When and where exactly is the Buffalo checkpoint? That's my backyard...

All on the IBR website here.

They also turned up the 2011 specific website here. Besides including the Daily Dispatches....it looks like they're going to have an aggregated SPOT tracking page enabled that show undisclosed ducks flying around North America.

I think I will ride down Saturday morning

I am on vacation for the majority of the rally, so I will have all kinds of time to read reports and check out the Spotwalla link. NICE!!

Too cool to have the IBR come through Buffalo, but I guess I'll have to miss them this year as I will be in Salt Lake City for...some other rally...when they pass through.

Tailwinds to all the 2011 IBR riders and have a fun and safe rally!!!

Cool pics! But I want to see photos of the participants with the 'freaking out' faces! :lol:

Best of luck to all you crazy idiots! Who the hell would do something so nuts?

I was a little frazzled this morning but I'm better now...

Not sure if anyone got any pictures tho... Sorry to disappoint you.

Hope you'll be at the finish Greg M!

Nice to meet you Greg G!

 

[Panman]

I'll be headed down tomorrow to send them off and take a few pic's.

I think the Trident is about a 1969 vintage if I remember from reading the blog on it. It's no Slippery Sam with that old Windjammer III but cool anyhow.

Went out and started mine the other day just because.

Rode over from Wenatchee this morning to check out the bikes and folks. Had a chance to talk with a few familiar faces. Met a couple of new ones. Doug55 was having a little trouble getting his bike started, seems he left something on :angry2: Takes 4 or 5 big guys to get it going fast enough. Think everyone was ready, just a waiting game for now. Panman, get some good shots tommorow.

I just got back from working on the riders doing some massage work, I plan on going tomorrow morning to watch the start.
