2015 BBQ Ride

This years BBQ ride will be to Top of the Hill BBQ in BRATTLEBORO, VT. We will plan on leaving the Meet & Greet from the parking lot of Bennington Station around 3:00 & riding as a group to the BBQ joint arriving there no later than 5:00. Rain or Shine.

They will be setting up a buffet similar to years past which will include - 2 meats, 3 sides & a bottle of water. this year we will have chicken, ribs, slaw, beans & corn bread.

The cost will be $19.00 cash in advance to Alan (amrehm) at the Bennington Station prior to departure. Price includes gratuity. Upon payment you will receive a wrist band. The wristband will be required to eat.

I will need to try & get a general head count by May 26, so if you are planning on attending the BBQ, please reply to this thread with your count. I do realize there are a bunch of people that do not follow this forum, so if you know of someone who isn't on here & you know they are coming, please include them in your count & let them know they will have to pay cash in advance.

AGAIN THIS IS RAIN OR SHINE...WHEN I GIVE THEM THE HEAD COUNT I HAVE TO PAY, SO IF YOU ARE A FAIR WEATHER RIDER & WILL BACK OUT DUE TO RAIN, DO NOT INCLUDE YOURSELF IN THE TALLY UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO PAY ME FOR THE NO-SHOW.

Please make an attempt to pay me before we leave the bennington station. Last year I had 23 people that paid & met at the station. Once we arrived at the BBQ joint we had 54 people. I have to call in the head count in advance, so having almost double the number that I called in meant there wasn't enough food & we had to wait for them to make more.

*** prepay option now removed ***

or you can send payment to bigalrehm@yahoo.com - last day to accept payment via paypal is may 26.

I will provide you a receipt & your wrist band at the meet & greet.

There are 5 others that I know will be going , counting my self.
The only reason I am not paying in advance is because of this statement below.
I am willing to bet it is not just me.

You should get a few more registrations from the people traveling with me. How many do we need for the buffet?

30 for the buffet which I"m sure we will have. I just cant call him Wed & say I have 20 people then show up friday with 50.

Even if people dont want to prepay, I just need to know if you're planning on coming.

with bonneville bills 5 & 3 more prepays that just came in we now have 22.

the prepay option is now closed. If you are going you must find me & pay me by 1:00 on Friday when I have to call with the final total.

If you haven't paid by that point you will just have to order food at the window.
