Let's revive this from last year (haulinashe's idea).

There's already quite a few folks on the road, so if you're running solo, this will give us a place to start is you're MIA.

Please post up here as you arrive so we can keep track as best possible. If you should run into any difficulties on the road, give us a call: 8-4-3-2-6-3-2-5-5-3 (extrememarine) and we'll see how we can help.

No specific format, just what you are comfortable posting for the world to see:

**EDIT: We made it to the Brier Inn! There's a good amount of riders here already, should be a good turn out this year.

We are in Parkersburg, WV for the night. Made it in around 6pm, and cyclebabble just showed up, so we're rolling out in the morning for Breakfast /w Thompsonian and then on to L'burg via WV-47 & WV-20(subject to change).

Wayne Reeves (extrememarine)

Depart Florence SC at around 8am Friday, mix back roads and slab to taste.

Arrive around 5pm depending on how much we screw around and how many time I get hit in the back of the head by the Capt.

Why I purchased the twin headsets. She can cuss me with out hitting, because when she hits I jump about 4 inches off the seat. Besides it's not good for the ole ticker!!

Great WX, great roads, looking forward to seeing everyone. In #262 for now, but splitting with Mike (gasportrider) tomorrow. Are you out there Mike?
