Ok it's getting close... I am staying at the hotel and so will be riding to the track on Friday from the hotel on the bike I'm doing the training on. So... I was reading that lunch is on our own. Will there be a place that we can purchase lunch at the track?

If not... what are those camping at the track planning on doing?

Obviously I'm not an old pro at this ... just old!

Doug, the tack day leader guy over at the COG forums says:"We have food concessions on site for breakfast and lunch".
Nola Motorsports has a restaurant at the track and they open for lunch on track days, likely the same at Jennings. I prefer to bring my own chow, a sandwich and trail mix.

I am also staying at the motel (Quality Inn) but I am trailering with my cargo van so I will bring an ice chest with water and gatorade and room for sandwiches. You and any other MSTAers are welcome to stash chow, drinks and gear in my van. I usually have my track bike in the van but the Concours is bigger than I want to try to get in and out, not even sure my ramp would hold it. Hence the trailer for the Connie and the van will have lots of room. I can bring an extra ice chest if needed.

Whoa! Bob you still Da-Man! My usual lunch if available is yogurt and a banana and some granola type thing so I wouldn't need much room. Well a few bottles of water and Diet Coke too. I figure if you have room I would go to a grocery the evening before. I don't know what my buddy Chris would want but probably not much more than me.
Thanks.
See you there! This should be fun stuff!

Mapquest says there is a Subway samich shop as well as a Winn Dixie supermarket walking distance from the Quality Inn, perfect!
I'll have plenty of room.  I'll bring a chest for drinks and one for food. And some extra folding chairs.

I'm looking forward to it!

Well...my 4-wheeler decided to take a few days off, so my plans are changing. I was going to trailer my bike to the track and pitch a tent to save a few $. With the cage being out of commission, I'm riding to, during, and from. So with the fuel savings of 50-55ish mpg vs 17 mpg, I've decided to spring for a room at the Quality Inn. I suppose I'll see some of you there.
