this is gonna be fun. hmmm, american V8's rumbling down country roads.
|
UPDATE: OCC broke ground on their new world HQ, it may be done in time for the cruise!
|
Nice, esp. since 9w runs down thru my town
|
i can't wait for this!!!
|
Update #2 - found a connection here at work (one of my friends went to school with Mikey Tuttle) and I am also going to work the military angle and see if I can get us a full shop tour. It will be dependent on knowing how many people (roughly) we are going to have so try and let me know in the next month or so if you have even tentative plans to attend. I will also be collecting donations for the FDNY burn center like I do for all the cruises up here so I encourage you to be generous if you can
|
count me in :)

Well I heard back from OCC and got the "blah blah blah thanks for the interest and support of OCC etc etc....oh and go f*** yourself for a tour, we don't do that". Well maybe not exactly those words but it wasn't a very nice letter. So I guess we will have to re-work the schedule a bit and hit up Moroney cycle, where you are always welcome
|
More news:
IF the new world HQ is done there is going to be a viewing area where you can watch them work on the bikes and see the filming of the TV show. The new building is right next to where I work so I will keep you all posted on progress to see if it will be ready in time. Only info I have gotten from them is "Sometime in 07" for completion. I am going to start a list at the top of the thread of people interested in coming so I can keep working on Hotel deals up here so let me know if you want to come! Would be nice if we could get 10 or more from this board! |
