THE FOUNDERS WAVE RETREAT

Take Tuesday
off.

Sixteen riders. Two weekdays in May 2027. That's the whole retreat.

Privately tucked away in the Catskill mountains of Mountain Dale, New York. Small by design. Sign-ups open to the list first.

The machine is stabled. The rider is set free.

SMALL, ON PURPOSE
THE ROAD IN

The trees turn. The road empties. This is the week.

Roads through the Southern Catskills, fall air, sixteen machines moving together — then back to the property before the fire's lit. The ride gets planned around the cohort that actually shows up: experience, pace, what the day calls for. No forced pace. Nothing to prove. Just a good road, with people who get it.

WHY "FOUNDERS WAVE"

A small place for us.

Some people know exactly what a free afternoon is worth — and they've stopped waiting for permission to take it. THE STABLE is built around that. The ride, the fire, the people who get it. Small, on purpose.

This retreat is called the Founders Wave because it's the first one. There's no long history here yet, no members' hall, no clubhouse — just sixteen riders, two nights, and a property in the Catskills. Everyone who shows up in May isn't just attending something. They're the reason there's a second wave, and a third, and whatever THE STABLE becomes after that.

The long-term idea is bigger than one retreat. Somewhere down the road: a real headquarters — a physical clubhouse, not just an address. Books. Mechanics. Music. The kind of place you'd drive out of your way to sit in, even on a night nothing's happening. That's not something a launch builds. It's something the first people build, before there's anything yet to point to.

If that sounds like a nice idea, this retreat probably isn't for you. If it sounds like something worth being early to — worth helping build, not just attending — the Founders Wave is exactly that.

MOUNTAIN DALE, NY · SOUTHERN CATSKILLS

Privately tucked away, ninety miles from everything.

Fourteen acres of farmland along a quiet stretch of the Southern Catskills — a working property with a pond, gardens, and grounds you won't find from the road. No signage, no crowd.

For these two nights, the entire property is bought out for the cohort — every building, every trail, every inch of it. No other guests. Just the sixteen of you, the grounds, and the ride ahead.

FOUNDERS WAVE RETREAT

Two nights. Sixteen riders. One May.

The first Stable cohort — a weekday retreat built for riders who want more than a garage to keep the machine in. Every rider gets their own private room; upgrade to a fully private accommodation — the whole unit to yourself — for $300.

The next Founders Wave runs on weekdays in May 2027. Exact dates and sign-up details go to the list first, so join the list below.

ALSO ON THE PROPERTY

Ride in. Plug in.

Outlier Inn is a working recording studio as much as it is a retreat — two full rooms, real gear, and lodging on-site. If your crew rides together and plays together, you can book studio time for an additional daily rate on top of the retreat.

Not part of the Founders Wave package — available separately, for riders who want to extend the trip into a session. Inquire for rates.

THE GROUNDS — RETREATS, RENTALS, AND EVENTS
BEFORE YOU ASK

A few things worth knowing.

What's actually included in the $1,250?

Two nights' lodging, a private room, full run of the property (it's bought out for the cohort — no other guests), on-site sauna, outdoor barrel hot tub, massage, and a private chef cooking for the group.

Can I bring a passenger, or come as a couple?

Yes — the 16-rider cap is 16 bikes, not 16 people. A passenger riding with you is +$400, covering their meals and general property use for the weekday retreat, and you'll share the private room already included in your rate. If you'd rather have the whole unit to yourselves with no other rider sharing common areas, the +$300 fully-private-unit upgrade applies here too.

Do I need to be an experienced rider?

You don't need to be an expert. You do need to be comfortable riding with a group. We ask about riding experience at sign-up so the pace and route can be planned around who's actually in the cohort.

What accommodations will I get?

Outlier Inn has twelve real accommodation options — dome, guest house, loft, cottage, bungalow, Airstream, and more — assigned first-come, first-served among confirmed riders. Every rider gets a private room; a fully private unit is available for +$300.

Can my whole crew book together?

Yes — group rate available for parties of 6 or more riders. Inquire for pricing.

Can I record music while I'm there?

Outlier Inn runs two working recording studios on-site, bookable separately from the retreat for riders who want to extend the trip into a session. See studio details.
