Looks like my saddle bag from the Vermont trip KJ. I remember popping a beer on the closure when I put them in. Good capacity in them-there hard bags!I've been known to side store a couple of "pounders" on occasion... and yes, I know Fred, not your beer of choiceI'll have to wait till the last min. before I can commit for sure. Im usually very busy in the spring as I work a second job on weekends and evenings June thru July. But, I still managed to sneak up on you feckers last year though. Soo, dont be shocked if I just "show up" in parking lot with my top case full off ice and beer(grinnin at the thought of it). For safety sake I carry the beer in the side case for high speed travel (keeping a low center of gravity and all) and tranfer to top case upon arrival. This info is mostly for the NEW guys and gals. And dont forget....."ride your own ride" Although my buddy and I were the only ones camping last year we had a great time. I would also like to take part in Bob's Appalacian camping meet a mere 4 weeks after this one. The scheduling for all these events is really good IMHO Cant wait to see yall again

I remember the Yami demo day, that morning we came outside to rain. I saw a real gloomy look on Mike's face, went over and said "bro, it's OK. I know it's the first time your bike has been rained-on right?". Mike sadly said "yes". I turned to him and gave him a big man-hug and said how sorry I was and how it would be OK, the tight little virgin can get washed and spit polished when we get back.
He took it like he had to! lol. Mikey has been in "the fun bunch" ever since.

Speaking of the fun bunch, Stan(Lee) says he's not getting taking any more golden showers from "the bunch"... especially now that he's not riding that Kow-a-sucki NO-MO!

Got a reply from Tom (Tstaff) today...
"I'd love to be able to make it but my sons travel baseball team looks like its going to take every weekend from April to July. I do keep an eye on the forum & will hope to catch up with you guys on one of the rides."
Doesn't look like he's gonna be able to make this one.

I'm still emotionally scarred. Not from my bike getting wet, but from the "big man hug". Ha![Huntsville]I remember the Yami demo day, that morning we came outside to rain.

Thank goodness WNYFJR got us outta there! But you have to admit, the Niagara Parkway was pretty sweet!
At least we don't have to pass the US Customs trolls to get to SE Ohio!
So, I know it's still a good ways away, and don't expect them to necessarily be ready yet, but will there be any GPS routes made available to the hoards for Friday and Saturday group riding? Or did I miss that announcement in the prior 17 pages somewhere? I don't need a tee shirt or a coffee mug, but it might be good to know where the f*** we're going?
Or it this just a "follow that guy" kind of thingee?

Not being involved in organizing this years event, I can only comment on past years.
Early on...it was a paper map with turn directions, follow the leader type of thing.
Then some people asked for GPS route files...I would work with Denny on the routes and someone else with a GPS volunteered to make that available. When it was smaller, I would try to match up people with groups.
Lately, the numbers have been large enough that trying to place people in groups is near impossible...so people are encouraged to socialize, get together with people and ride the route as individual groups.
The roads are great around the area, the trick is to have a local give advice as to this year's road construction. I have no idea if someone is putting together a route...but I suspect there will be a gps route. If yer smart, you ride it. If not, you head south to some Hillbilly hotdog place.
As I'm not involved, I'm sure Wayne will be along sometime to talk about all that stuff.

As far as I know the group rides were always Saturday and Sunday, not Friday and Saturday, but to each his own.At least we don't have to pass the US Customs trolls to get to SE Ohio!

I have GPS routes from previous years.

Can the routes from the previous year(s) be located and re-used?
