Sorry me and Kimmy missed it...we talked about it and came to the conclusion that it's simply too far for either one of us to ride to feel beneath some members. We are simple people, that, like everyone else, enjoys to get in on conversations and enjoy each others company, but I guess it's like any other club or organization, you have to do your "time" in order to rub elbows or be "in" certain company...Which is fine, and we understand. This was my 3rd Georgia Rally, last May, and we both felt like strangers around certain people, and felt like we had to pay some kind of "due" to even be acknowledged by them, and decided once a year is enough for the two of us. We fit in fine with the people that want to fit in with us, and thats plenty...Glad everyone had a good time, and no one was hurt...





I understand what you're saying, but I haven't experienced that at any of the three rallies I've attended. Sure, I've had moments in which I felt out of place, and have had some "What the f*** am I even doing here?" moments, but nobody from this site has ever made me feel unwelcome at any time. My experience at the rallies has been the complete opposite: everyone has been friendly and welcoming even though I'm probably as far from the "biker" image as you can get. I'm not trying to invalidate what you're saying, just pointing out that my experience has been different.

Ride safe,

Will

Edit: Sorry; I didn't see the Rudolph thread in the lounge until just a minute ago. By the way, I really hate that I missed out on NH this year. I was looking forward to the ride up there and seeing everybody. After some things that happened here, though, I just couldn't leave. I'll have to add NH to my "bucket list." Great photos Moe and Ed!
