    Default Saturday 27th March: NOT the H.O.G event, Shimoda

    Following on from the HD thread, a few of us Harley riders will head down to Shimoda on Saturday morning, staying overnight at Ernest House , with a leisurely ride back on 28th. Somebody even mentioned a campfire, which is great.

    From the HD event thread I have self, Jav, rdkng103, Tokyo_Road_King, Twinrider, slowB, "rocketman" (not GR but my mate on his Rocket III) plus whoever else would come along and apologies if I left you out. . It might be nice to have a Harley only ish event, but personally I'm not bothered.

    There may or may not be a chance to gatecrash the H.O.G. event going on down that way, but either way we should consider forming an informal "Chapter" : )

    My suggestion is Ebina PA at 7am for 7.30, then away we go from there. I have already booked Ernest House for self - I believe everyone is taking care of themselves on that one.

    slowB I am sure this was originally your gig so welcome anything I missed.

    and i think there are also 2or3 more riders coming

    I reckon 7:30 with an 8am departure would be a bit better as it would let the Ashinoko and Hakone skylines warm up a bit more.

    I'm not bothered by what bike folks are on either, the more the merrier! Besides the Rocket, we'll have Screech on his Big One

    Good idea Twinrider 7.30 for 8 sounds fine by me.

    7:30 at Ebina it is. Any ideas for the return leg on Sunday or are we coming back the same way we're going down? Just asking.

    you should do the west coast on the way back

    I'm happy doing the west coast coming back. Not sure about hopping on the highway at Numazu though. At that point I might shoot up Rt. 1 and take the Ashinoko and Hakone Skylines to Gotemba, depending on the time and weather. Can't beat those two roads for great views and curves.

    Either way works for me. The Skylines are nice and I can jump down into Odawara and take 134 all the way home.

    I'll do the ride down but will probably ride back around 7pm or 8pm, rather than making it a two day event.

    I'm a chance for this but I havent mentioned it to the Mrs. yet. If I come I'll prob just drop a tent on the beach down by the bat cave.

    JV was mentioning it'd be nice to barbie at the beach now that the weather's good. There's a nice supermarket on the way in Matsuzaki where we could pick up the vittles.

    I could grab some steaks from the base. If everyone agrees just give me a head count.

    I'll probably leave Tokyo around 3 pm. How long would it take to get there? And where would be a good place to meet you guys when I get there? Dang it! I guess I will miss the BBQ...

    Hey rdkng103, I'd like to oomfirm if it is still okay to share the room with you on the 27....

    Jav.... Do you have "Gaijinriders" T-shirts there (size XL)...

    TRK, you are confirmed to share the room. I already told Chie-san at Ernest House that I would have a room mate.

    It would be great if we could share our keitai's email addresses or phone #s ... Specially among active members....

    I know that posting them on the internet is kinda scary... maybe we can exchange them in Shimoda...
