October 18-21. Heber Springs. I'm getting a cabin for everyone so there will be a limit on beds. Not that I expect anyone new to show up, but let me know if you plan on attending. Cabin price will be split by everyone per person for 3 nights. I've already posted on facebook and texted the usual suspects.

I'm gonna try and make it this year. I'm still "wearin the shiny" off of the new girlfriend but I do wanna come down and ride with you fellas. Count me in as a "definate probably".  And I'll talk to my boy about coming again. He bought a Tbird earlier this year but his work schedule limits him.

 https://www.vrbo.com/7178420ha#summaryThey won't send me an actual address until 2 weeks out but you can see the approximate location on the map of the lake. Remember, this is someone's house and not a motel, so we'll actually have to treat it somewhat respectable like. I didn't tell them it's a motorcycle group, I wanted to make sure they'd accept my reservation

Wow nice place! Hey I’m always respectful of other people’s property. I can’t vouch for the rest of the group though.

Just over a month to go! I need to collect deposits from some of you for the house still, 100 bucks now and we'll settle the balance that weekend. I do paypal and venmo, or you can mail a check. Message me to work out arrangements, thanks!

Na I just like to know where I'm staying. Not that I'm attending this rally. Airbnb and all the other vacation sites have this listing btw... Funny how all these places think they are coy in not providing an address. Loads of them even are so naive they have pictures with a street number. No they shouldn't publish their address, but when one lays out $$$ that is the point of disclosure. Reciprocity such as it is. Quote:

No Grape shine is good, since he probably uses Grape Crush instead of real grapes.

Repacked my baffles and cleaned my air filters yesterday, might replace my leaky neutral switch before the rally but aside from that my bike is ready to go. As for myself, I am more than ready to hit the road next weekend!

Leaky neutral switch? What leaks out of it?  My Bird is always ready to go. It’s pretty much maintenance free. Donny is probably already packed.

It leaks oil, like a proper Triumph. Since Kent can't make it to the rally this year, my 17 year old bike is the last of the old guard. It requires some maintenance occasionally. Especially the way I beat on it.

I’m packed and ready to go in the morning. It will be good to get away from the everyday toil and grind of retirement.
