Below is a copy from Larry about the ride on the COG site forum: (The block of rooms that were reserved have been released, but I see no reason that there should be a problem reserving rooms! Come on, it's a great time with good people!)
Ride headquarters will be at Abner's Motel in Stanton, Ky and I have held the same block of rooms this year. All the rooms are non-smoking, two double beds and include fridgerater/microwave. Please reserve your room in advance, rooms will be released second week of August. Abner's cancellation policy: let them know within 24 hours of check in and there is no charge. Credit card info is required to hold the room but will not be charged until check in. There is a discount rate of $55.00 per night. Bring a friend and split the cost. You must tell them you are with the COG RIDE to get the correct rooms or if you are a smoker there are smoking rooms available. Smoking rooms are also discounted. Here is a link to their website.
http://lilabnermotel.com/Abnersinstanton.htmlThere are no fees, t-shirts or provided meals for this event. Speaking of food, Abner's is within walking distance to several good restaurants. That's usually where we gather to eat each night and I'm sure they appreciate the business. There is a local drag strip five minutes away, drive-in theatre two minutes away, rappelling, guided rock climbs and several other attractions which are listed on the motel link above.
For those of you who have not attended, I will have some homemade maps of the area that have all the good stuff marked. You can create your own adventure or join up with other attendees, either way you just can't go wrong with this area. Myself and a few others will be showing up Thursday evening and ready to ride Friday morning.
Thanks to everyone who attended last year and I hope to see you again this year. Larry, KyAAD
