Not sure if I can make it, work schedule, so it will be a wait and see. Things may change, so it will be a last minute thing with me. I hope to know a few weeks before the ride.

Just heard on the news that a motorcyclist and passenger ended up in a ditch after colliding with a bear . The collision happened near Lake Leatherwood (Eureka Springs). The riders are okay and the bear ran away.
Soooooo , the "Hog" could not take the Bear ? It didn't run off , just mosied back to Waco...

The bears are nice and fluffy this time of year... hog probably just bounced off.

Paul, is there a plan to do shirts or hoodies again? Not that we necessarily have to, just curious.

Given the new date, maybe we should do heated riding vests with the logo.

If you guys don't mind having a Beemer among you, then I'm in this year. I'm bringing a buddy with me who will be riding my Speedy.

If we can put up with Donny on his Harley we can certainly handle you and your Beemer, John.  I'm glad you and your buddy can make it.

Donny, this not so subtle drift away from the Triumph brand is beginning to concern me. You may need some counseling at the rally with the help of many therapeutic beers.

Okay, I guess that means we will have to put you and JC at the front of the rides and we'll catch up later. That is except for Roadworthy who will be blowing by me at Mach I.

Naaah... I'm not a fast rider even on the Beemer. Things a beast, and it does best on the straights given it's size.

If he's only hitting Mach 1, he must have forgotten to wipe off some of his chrome...

Ya'll have a fun rally. Sorry I can't make it, used all my time and money to go to Yellowstone and Sturgis.
And I give a big thumbs up to Gerbin's heated jacket liners. I got one this spring and now I'll save up for the gloves.
Do not look back and ask why, look forward and ask, why not?

Well, Y'all. I am out for this year. Sitting here with the wife looking at budgets and schedules and a kid still in a sling from her shoulder surgery who would be home for a week by herself. I sure will miss riding with y'all and seeing all those leaves, but this is the right thing to do... really.

Sorry Thom. As long as I'm still kicking there will probaby be another one next year. Taking care of your family, like you said, it's the right thing to do.
