I feel as if people have been talking behind my back since this is the first mention of it I've heard and I don't recall sleeping any where near you John.  Yes I snore, very loudly from what I understand, I wouldn't know, I always sleep right through it. Maybe I should try some breathe right nasal srtips
Let my dying thought be that every mile was fun and let my tombstone read,"They never made one fast enough for me."

Keith + copious amounts of Bourbon = Snoreguy. I can wake the dead but they can't wake me. Your snoring won't bother me one way or the other Tim. As for the other folks, I guess they are on their own. By the by, thanks for the offer of a place to crash for an evening.  I will look into where to fly. If I am burning miles I need to fly United. I will check into which airports they go into. I don't think they go into Manchester but that would be nice 'cuz then I could fly outta' Midway.
Ride On!

I was worried about her picking it up on the streets instead of in a controlled environment. Imagine that phone call at 2:00am

And it could all be avoided...

I've never been given a nickname but me + copious amounts of any alcohol = heavy snoring as well.
I used to have a girl friend who would sleep on the couch if I fell asleep first because if I was first to fall asleep she wouldn't ge to sleep a wink.

If Keith snores HALF as loud as he talks, you're in for it...  Seriously, remind me of the sleeping accomodations? Convincing the wife might be easier if I knew what we were in for

well just got back from the camp (well last weekend) It was snowing like crazy (whiteout conditions) on the way up Friday night... This year the care taker is living on site...in the apartment that connects to the main building....so the Drinking willl have to be VERY VERY descrete!!!!  As always smoking in any of the buildings is a no-no  (although last year we did manage a cigar by the fireplace in the barn...but even that may be difficult this year.... hey its their place and their rules...they give it to us for a song...and other than those requests (and not burning the place down) thats really the only restrictions they place on us... so if those rule don't work for you...well you know... Winter festivities are still being planned but as with last year they depend upon OM Winter actually presenting us with some snow!!! Things to bring if you own them....and there is snow Snow shoes X Country skis Down hill skis (there are a few ski areas with in 1 hour or less) BOOTS FOR THE SNOW!!! toboggans/sleds Ice skates (if the lake is iced in there will deffinately be skating available) other appropriate winter outdoor clothing As with last year the final $$$ will be determined by the head count...and if we can keep Lee on a tight leash with the food ...you WILL NOT go home hungry!!!

As mentioned discretion is key . I'm keeping things quite isn't going with out . Just remember we'll have to be on our best behavior . As for the food , no problem just let me know if anyone has any strong dislikes or allergies . As we get closer I'll put out the word on a probable menu looking for your comments , and yes there will be a surprise or two .
shut up and ride

Well Mother Nature Just dumped a big fat pile of snow all over New England...the area where we intend to play was forcasted for 10"-18" of the ****** stuff, as of this typing I have yet to get a confirmed total from the camp, but I do know that Gilford (a little town south and east of the 'jackpot' area where the camp is) has a confirmed 9" of the white stuff...
This does NOT bode well for further riding this year...but it DOES bode well for the winter rally and the "snow sports" planned for it!
