Never too early to start making plans 
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

We usually have a pretty good time. We're not associated with the MMR you linked to, mostly triumphs with a couple other brands sprinkled in.

Maybe this year will be the year; it's on my calendar now, we'll see how that works out.

I know. Just kidding with the name change. Does this mean all my old T-shirts are now collectors items since they bear the old name?

Looks like I'll have plenty of PTO saved up for the 3550 mi round trip ride to sunny CA in May & the 2013 GR3 in June. I'm in barring some unforseen logistical issues.  I was wondering if there was a plan for Tee shirts? Still bugged we didn"t have one for the 2012 MW rally.

I don't know if they're collectors items, but I bet you could sell them to Karl for a handsome profit.

Since you are all coming back to the La Crosse Area let me know if you need any help with organizing anything local beforehand. I already put in for the whole weekend off since I know the dates already.

I was thinking we could do another Rudy's trip and/or go to a Logger's baseball game if people were interested in doing it. I could arrange group tickets for the baseball game.
