April 2019 MotoGP in Austin, TX USA

labusas.oRg


20th Anniversary of our website forum and friendships that have lasted years and years

Reunion Party, Family Get-Together & Attend MotoGP Race


Thank you to our cousin website, SuzukiHayabusa.oRg and her admins for letting us post this thread here. 

This post is directed to all those who hang out here at SH.org but have been labs members in the past.
But we would REALLY like to invite anyone from SH.org who have never participated at labs.
I'm just here to invite you to a big damn party. 


WHAT: The goal is to get as many missing/current labusas.oRg regulars as possible to attend
so we can all get together and watch the MotoGP races and catch up on old times.


WHEN: Next year in 2019. It'll be the weekend of April 12-14 or April 19-21 (pending release of 2019 MotoGP schedule).
For the last six years, the Austin GP has always been the 2nd or 3rd weekend in April.
There is no reason to expect this to change.


WHERE: Austin, TX USA
9201 Circuit of the Americas Blvd, Austin, TX 78617

Announcing the LAB20 Reunion for next year, April 2019's MotoGP race weekend in Austin, TX.
Next year will be the 20th anniversary of ducmanic & GoBig's big idea that produced labusas.oRg.
Over the last twenty years we've had our ups and downs. Some members have drifted apart.
Some have stuck around. Most of us have come a long way in 20 years.
Many now have adult children. Some are even Grandparents now.

Some of you don't even own a Hayabusa or other motorcycle anymore (many of you, actually).
It's cool. We still want you to come.

Realizing we are all a little older, slightly wiser and not quite the party animals we once were...
I'm thinking our 20th anniversary should be more family oriented.
So members can make a family holiday out of the weekend.
Introduce their wives/husbands/children to each other and to the intense motorcycle action of MotoGP.

Austin, TX is a great town to bring your family to for the weekend.
There are many exciting things to do, whether you're here as a family or if you're on your own and want to just have crazy fun.
The next three posts in this thread will contain various info.
The thread will continually be updated as we as a group, gather ideas and start making plans.

Some of you will arrive by plane and then rent a car.
Some of you will organize motorcycle rides and pick up labs members on your way across the states (cough tinhead).
Some of you will come broke and need help getting around or looking for a sofa to crash on.
We've got you covered. Just get your butt here, okay. We'll figure things out.

I'd like to collect ideas on how to proceed with this event.
Then after a week or two, we'll start contacting EVERY SINGLE former/missing labusas.oRg member and invite them to join our reunion!
Anyone who has ever past/present been a part of the board or shown up for local rides/parties.
Friends of friends we've never met are welcome too.
If all goes well, I'm hoping we'll have 100+ members & family show up!

Member list updated (gotta click the link to see it)

We need ideas on hotel vs Air BNB (sp?) vs campground.

And whether we should party friday night or Saturday.

I think everyone should buy tickets for the extreme right, top section of turn 16 stands.

Tin probably thinks turn 15 is better.



And if you think erryone will show up on all new redesigned 2019 Hayabusas or if it'll be BNG again.

The reunion date is set.
Go check out the thread for more info.
https://www.labusas.org/threads/labs-20th-anniversary-reunion-family-gettogether-motogp-april-2019.184761/

We also migrated from the old vBulletin to a new Xenforo XF2 board software setup.
Totally secure, fixed all the old broken stuff (like password reset).
Added avatars and a little bling here and there.
Mostly still looks the same but works a hell of a lot better.
Added some theme options also.

The list of members going to the 20th reunion keeps growing as well.
