    The "main event" would have to be frickin' spectacular and worthwhile in order to get me motivated to even make the trip; and much more than just a national show-n-shine VX meet.

    I say something like a organized VX Convoy up "PIKES PEAK" in Colorado Springs, CO would meet the criteria as a spectacular main event, and is centrally located in the USA.

    I still think we should move the "international" meet a little further east and or south. We already have a North Western meet once a year in Moab, so I think this should offset that a little more than Denver possibly.

    And as how i said before.

    The further southwest this meet goes less likely eastern VX'ers will attend even though scott deserve the great opportunity to gather all of us parking front of his house.....
    It would be a long Driver for us on this side of the street (east)
    Dakar was just the begining.

    I think a little more east would be fair, maybe somewhere in Ohio/Indiana area. It is ya'lls turn to drive for multiple days for a meet...

    I would go anywhere it is but only if it's in june, july or august... it's the only time my kids could go without skipping school... and I need their help to do a roadtrip like this... I think Dallas/ Longview area would be ideal... this would be the ideal venue for this type of meet... Longview would have plenty of accomodations and it is within 100 miles of four major US interstate highways. It is within 40 miles of this place:

    just my two .01's
    We sit together, my VX and I, until only the VX remains.

    Half way through the month and only 63 votes total? I know there are more folks out there. It's a pretty tight race right now, get your say so in... NOW!

    Hard to believe that there isn't more support for having an event like this. I think a (inter?)national meet would be a great way to celebrate 10 years of VX ownership. I think Des Moines, Iowa would be the best location to have it, because it is about the same distance for those on either coast. The Stoney Creek Inn might be the perfect meeting place, and there is plenty to do around town... it's not just cornfields like a lot of the midwest. Come on people... let's make this happen!

    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.
