I wish I could be there boys, but with a license suspension, I can't go anywhere. I would have loved to meet up with you livinginh, and cruising the rest of the way with you. Next year guys next year.

So, is there a centralized location or is everyone just going to run into each other riding around Galena? 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Hey, if anyone has a spare throttle tube laying around and can bring it, I sure would appreciate getting it from you. Mine broke a little over 100 miles out and we had to do some emergency surgery roadside to make it here.

Just got home. Took stage coach trail on the way out of town, what a great road. Took 3 hrs to get home. Missed you guys pulling out this morning, the sound of your bikes served as my alarm clock. I was watching the weather channel in the hotel this morning and western Missouri and western Iowa looked pretty bad. Hope everyone made it home safe without getting pelted with heavy rains.
My wife and I both had a great time and are glad we could meet so many cool people. I'm already thinking about next year!

mmmm, delicious assorted appetizers! Made it home safely, it rained for the last 60 miles or so. Had a great time, it went by too quickly. Had fun, and it was good to meet and befriend all of you that came, and to see my old friends again. What a great turnout for a first rally!!  Big thanks to KaiserSoze for getting it all together!

My first rally with you guys was more than I expected. Meeting you all was a great pleasure and the the friendliness was next to none.
Thanks again Kaisor for putting it all together. You did a great job...especially for that being your first event.
Looking forward to seeing many of you again at the ark rally.

To KaiserSoze... Thanks for setting the rally up and for all the coordination that went along with it. I had a great time (as did my brother-in-law and friend) riding and meeting all the people that attended. The weekend definitely went by far too fast!

Still not quite home yet, sitting in Clear Lake, Iowa (after my detour to Columbia, MO) but have to say that it was a great rally...Scott, you pulled it off well! Thanks to eddy for the good deal shirts and freebies...
To the Missouri crew.....my route worked out well...actually I had to alternate the plan slightly and head farther west in Iowa before heading south into Missouri, but only got 3 or 4 drops of rain! Ran on wet roads all the way from the Iowa border down, but no rain.......sweet........

Yeah, you would have gotten wet if you rode with us, you came in behind the storm, we hit the tail end of it.
