VBMC Ralley in Leesburg. Oct 5th.
http://www.virginiabritishmotorcycleclub.org/rally.htm

Always a good event. I'll be there either on my America or God willing my '66 project. There's also a nice event this Sunday in Thurmont MD - the "Nostalgia Run".

Bunch of the Baltimore RATS and Baltimore Renegades guys are going. My '66 project still has issues, so I'll probably be on my America. I usually park in the show field (cost is the same, you get a free event pin, why not).
Red America with bags, solo seat & Memphis Shades shield, look me up.
Snekepete will probably be with me as well and a few of our buddies.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to sit this one out.

Look for a pair of black Speedmasters in the show field and you will find me and Mike(BBQSpeedmaster)

I'm thinking about making the trip. Looking to see if anyone is heading up from Richmond that I could possibly join up with.

Kendall: Think I met you right? (it's Al/ssjones)
UKBacon: How about a shot of your bike, not sure I knew which one was yours.

I took some pix, stored at this site. I'm a big old style chopper fan, so it's mostly chops.

The black/gold with girder UK posted has been in my buddy's garage for most of the summer. It needed a lot of repairs. Hopefully my '66 is on deck to get roadworthy.

SSjones,

I think we did meet. Were you the guy next to the guy from Ohio that I parked behind in the parking lot field. I was riding the P. Blue on A. Blue BA.

Not exactly up to speed on those acronyms, but I think that was me. I'm terrible with names. I had a blue Triumph sweatshirt on or a black "British Rules" Ratfink shirt when it warmed up....(Red/Silver America)
