I'm in with no particular date preference, yet.

Where :dunno:

[Dave 330i]

This thread is imbedded in too many layers of topics and subtopics. Unless someone purposely surfs here this thread is not going to get the recognition it needs. We could advertise the get together in "Off Topic" until it gets removed by the moderator. The other option is to create a pointer for Txns to come here. :D

The other option is to create a pointer for Txns to come here. :D I posted a "pointer" in the August BF Get Together thread. That should reach all who previously had shown interest in showing up then. Some of them had to pass up because of prior commitments, hopefully this time we can get better participation.:)

[LDV330i]

Where :dunno: After a date is selected we will then select a location somewhere in the Greater Houston area. For the first one we met at a local restaurant. Here (http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64451&highlight=SE+TX)and here (http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68365) you can read about that get together.

[LDV330i]

I'm in with no particular date preference, yet. :stupid: If y'all vote it will be easier to track the preferred dates of the group even if you have no preference. It is a public poll so everybody can see who voted for what.

Just want to bring up that Feb 6th is super bowl, not that it matters.

OK, I voted for all dates, but most people will do that until something else comes up. Dates too far into the future are not accurate for head count. Is there a way to "withdraw" dates?

[HurstTX]

I'm fine with the 15th. Actually, I'm ok with any date, but the 15th seems like a good weekend at this point.

I am not sure there is any other way to try to gauge interest and attempt set some dates. :dunno:

We need more publicity. :dunno:

[TLudwig]

any date is fine with me at this point, but that's sure to change down the road...

[LDV330i]

We need more publicity. :dunno:
I guess all we can do right now is keep bumping it.

i'd like to go but i don't know any of y'all :dunno:

Don't be bashful. I can assure you we are all nice people. :D At our August get together the majority of people did not know each other. I only knew 1 person. We all ended having a good time. :thumbup: So be sure to join us.

EDIT: found it ^^ :)

[mtbscott]

I've had a little setback. November 30th, on my bike going to join up with my regular nightly ride, I was hit by a car and broke my right leg. I had surgery last Thursday to put a titanium rod through the tibia, two minor breaks in the smaller bone will heal on their own. I am looking at two-four months of rehab to be back on my feet and driving again. I had a friend come over and take me out for a ride in my M3 yesterday, I had to hear the engine to keep me going. I would love to come to a get-together though, be it on crutches or wheelchair. I can't come on the Jan 8-9, 15-16 weekends or on the February 5-6 due to known committments, but would try to make it on others.

It must be a killer not be able to do the 2 things you really enjoy, riding your bike and driving your M3. :cry: Hopefully we will select a date that you can make.

Man that sucks. Here's to your health Scott.

Gees, sorry to hear. I could give hundreds of reasons why it is unsafe to ride a bike in the USA on the roads. Hope your recovery is without any setbacks.

[LDV330i]

Now that we are starting to get past the holidays we can start focusing on setting a date. NBaker and PostOak have PM'd me saying that they would also be interesting in attending and are pretty much open for any date.

We can all hope we can get some much deserved nice weather when we schedule BF SE TX II. :) One suggestion I would like to throw out is the possibility of having a cook out at one of the local parks (Memorial Park, Bear Creek, etc.) :dunno:

I like the idea. :thumbup: It allows everyone to circulate to find interesting conversations. Sitting at the dining table at a restaurant just doesn't allow one to do that. We could chip in a few bucks for the drinks, chips, charcoal, etc. Everyone can bring his favorite meat for BBQ.

drmwvr has PM'd me with another good suggestion. Before I announce it to everybody I am trying to confirm a couple of details. :D Stay tuned.

[LDV330i]

drmwvr has suggested that we might able to get together at a place his family has in the country west of Houston. :thumbup: He will be checking dates it might be available and hopefully coincides with dates when most people might be able to attend. By early next week he should be able to provide availability.

Let's just hope that whatever Saturday gets chosens has as nice a weather as today. :) I am not personally vouching for today's weather, just going by what Channel 2 is saying. I am 4,000 miles S-SE of Houston enjoying the Southern Hemisphere Summer in Lima, Peru. :D

He he he, how about a banjo? :D

[nbaker]

January 15, sounds good to me or any date. Count me in

[TLudwig]

Scott, sorry to hear about the accident. Best wishes for as speedy a recovery as possible. That's what you get for trying to one-up AJAX's broken arm at the last meet. :p

If the date is the 15th, I'll probably still be in the rent car, but we'll see how fast the auto body shop is about rebuilding my baby.

[LDV330i]

I guess its time to start firming up some dates. Here are some options to consider.




January 15 appears to be the most popular date. On this date we would have to meet at in town location.
January 29 is in the next tier of popular dates. On this date, drmwvr would be able to make his place west of Houston available as a site for us to meet.
February 12 is also in the second tier of dates. On this date we would have to meet at in town location. Keep in mind that this is the Saturday before Valentine's Day.
Feel free to make any comments or provide any suggestions.

[mtbscott]

I can't make either of the January dates but the February date would be ok. I might even be hobbling by then.

[LDV330i]

[armaq]

I voted for this weekend Jan 15, but seems i won't be able to make it. I'm in NYC right now and won't be back for another week. I now prefer the Feb date, hopefully I can get my new wheels and tires by then

[Dave 330i]

Looks like we have to defer the gathering until February. Too bad we will miss the ranch.

[LDV330i]

Looks like we have to defer the gathering until February. Too bad we will miss the ranch.Not so quick. :D

Unfortunately the poll does not tell the entire story. I have had to keep a second set of books of who can come when because many people did not vote in the poll, in some cases they PM'd me. That list for the 15th currently has TLudwig, postoak, drmwvr, nbaker, Ajax, mng plus those in the poll: Dave330i, Alamo, anyone, HurstTX, Tex, and myself. Tonight I have called and PM'd people to try to get them to reconfirm.

I assume you are still available for next Saturday. :dunno:

[mng]

Luis,

Just got your PM - sorry, but i'm gonna be another vote for Feb. I could make it this wkend, it would just be less convenient for me (so if i'm a swing vote, i can do this wkend and will most likely be there).

I'm trying to finish working on a property so i can get it on the market ASAP (and wkends are my only time to get a lot done). By feb, i'll definitely be done.

Long story short, either way - but i'd prefer Feb. :)

[TLudwig]

yeah, i'm in for this weekend...temporarily bimmerless...but i'm in.

[LDV330i]

Not so quick. :D

TLudwig: Yes

Ajax:?
mng: maybe
Dave330i: Yes (?)
Alamo: No
anyone:?
HurstTX:?
Tex:Yes
LDV330i: Yes
Armaq:No
mtbscott: No

With only 5 confirmations I guess we will have to wait for a better date. It seems like many people were also having problems with the Jan. 29 date. Sorry drmwvr, I guess nobody wants to check out your place.

I guess we will have to focus on Feb. 12. Hopefully by then TLudwig will have his car back and mtbscott will have greater mobility. :)

[drmwvr]

Sorry drmwvr, I guess nobody wants to check out your place.



No problem; it's not going anywhere. We can try another time. FYI, I will not be able to make the Feb 13th date if that is chosen. Regardless, thanks for all the hard work trying to orchestrate the get together :thumbup:

I'm OK with Jan 29.

Anyone considering going to bimmerfest 2005, April 23? Jon says it's going to be the best ever. The new owners will clear all three lots, BMW, MB, and Porsches for our BMWs. I've been there except for the first one, and it was good to see all the members. :thumbup:

There is change in the count from the previous posting. I had been planning to attend a (High Speed) Driver's Ed (http://www.lsrpca.com/DE/DE.html) course at Texas World Speedway. I forgot that it was to take place the weekend of February 12. TLudwig has also indicated that he will be attending the Driver's Ed course. So we need to go forward and plan on getting together next Saturday, Jan. 29. Make sure to mark your calendars. Additional info will be forthcoming.

Unfortunately drmwvr has informed me that he will not be able to attend next Saturday because of plans that will take him away from Houston, so he will not be able to offer his place as site for us to get together. So we need to come with an alternate location. Having a cookout at a local park appeared to have some appeal. It looks like we will have people coming in NW Houston,Midtown Houston, Sugarland, Clear Lake, and Bryan/College Station (2). A central location location like Memorial Park (http://www.ci.houston.tx.us/abouthouston/exploringmemorial.html) would be a good venue for everybody. Other parks that we could consider are Bear Creek Park (http://www.pct3.hctx.net/PBearCreek/) and George Bush Park (http://www.pct3.hctx.net/PGeorge/), both located in far west Houston/Harris County. Any suggestions are welcomed.

The forecast for next Saturday is 30% rain with a high of 68. We all know how the weather can be around here, it can be a lot better than that forecast or a lot worse. We probably also need to go ahead and come up with a restaurant as an alternate location.

I can offer my place in Friendswood. I got enough room to accomodate everyone. Stay as long as you want. BYOM for the BBQ, and we can all chip in for beer and chip. Ladies are always welcome. :thumbup:

Ladies are always welcome. :thumbup: Thanks for the offer, I hope it is not too much of an imposition. :) Your place will provide a great venue for us to visit without feeling hurried.

I would like too suggest that everybody also bring a dish they would like to share, be it a salad, side dish, or dessert.

There will be at least one lady in attendance for sure: anyone, who will be driving down from College Station.

[anyone]

That is a great location considering I will be in Clear lake. I'm the only lady?

My place is not a problem if everyone agrees. There are plenty of parking and the plumbing to the johns work. How about suggesting something to do besides drinking beer and eating? Bring your favorite wax and we can have a wax comparison test? We could vote on which one is easy to apply and take off, and which one has the best initial shine? Some of us could be surprised. Another would be bring your portable GPS to show it off? I could set them up inside the van and drive around the neighborhood to compare their accuracy and voice prompting directions. For the ladies who are not interested in these nerdy ideas, you can bring your favorite car interior deoderizers for demonstration. :rofl:

[LDV330i]

That is a great location considering I will be in Clear lake. I'm the only lady?I believe Dave330i was trying to extend the invitation to significant others.

Unfortunately BF has an extremely lopsided male participation. I think you may be the only female Texan B'Fester. :)

The Houston CCA has a "local happening" forum. I will post an announcement there once I have established my username, Dave 330i.

[tamum3]

I'll be just down the street in Friendswood, but have made plans to attend the Auto Show that day.

What time is this get together happening? I might be able to stop by if its later in the afternoon.

LDV330i... nothing is firm yet, not even the date, right?

[LDV330i]

LDV330i... nothing is firm yet, not even the date, right?

The date of Jan 29 is firm since it was determined that is when most people would be attending. As for the time I will leave up to you, though I will be glad to come over early to help set up and can help with the clean up too, not that you are expecting messy people to show up. :D

[LDV330i]

I have spoken with Dave330i to work out some of the details for Saturday. He will be expecting us around 3:30 PM for a back yard cook out. We will go ahead and get some chips and dip for everybody to enjoy. It had been mentioned that maybe beer would be available but after thinking about it would be hard to please everybody's beer taste or you may not even care for it. Since it would be unfair to ask for everybody to chip in for that, so it is going to be BYOB.

So for Saturday if everybody will bring whatever they want to grill, a dish (salad, side dish, dessert) they would like to share, and something to drink then we will be set. Plates, utensil, glasses, etc. will be provided.

Dave330i lives in a new subdivision that is yet to be mapped. Please PM me with your e-mail address so that I can provide you with the correct directions and contact phone numbers in case if you need help getting there.

Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday.

I have spoken with Dave330i to work out some of the details for Saturday. He will be expecting us around 3:30 PM for a back yard cook out. We will go ahead and get some chips and dip for everybody to enjoy. It had been mentioned that maybe beer would be available but after thinking about it would be hard to please everybody's beer taste or you may not even care for it. Since it would be unfair to ask for everybody to chip in for that, so it is going to be BYOB.

So for Saturday if everybody will bring whatever they want to grill, a dish (salad, side dish, dessert) they would like to share, and something to drink then we will be set. Plates, utensil, glasses, etc. will be provided.

Dave330i lives in a new subdivision that is yet to be mapped. Please PM me with your e-mail address so that I can provide you with the correct directions and contact phone numbers in case if you need help getting there.

Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday.

Thanks, LDV330i for coordinating the SE TX get together. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone, and some of you again. It will look like the weatherman will give us a reprieve from the raine predicted for this weekend.

BTW, another place to place a bookmark BMWCCA Houston...

I forgot I had an FTP site where I could make available the maps and instructions to get to Dave 330i's house. :confused: Those who did not get a chance to give me their e-mail address have received a PM with a link to the maps.

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it today... Caught a bad cold 2 days ago, probably because of the temperature drop. Still not feeling well this morning, so...

Have a good time guys! And don't forget to take lots of pics!

Guys,

I have to extend an apology to you for buggin out on this...life is a little crazy right now, and at some point something has to give. So, from the deeps...sorry.

It looks like many prospective attendees had last minute changes to their schedules come up as we had a very poor turnout. :(

Well, maybe next time.

Bummer; I know you put a lot of effort into getting everyone together :(
