M/C friendly places to stay in Chattanooga and Dragon area
Posted: Mon May 06, 2013 9:32 pm
OK, I'm traveling with two other m/c guys (my brother and a guy from Turkey) on a 10-day trip through AR, TN, SC, NC, VA and back to AR. So we are a party of 3 guys, and we are doing the hotel thing (don't ask, but my bro has no room for camping gear on his 1800 cc m/c).
I've never thought about this before, but we are an "awkward traveling group". Trying to keep costs down by sharing a room or suite, but it very difficult to find accommodations for 3 guys, you dig? Everything is couple or family oriented. Two queen beds is not hard to find, but two twins and a fold-out gets expensive.
I don't mind bringing a sleeping bag and sleeping pad and sleeping OTF (hopefully carpet), but will a place that expects a couple to stay in a room with two queen beds tolerate the 3rd adult? Mostly I'd rather sleep on the floor (OTF) than on a fold-out couch.
We are mostly riding and not so much sleeping. So a bed-bug free place is about all we ask.
Anyone with suggestions for how to deal with this (3 guys staying together, cheap), or suggestions of where to stay in
Didn't think this 3 guy thing was going to be a problem, and won't be if 3 rooms were no problem, but that just seems like a waste of $.
