*disclaimer - 2nd spring meet / never been to a summer meet.
What is the purpose of the spring and summer meets?
I was at the booth protecting the donuts for a while and had to take off early, but it seemed it was all about taking pics of rides and talking to guys that one would talk to on a regular basis.
It would be much better if there was some sort of organized activity/contest that gathers the crowds at scheduled times. For example, I noticed Suzuki as a sponsor - good. It would've been better if they had some sort of give away that promoted their brand and awarded a user. They don't have to be massive awards - i'm sure $30 gas card will go a long way.
Also the RS booth had donuts and coffee and were selling stickers - awesome. Maybe we can use more donuts/coffee in the morning and say pizza by the slice in the afternoon. I noticed a shitload of people drop $8-10 for a burger at the concession. I understand that there maybe logistical /estimation issues - but with prior experience I think it can be worked out. Maybe invite Roaming Dragon/other food vendor for the summer meet?
It would be a great idea to have the speed watch/community policing team to visit the site and keep order.
Overall it was a nice to put some faces to usernames and meet new ppl.
