Road meet attendance? What's your frequency?

[Verlanka]

I haven't been to one yet.

Neither have I...and I don't plan on going to one anytime soon.

[SSOWorld]

2013 - 2*

Does this mean you hosted two meets in 2013? I attended your Dubuque meet that year but was there a second one you hosted that year?

I modified my post to help you out.😉

[okroads]

I believe my current count is 20 with 2 or 3 more to come this year.

2009 - Oklahoma City, OK
2010 - Kansas City, MO
2011 - Lawrence, KS
2012 - Joliet, IL & St. Louis, MO
2013 - Wichita, KS
2014 - Starved Rock (IL)
2016 - South Bend, IN; St. Joseph Valley (MI); Battle Creek, MI
2017 - Kankakee, IL & Columbus, OH
2018 - Central Susquehanna Valley (PA); Aurora/Naperville, IL; Salamanca, NY; Ashtabula County, OH; Lafayette, IN
2019 - Memphis, TN; Providence, RI; Portsmouth, OH; Milwaukee, WI (planned to attend); Newburyport, MA (maybe); Delaware County, OH (likely)

[signalman]

I waited a long time to finally begin attending meets.  Once I did, I found that I rather enjoy them.  Anyway, here is my not so impressive list:

2015- Utica, NY
(A long hiatus followed due to me working overnights)
2018- Shreveport, LA, Shamokin Dam, PA, "Golden Spike", Abandoned PA Turnpike, Lafayette, IN
2019- Providence, RI and Newburyport, MA (planned)
I had also planned on attending Pittsburgh and Milwaukee, but adulting got in the way.

It's going to be about 3-4 years before I attend any road meet for age related reasons. I would be interested in a meet somewhere in New England, as I have never been to that region.

(Yeah, I know I'm bumping a 4 year old thread  )
Any of you want to update your roadmeet frequencies after covid?

No.

[Rothman]

Hm.  Can't remember how many I've been to.

2008, Long Island was the first
A couple in Buffalo since then.
Then, the one in Schenectady/Amsterdam.

Something like that.

Met up with Roadgeeks at non-meet kinds of events as well, which is messing with my memory.

[Scott5114]

I think this is all of them, though I don't remember the years on a couple of them.

2007 - St. Louis
2008 - Chicago
2009 - Oklahoma City, (?) Kansas City
2010(?) - Tulsa
2022 - Natchez, Oklahoma City

[A.J. Bertin]

So far, I've attended 74 road meets since 2004.  However, I'm not sure anyone would want me to list them all.  LOL

[jpi]

Let's see, for me it was Cincinatti in 2020, Natchez and Iowa City in 2022 and my York area meet I hosted in September 2022 (that was planned for 2020 but needless to say got delayed) and that is all I have attended since the pandemic, I am planning on North Little Rock this year but not sure after that.

[jpi]

74??!! That is impressive! I think I have been to about 3 dozen meets since 2005 and that includes the half dozen I have hosted over the years in PA and TN

[74/171FAN]

[kphoger]

One.  I've attended one.

[Alps]

My website says I had been to 40 by the end of 2014.

[JayhawkCO]

Still sitting at zero alas.

[Duke87]

Any of you want to update your roadmeet frequencies after covid?

Sure why not

2009 - 1
2010 - 4
2011 - 10
2012 - 5
2013 - 8
2014 - 8
2015 - 6
2016 - 4
2017 - 6
2018 - 4
2019 - 12
2020 - 1
2021 - 2
2022 - 2
2023 - 0 so far, will become 1 in a couple weeks. No idea if I'll attend any others.

At this point I don't travel for work as much as I was in the 2017-19 timeframe, but I'm still honestly not that super into meet attendance anymore. I'll go to one if it's local or if it's somewhere I haven't had much of a chance to explore before... if my schedule permits.

The latter concern does get in the way of some things. For example I would like to attend the Little Rock meet, but as one of my cousins is getting married that weekend I cannot.

[cl94]

May as well add my list

2016 - 3
2017 - 5
2018 - 5
2019 - 3
2020 - 1
2021 - 0
2022 - 0
2023 - Soon to be 1, maybe a second if the other CA meet happens

None. This site is more or less a nerdy outlet for me.
