Mark, this isn't directed to you but kinda because of you and Matt and Yota and etc.
A note for all you ladies out there as the yutes are, well, yutes.

Take care young ladies and value your wine.
Be watchful of young men in their velvet prime.
Deeply they'll swallow from your finest kegs,
Then swiftly be gone, leaving bitter dregs.
Ah, bitter dregs

Perhaps Pat should pass out Louisville Sluggers to the more august attendees to keep the yoots in line?

Good for me, come on over. I gotta work some of the daze, but feel free to start early. You might get some of the beer I made then...

FYI for those looking to learn something other than a new drinking game...  Since Matt and I are trailering there, my bike will be stone cold when I arrive thursday night, so that sounds like as good a time as any for a valve check! Wohoo! We hope to get there by 8ish, for anyone wanting to watch/help.

You can play any game you want as long as it is not within a 20 ft radius of my bike.

And you have obviously forgotten about the annual "Projectile Vomitting Contest." Last year's winner, and still champ, Matt, has been practicing a lot for the event.

The only way anyone could be too late for the rally is if they say they will be there after it happens. The more the merrier.

Alright Buttercup, if I have to clean ANY bodily fluids off my bike you'll wake up spooning with Yota. Mary, we could use a few more voices of reason around

One Sheetload plus 4.  Looks like we have about 60-70 people threatening to show up. I invited some other locals as well. I still have about 22 gallons of beer but it looks like we may end up making beer runs as well. That's ok, it's way cheaper than in Georgia and miles closer with great selections. Maybe Jaymo will even show up. I got the final parts needed yesterday and Matt and I are going to try to get the bike together in the next few days.
And Mary, of course you're welcome and I have enough spare shirts and patches so no sweat, I'll put you on the shirt list too.
Amd Mark, that would be Canandaigua Lake by the way, not the other way around. Maybe I can get my brother to take some of you for boat rides on the lake, when he's not cooking for us that is.

Hey Pat, I spent the afternoon fabricating plexi-glass backing plates for my Saddlemen bags. They were just starting to tear, and I didn't want them to end up like yours did.
Big Poppy, LJ3000, and I should be to your place mid to late afternoon on Thursday. Happy Hour!
I can't wait to get on the road! Uncle Charlie

Pat, looks like I will be sending up a care package as well. It will contain the parts to do a "shim job" on my scoot. Afraid I didn't plan that time very well, so I figured I would just add it to Benny's shim adjustment... now we can have two classes and noone will feel left out  . I can't wait for the rally, I really need this vacation... ride safe...Gordon
