto in the hotel parking lot !!

Re: Indy MotoGP - Who's going ??


I just looked closer at the email I got today that says the MotoGP bikes are testing at IMS this week! It's free to get in! Damn, I'm too far away.

The schedule also says that ticket holders can walk around in the pits on Thursday afternoon of race weekend!

Winger, we could leave today and get there

Didn't know it was free,probably have a better chance of getting an autograph this weekend than in Sept?
