Make Trikepilot Ranch your Vacation Destination!

Hey gang,

For the first time ever, we have thought of an amazingly inexpensive and fun way to get to know our fellow trike enthusiasts, while at the same time, spreading the love of our sport.

Starting this spring, we are going to be offering weekend and weekday "getaway" packages to stay at the Trikepilot Ranch here in gorgeous SouthWest Michigan. Set on twelve acres of fresh blueberries, the TP Ranch has a 1500'x75' sod runway (1000' useable), hangar and garage space with full tools, a basketball and tennis court, hot tub, ATV track, wild flower hiking trail, mountain and road bikes, and more!

The Ranch has room to sleep three to four couples, or two full families with kids. There is plenty of room for your motorhome or trailer, so you are welcome to bring out your own machine to fly, or we can arrange to provide you with aerial tours through our gorgeous rolling wine country and lake shore in our P&M Quik*.

We provide all of the towels, linens, and housewares for you to enjoy a relaxing stay at the Ranch, while still keeping in touch with work or family via our complimentary high-speed internet. Spend the evenings enjoying movies on the High Def LCD display provided for you in the living room, or simply relax with a glass of wine on the back deck while gazing at stars in the crisp and clean Michigan countryside.

Just a little over one hour from Chicago (80 miles), you can easily make this a stop-over on the way to other destinations, or make it a destination in itself! A free pass to the Warren Dunes State Park is included so that you can hike or swim to your heart's content. There is also Tabor Hill Winery around the corner, and the adorable town of New Buffalo Michigan about five miles South. For those of you looking for some night-life, we have the brand-new Four Winds Casino and Resort for gambling,  dining and dancing into the morning hours.

We are offering the Ranch for the price of $250.00 per night, everything included. Think about it... up to eight people can come and enjoy flying, hiking, biking, swimming, tennis, hitting golf balls, blueberry picking (in season), and more, all on twelve gorgeous private acres... for as little as $31.25 per person! Where else can you find that kind of fun for so little cash?

Since I make the Ranch my full-time work-live home during the flying season months of March through November, spots are limited and I would like to gauge interest level from our friends here at Trikepilot.com. In order to ensure first-come-first-serve, a modest deposit will hold your spot until the Spring, and will allow me to make plans to spend time with each of you who would like to include some Quik flying in the mix as well.

If you are interested in a very unique getaway, please contact me with any questions or potential days that you would like to visit. I can be reached at info@trikepilot.com, where you can email me your contact phone number for me to call you back, or call my Google voice number of 312.492.4481.

Cheers!
Spence

    Very nice, but a bit too far for some of us. I suppose that if I set off this month I would be there for Christmas. :-)

    Hi Spencer,

    Wiah you the best in this endeaver. Sounds like a great way to meet fellow trikers.

    We were up in South Bend visiting Cousins last month, but my Mother-in-law was sick and we had to put her in Memorial for a couple of weeks.

    When we go back I will try to drive up, and visit. We go to the Four winds now and then.

    Great Idea,

    Jesse
