Well shucks y'all.. looks like it's about that time again. Looking forward to seeing some old faces and hopefully some new ones. Don't know how many more years we've got to get together so lets make them all count... starting with this one. I'm thinking May the 20th will be a good start to a good weekend of friends and riding. Hope to see you all there.

So... where is this event based? (Please don't respond "Georgia")!
The ride may be fun, but in the Great Scheme of things, it really is about the destination! John 3:16

Yep, reckon we have curfew around here. Snuck in a ride after work tonight, dusky dark I figured I'd have it to myself but there were quite a few people out and about. I saw 4 motorcycles too.. guess they had similar ideas about a Friday evening. It felt real good to ride again. It's been awhile since I've ridden much but in light of recent world events I thought I'd better start appreciating life a little more. Tough times we're living in, tomorrow is promised to no one.

Saturday ride report... the things I do for you guys. Saturday morning I got out and about for a run up to Wolf Pen gap. Hwy 19n is not in great shape from Stone Pile on up to the top of the mountain.. lots of patchwork and construction going on. Still haven't figured out what they are trying to accomplish at the Stone pile intersection but they still have some major work going on there. Wolf Pen and hwy 60 were in great shape though, it was a very nice ride. Lots of folks were at TWO when I rode by so it seems they are open for business. All in all it was a beautiful day and a great ride... wish y'all could have been there.

Well I guess by now you folks have figured out that we are not going to be getting together next month for the rally.. sux I know but it seems it's just not going to be possible. We do want to possibly look at the fall season this year though.. maybe September but again we will just have to see how things go. So for now all of you take care out there, stay safe and healthy till we meet again on down the road. (bummer I don't have my little motorcycle riding smiley dude anymore,)

2020 has been a terrible year for me. I took a fall at work (8 feet from a 737-700) was out for the first 12 weeks of the year, now this stupid virus.

Haha ! I read the wrong thread (2019 maybe...) and thought the '20 Rally was back on...……...showed up at the Pole Barn, Chy, Di and a dog greeted me. Then I rode to a clothing optional resort. Overall it was a great rally ! Next year ! I'm going to crawl under a cover...….the shame and horror...….
