I need a new shirt, are any being arranged for this getaway?

Yes, they usually have shirts for EOM.

I'm going to try and make it down. Just finished a 700 mile trip, which I know isn't a lot for some you, but I'm still getting used to longer rides again. Man, I miss being 20, lol...

Look forward to meeting some of you fine folks!

I may be stuck with making the 650 mile run after work on Thursday... But planning to do one of Lee's EOM 500 routes on Friday

Dan - found you... I accidentally left the EOM registration published while doing some live testing and I see you found it. I may have to refund your order because I have not completely finalized costs and rally fees yet, and I have a few bugs to work out with the shipping options in the storefront.

Did the order process smoothly for you? Were there any issues with moving through the shopping cart and into paypal for payment?

thanks in advance for the feedback...

Damn it! I was thinking about a combination EOM / SFO ride in late September but it looks like I got roped into riding the Black Hills with the Dakota Dual Sport Riders this weekend. I introduced a friend to Black Hills Dual Sport riding this spring at the spring rally and I promised him I would go back to the fall rally not knowing it was going to work out to be the same weekend as EOM. I'm glad I was able to attend South East Ohio this spring and see a few folks in Spearfish because riding plans aren't working out so good as far as seeing FJR friends this year.

Bummer - but on the up side, it means there is less of a chance that the local Po-Po will show up looking for you at the hotel (again)...

2 years ago, in Wytheville, VA. Kevin and Lisa pulled into the hotel's parking lot with no less than 4 police cars in tow...however no performance awards were issued.

That beats my record of 3 cops/no tickets.

Stories always age well and get better with time, but it was only three squad cars and a white pickup full of angry people who dropped the dime claiming we were doing something foolish like passing on a double yellow.

Police were totally cool and did their best to make it appear to the complainant like they were doing their job to enforce traffic safety. When the police finally caught up to us I realized Lisa and I were doing 50 in a 35 right before we turned into the hotel. I thought our goose was cooked getting caught speeding as we turned into the hotel but by the time we parked the bike three of them were there.

 

[Uncle Hud]

******* biker hooligans. The red bike was obviously the instigator, and he conned a WOMAN into that anti-social behavior!

 

[bigjohnsd]

I could believe Lisa was involved with something like this, but a MSF instructor/supervisor from Nor Dakoda, not in a million years. JSNS

If that picture is not a candidate for a "caption this" contest, I don't know what is...
