May 16 thru 19.. same old place and hopefully lots of familiar faces.
Awfully pretty this weekend... getting to be the season for it.

Yes, I actually got out this weekend. Felt like a zombie after 6 /8 weeks inside. In years past I've been lucky enough to ride 12 months out of the year with breaks in the weather.
Not this winter, rain constantly, snow, cold and my bones hurt
I'll see you good people in May.
Anyone looking to split motel room and fees let me know.
reservations made 2 nights in Asheville on the way down.
be in dahlonega wednesday or thursday
i should be there thursday night
Asheville is a pretty town, I just passed through one afternoon on a long journey home but it was a nice .
Just booked at the Quality Inn 16th-19th
A long time forgotten the dreams they just fell by the way. Hope to be there.
And not have to dine at mickyDs the next morning !
If you live on the road, well there's a new highway code
You take the urban noise with some dirt with poison
It's gonna lessen your load
30 days in the hole
I would love to go however about three years ago I was diagnosed with end stage renal failure.I also went through prostate cancer which thankfully I was treated for and cured.I go to dialysis three times a week,Monday, Wednesday and Friday which leaves me with a small time window to attend a weekend rally.I am on the kidney transplant list which hopefully I will recieve a kidney soon.Really miss the rallies and my Triumph brothers.Hope you all have a safe and fun time.Really miss you guys.Maybe next year...sigh..
Charles, seems you've had a tough go as of late. Rest up , get better and we'll see ya next year

Nobody knows how to post pictures here anymore, Newt. Then again I never did.
But we did smile.....Oh, by the way, that spankin' new Speedmaster is off to the salvage auction yard. She totaled it Memorial Day. Bummer.

dang Wade Im sorry to hear that. Is she okay ?
Yeah, sorta. She had spinal surgery and hobbling with a walker. I'm a Walker too, but I don't hobble, I sorta bounce around like a meth squirrel. Minimal road rash but no broken bones, just a low back injury, L-2,3,4. Bikes are replaceable. Hourglass has a '19 just like it still in the crate.
Brother you are being a bit too cryptic. Did both of you go down in the same accident? Same bike, different bike ?
Oh, I'm sorry. Yes, two bikes. We were on a Patriot Guard event on Memorial Day, and riding back, she pulled out in front of a car and got clipped. I was on Lola and she was on the '18. I helplessly saw the whole scenario.
Wowzer, glad she's still with us. Hope she heals quickly and is 100%.
Sorry to hear, hope she has a speedy recovery.
Dang hope she is getting along. Walkers are cumbersome. No not you...
When she graduates to a cane, get a nice wood un. Not one of those fugly aluminium ones. Hugs to all!
I paid 13,600 before fees for that '18. They want the same for a '19 just like it. Found an identical '18 in Olathe, Kansas for 10,700. Gonna go pick it up in a couple of weeks......she's sloooowwly getting better, retired the aluminum walker yesterday.
What's the Friday ride and when ? Saturday ?
