Along with Jeff Evans(you remember our neighbor Jeff and his wife Irene from the SWTFs, I'm sure), I'll be there this year again, Bob. This'll be Jeff's first time goin' to the Hansen Dam meet. I've been tellin' him how great this rally is.
Lookin' forward to seein' you and AmyLee again.
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Great, sounds like fun. We plan on staying at the Valencia Travel Village(I need to make reservations) about twenty miles away, and arrive on Friday. That gives us Saturday to explore the area, like maybe Malibu and the Rock Store. If you want ride Saturday, think of a meeting point. Bob

Jeff and I won't be arriving in L.A. until about 3 or 4pm that Saturday, Bob. I also wanted to stop by and see Matt Capri's new locale for his South Bay Triumph there in Lomita. And so, unfortunately the timing for a Rock Store visit that day won't be in the cards for us. However, I'm thinkin' on the Sunday of the Hansen Dam ride, once we get back from Acton, and if we don't stop back at the Hansen Dam parking lot gathering place again for any length of time afterward, we could all ride directly to the Rock Store after that. Tell ya what. We'll work somethin' out here.

Sounds good Dwight, we'll see you and Jeff at the "Dam" parking lot on Sunday. Have a safe trip over.  Bob

I will be there this year too. Look forward to seeing you there. Missed last year for work. Took a vacation day to be there this year. Can't wait. Really looking forward to meeting some fellow ba.com members. Missed you last time Dwight. That was 2 years ago.

We'll be looking for you Rick, it may be a challenge getting together with 800 expected Brit Bikes and riders running around. See you there.

Great hearin' from ya, "Stranger"!!!
Glad to hear you'll be there at Hansen Dam on Sunday.
Jeff and I will be stayin' at my friend Phil's house in Bell Canyon, which is at the far western edge of the San Fernando Valley, so we'll have to meet up there at the Hansen Dam parking lot. I don't know if you've ever met Phil, but he's the guy who has that great collection of about 15 classic motorcycles in his garage.
Lookin' forward to catchin' up with how you're doin'. Are you plannin' on ridin' that beautiful Norton Fastback to this shindig?
And btw, that Venice Vintage thing seems like it has really taken off these last couple years too. I've never made it to that one, but maybe that's 'cause I think they started that up just a few years ago and maybe just as I moved to Prescott. There's a slight possibility Jeff and I can maybe catch the tail end of that shindig on Saturday, though "slight" is the operative word here.

Made it in to the Valencia Travel village RV Park. The drive over the Grapevine on I-5 was a bit cold and windy, but the temps here are good. Looking forward to a nice weekend riding, hopefully the weather will cooperate. AmyLee
