Yes! I'm bringing a couple friends myself. Don't forget to post in the t-shirt/patch thread, and there is a thread floating around here somewhere with just hotel info.

Hmmm... tough to call at this point, but so far,(I think)
Me +2
Elfwolf
BigJack
bigtexas
Calkins
arstaren
Fasteddy
airguy
and hopefully roadworthy and biker.(they're not sure yet)
I'm probably leaving someone out though. And I think almost everyone is bringing at least 1 friend/significant other. And some more people will hopefully jump in once we get closer to summer.

That would be a nice perk, but the price would probably go up quite a bit! I hear craigslist could help us out though if needed!

The cruise sounds great. Count me in. And I'll pass on the "young ladies package", both because I'm cheap and my wife is sure to frown on it, and finally,  because she'll be there.

Just found out about this through a link from the triumphrat site. Forewarded info to our local Triumph dealer in Dubuque IA. (approx. 6 miles from Timmermans) and to our local RAT Pack leaders.

For some reason the state thinks that I need to pay for the ex-wife's repoed car. I AM NOT HAPPY!!!!! So, we'll see what the next few weeks brings me. I've heard both ends of what I could get garnished from my paycheck. Either I won't notice what they take because I'm on the line or 25% for her loan and the 25% I'm already paying for childsupport. If I had to choose, I'd take the first...

Couple of the old guard would like to join in.
ModelMaker & Maurice are gonna meet up again and ride with the TBA's. We both joined up in '02 with new TBA's. I've still got Bonnie but Larry has had more bikes than I've had new underwear. He's on a Hardly now, but a classy one though.
Justin, get that crap takin care of without sellin the bike dude. I thought we might hook up for the ride to Timmermans.

That would be great, we can do that. I'll probably still go. I think I can score a Yami XS750 cheap. Does it count it count that this bike copied the Trident? If all else fails, I'll ride my dirt bike!! Ha
