Now that ROT is becoming more of a reality than a talked about ... we seem to have some new members on here.  Rather than posting on last years thread ... lets start a new one. 

 

Who all is new .... and who just can't wait for ROT to get here.  (We all know us oldtimers are gonna be posting too. lol)

 

Btw, my name is Spirit.  I am a ROT addict.  This will be my 8th ROT.  I'm the chatterbox of the board and serve as the forum moderator.  If you have any questions and can't find an answer already posted, ask away.  Either myself of someone who has been enough times to know the answer, will let you know.

This will be our 12th ROT!!!!!!

Not new to ROT but new to the RV area.. pretty pumped about being close to the parade route.. got a new golf cart and rv.. ready to party!!!

We can't wait! Last year was our first and while a lot of the people we met last year won't be going this year, we are still looking forward to having an awesome time. Getting there bright and early Wednesday morning and will be cruising the grounds and socializing shortly there after!

Hi there to all the new and the old. We are Clayton and laDawn. This is our second year at rot. Didn't get to meet a lot of people last year and stayed off site but with a little luck we got our spot on parade route and can't even describe our enthusiasm for this opportunity. New toy hauler. Bought cart last year at end of rally from another rally goer and of course wwe are spreading the word to everyone we know that the ROT is the place to be!!!

Hello oldmember here BP-aka Biker-princess-bka Rockstar lol Im from the dallas ftworth metroplex looking to meet old and new friends feel free to stop by

He everyone, name is Terry ( duh) this will be my third ROT, one year we hoteled it, one year we roughed it and this year.. new toyhauler, and cart. Now I think we can haul all we need for the huge 4 night party! Wife ( Chelle) and I will hopefully make it in EARLY weds. morning and since I'm such a pro at setting up camp we'll be hopping about in 30 minutes or less..... LMAO... don't I wish! But seriously if anyone needs help or maybe forgot something small and simple, look me up, ya never know what might be hidden beneath behind the walls. Let's make this one of the best rallys ever.

So far it looks like you're the ol timer Santo's, now I know who to ask for all the inside info.

LOL...........now Terry if you can set it all up in 30 or less are you certain you are bringing enough for the ROT? we have been RVing it for years and it takes about 45 minutes for us to be pulled in blocked up and relaxing........we will see what happens now that we have a bike and cart to unload........maybe an additional time invlolved but you can bet your ass that I agree with ya brother when you say we can either make it or break it on the kind of rally we decide to have.......its all up to us no matter who all is pouting and having a bad time I intend to make ours great!!!!!!!!!

I didn't count the 15 minutes of trying to back the damn thing in. LOL After that it's all pretty easy for me. Someday I'll learn to back a fifth wheel till then... hope I have some extra room to maneuver a little.

lol Yes 15 to 20 to get it in right lol

ok so we are still talking about the trailer right ....BP?................. ;)

 

I am planning on being there early wednesday and hope i get there early enough to get mine in without too much trouble.......if anybody needs any help I am just a text or email away..........Purple E-10J feel free to come on by anytime.........this will be my first year dragging a fifth wheel around but we have been dragging a 35 foot bumper pool for years...........

What is going to seem strange THIS year is not seeing some of my friends that I just expect to be there.  Its going to feel like ROT used to before I became Mod and got to know so many people. 

 

The first three years we made the rally the only person we fully recognized year to year was the guy on the corner in Purple A that used to come in with the big buses, tents and smokers.  Other than Chip,  every year was a new experience of meeting new people and hoping for good neighbors ... which they all were.  Some were friendlier than others, but we've never had a bad neighbor at ROT.  :D

 

 

Lol where is your mind at lolyes to back it in ok never mind we will lok you up bc everything I type now sounds dirty lol

How are ya? My name is Tilden and this will be my second ROT...in 08 I was a vendor selling coffee drinks in my mobile coffee van which was located directly in front of the shower trailers...looking forward to meeting and hanging with lots of good peeps this year...we will be in Purple C-30

Im great its niceto meet you I thought your profile was fake bc when you click it it say error is your profile private? anyways what day will you be heading down

hmmmmmm....let me check the settings (fixed)...i am thinking about heading down on Wednesday

ok cool send me a friend request

Howdy y'all!  Jerri and I ARE going, and we can't wait to hold up a drink to all that can't make it this year, and meet up with the one's that do come in!  Then to meet the new friends will be a blast!

Our commute from the Atlantic ocean shores of Cocoa Beach Florida is over... we now live about 18 miles north of the ROT Rally grounds... so that will be very different, not being dog axx tired when we get there!

Yes, the camper will be behind the bike again!  Just because we live close does NOT mean we won't be staying out there in the camper land!  The Palace will be up and running, and unlike all of your RV'ers... it takes about 30 seconds to set it up... but another hour to put it all in place! 

Since the FUB won't be there... where will we do the midnight toast this year?  .....is anyone willing to step in and spell Bebop and the FUB this year? 

TO ALL:.... get ready, it will be another good one!

Spirit:  remember when you talked me into coming???  Well, Monster will just be getting home when we go to ROT this year!  READY to party!

ScooterT

Darn, Scooter...if you live just north of the Travis County Fairgrounds, I guess there is no reason to set up a meet-n-greet for Daytona next month!

I think it takes 15 min to holler at his wife to help back it in...lol  then start backing it in..

pull through needed  lol  love ya baby

I keep telling ya anytime you wanna try backing it up, I'll gladly sit back and watch. I know when something kicks my tail but I am getting better each time I gotta do it.  Maybe we'll get lucky and beat everyone back to our spot so I can pull through. LOL

Lol pull thrus are awesome unless you cut that fifth wheel to short...."..... Then here comes the backing all over again

The funny thing about it all is ... a bumper pull he could back into the eye of a needle so to speak but the fifth wheel.. kinda kicks his butt.. lol I cant back a boat down a double drop lake entrance so I know I cant do better, just funny sometimes cause it frustrates him so..

Name is James and although I grew up in Austin, I haven't lived there since 2002, so this is my first ROT as I travel down ffrom Ohio. Can't wait.
