Well, taking a head count we had 42 bikes signed up for the 2010 SW-FOG, with at least one additional rider Pinheads wife (Kyndall). So far there have been four individuals that have stated they will not be able to make this years SW-FOG. Although sorry when anyone decides they will not be able to make the trip for whatever reason, there are always circumstances when one may not be able to make a ride. I know this has happened to me a couple of times.
There are others that made it last year that will not be able to make it this year. I will miss seeing Beemerdon and Niehart all curled up together in the hot-tub with a drink in each hand.
And maybe there's some that might make it, ifn the stars align....

 
What that means is it's ******* cold in the mornings and some people may freeze their little balls off. It will gradually warm up to the point that mid-afternoon will be warm enough to make a person sweat their balls off. Then, it will cool down again starting about 6pm and stay cool for the entire night...At which time, a person may drink their balls off. Either way, a couple of people coming will probably be leaving without any balls.
LOL!

Sounds unavoidable....

:)
Hey Russ, buck up and come on over and see for yourself!
Hey, they're my balls.....

BwanaDik: +50, 5X Gunny! Brother Russ, it would be wonderful if you could make it to SW-FOG 2010! It is only 765 miles from Alma to Taos. Hell's Bell's, your neighbors Petey in Oklahoma and Nosecone over en Tejas ride 765 miles before they stop for breakfast each morning!

Russ, I'm rubbing my lucky rabbit's foot for you, so you can get those old stars to align so you can make SW-FOG! Old Michael and Big-D are also rubbing something, but it's not a rabbit's foot! jes' sayin'

Brother Russ: Trust me, if it wasn't for Bad Luck, I wouldn't have any Luck at all!!!

I'd rather be lucky than good....

Hey Russ, just think of the fun we could have! I think I can find a banquet or something to try and get kicked out of! :unsure:

Hope to see you brother!

 
It is with My Greatest Pride and Pleasure to Announce that SW-FOG 2010 will have a Very Special Guest: El Embajador de Irlandes - The Irish Ambassador, will be holding court in Taos, New Mexico. The Right and Honorable M. O'Keeffe, of Dublin, Eire, will grace us with his presence at SW-FOG this upcoming weekend. Personal autographs for the paltry fee of $10 will be available; back rubs for just $25!
Well I'm glad OM has made it official and finally convinced BeemerDon to allow him to attend for the small fee of 50% of his take on autographs & back rubs!

 
Russ get your *** in gear and do it. I'll promise not to put my empty beer bottle in the center of the table this time. Hmmm.... I had it in a brown paper bag and I think we were going to light it up at SFO. Naaah. I don't think I would ever do that. All kidding aside it would be great to see you and your SO again.

I guess I missed a post somewhere along the line. At what point did Beemerdons decide he wasn't making the trip? Was looking forward to meeting you.

Oh yes...... BeemerDon is attending this years SW-FOG. You couldn't beat him away with a stick!

You will have your chance to meet him and buy him a drink!

In fact, you can buy his friends a drink too!!

ALRIGHT, EVERYBODY: SW-FOG 2010 is just four days away. So, if you live 2K miles away from Taos all it will take you is four easy-peasy 500 mile FJR days to ride here. Rooms are still available and Saturday banquet dinners can still be purchased, when you arrive at the Best Western Kachina Lodge. 1-800-522-4462,

The weather report is Clear, Cool mornings and warm afternoons. It's been around 32 in the mornings up there, so it will be a little chilly when kick stands go up, but warm up around 10. We went up to the BMW gathering in Sipapu this last weekend. The "Old High Road to Taos" between Truchas and Penasco in under construction and is one lane for a short spell and dirt/gravel for about 2.5 miles. not too bad to navigate un-less you follow a water truck through. See you all there!

Noted! Was planning on hitting that one. Perhaps work will be on hold over the weekend days? Regardless, thanks for the update.

 
Tomorrow morning early I hit the road. I plan on an over-night stay in Albuquerque Tuesday night, then riding up the 550 to Cuba Wednesday morning before turning on the 96 to the 84 north to the 64 south into Taos. Total distance on my second day will be about 200 miles. Should arrive Taos around noon allowing for multiple stops and taking my time.

If HRZ is reading this, I remember a big portion of the time I lived in Albuquerque the interchange of I-40 & I-25 was under construction. I think I was able to enjoy that completion for about a year after it was completed.

My wife worked at 1st State Bank in downtown. I went to pick her up one day because her car was having some warranty work done and I was parked in the under ground parking waiting for her to get off work. Suddenly all of these cops come pouring in the parking area in cars, bicycles and on foot with guns drawn because I found out later an alarm had gone off and here I sit looking like a get-away vehicle and all of these guns are pointed at me, thinking "oh ****, I didn't do it"! Needless to say, everything turned out cool.

My wife got pissed when I told her we were moving from Albuquerque to Lake Havasu. To this day, she still would like to get out of this heat and move back to Albuquerque. I remember getting into arguments with working buddies that were assigned in Florida over which city is actually older, St. Augustine or Albuquerque. Although St. Augustine FL is stated as the oldest town in the country, I think Albuquerque is actually older because I worked with people that their families had been in the Albuquerque area for hundreds of years. After some investigation, I found that St. Augustine is older when stated as a town consistently occupied. However, Albuquerque was inhabited by the Romans as early as 218 B.C.

Albuquerque has tons of history.

This trip is going to be really cool. Although the SW-FOG is being held in Taos, all of New Mexico is really cool if you are into history.
