OFFICIAL 2021 20th Annual VMC National Meet Thread

[Sweet Pea]

UPDATE: Event Site and Registration Link HERE!

Hi everyone!  I’m Rose, and I am both the President of Sin City Victory Riders, Chapter 17 in Las Vegas, and the Event Chair for the 20th Annual VMC National Meet.  We are very excited and honored to be afforded the opportunity to host this prestigious event, show off our beautiful city and surrounding areas, and show our Victory Family an Epic Time!  

In an effort to consolidate all questions and answers into one easy to find, search and reference location, we will be answering any 20th Annual National Meet in this thread alone.  We will be posting in other forums with similar instructions linking here.

As much as we want to put it all out right now, we have been advised to pursue a more methodical timetable.  As such we expect the website to be up and operational in its first revision in 3 to 6 weeks.  Q&A here after the website goes live will be much more responsive.

Persons that will be officially responding to questions on behalf of the hosting chapter will be:
Myself ?      President                 “Sweet Pea”
Danielle        Vice President       “mom3moos”
Levi                Secretary                 “theflashman”
Phil                 Spokesman             “PrometheusVII”

In closing, I hope you guys are as exited to come out to Vegas as we are to be hosting it.  We all look forward to seeing you when September rolls round!

Thanks Rosie. Have you locked down a Hotel?

Don't know if I will be able to attend. Las Vegas is a long long ride for me.

Just kidding. Jeannie and I will be there.

[Sweet Pea]

That’s great!  See you down the road. Yes, we have a hotel and we are working to get all the info on the website.

Yes. When you go to the web link, it is the all encompassing info site. The re are tabs up top. The Registration tab will take you to the registration page where you can click on the link to go register. The Accommodations tab takes you to the page with the hotel info and group registration link.

[Sweet Pea]

Yes, we have reserved parking from Golden Nugget Las Vegas  parking garage.

Does that come with the room or is it a separate fee for parking.

That Reserved Parking is included in the Resort Fee that is inextricably linked to the room rate.  The normal fee is $34 per room per day, we have a negotiated special rate of $10 per day.

The answers to these and most questions pertinent to this event can be found on the Event Website.

Sorry, just like to know what I’m getting myself into. So $10.00 per day for bike or is it $10.00 per day for room? And if it’s per room how many allowed?

Trailering info doesn’t list how much that parking is?

Happy to help. As previously mentioned, it is linked to the room. So, Per Room, Per Day. The hotel has not set a cap on how many bikes can be parked per room. I mentioned there may be 2 couples sharing a room, with 2 bikes per couple, or 1 bike per person, the answer was “That’s Fine”.

Truck & Trailer Parking is included in the resort fee.  This would include up to 1 truck with trailer per couple, for those sharing rooms.

Our $10 per room, per day fee covers all parking (separate motorcycle, standard vehicle and truck/trailer), gym/fitness room access, 2 water bottles per room per day, and Internet connectivity.  This is the best deal we were able to find in Vegas, and happened to be at our most desired location.

I hope this helps.

to further complicate parking matter and questions, "IF" we attend, we had hope to travel in and stay in the 30' Tiffin Class A RV we recently purchased, and trailer the XC in an enclosed 10' trailer.

Since at this time, camping in close proximity to the resort is apparently limited, can the resort accommodate parking for 40'+ of RV needing 12' of overhead clearance and at what cost?

Not complicated at all. The parking spaces at the Golden Nugget are a paid for amenity and contingent on Hotel Patronage. They are not given to the event to dole out. If you do come out and choose to room out of your RV there are a number of RV parks in close proximity, ranging from 5 to 35 minutes away. Let me know If you decide to come out and I’ll be happy to provide a list. 
 

Camping (deemed Non-Essential) is currently limited because of Covid-19 restrictions. This whole event is predicated on the country returning to some sense of normalcy, where into our Governor re-opens our state and its economy, allowing the campgrounds to re-open. RV parks (deemed Essential) are classified differently and are open, and as people live there will remain open. 
 

Always happy to help. Should you have further questions not answered on the website or elsewhere in this thread, feel free to post here. I promise to provide resolution.

Is there going to be a parking area for those of us that are staying someplace else? We have a condo and will be staying there as opposed to staying at the Nugget.

Apologies for the delay, Christmas and whatnot.  Your situation is likely to be in the minority of folks, and I believe I have the answer, but let me double check.

[Sweet Pea]

There will be limited parking.  No over night for those that are not staying at the hotel.

To clarify on what Rose said, If you are not a patron of the hotel, there is no allocated overnight parking.

However, there is no problem if you arrive to link-up prior to or after rides.  Also, if you choose to ride to the Banquet there will be parking allotted for you as your meal counts as patronage for that evening.

Hope this helps!

Do we register our spouse as a member even if she doesn't have her own membership? 

[Sweet Pea]

From my understanding from Jim Koshar if your spouse does not have her own VMC member number she will have to register as a non member. You can have her register as a new VMC member, wait for her to get her member number and then she can register as a member.

[dirtybubble]

That is correct and the membership number is immediately assigned when you join.
