Wow, that's a hop. Christine is starting her new job today and I only had to drop her at the SF Train.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
not easily for me, but I am sure she would enjoy seeing friends. And yes, Steve, I thought of your "commutor marriage. There was a really old movie with Alex Guinnes where he played a sea capain who sailed between two ports and had a wife in each port.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
For those who don't mind a nice ride to and from Mid-Ohio,the CWC members are staying at a '50's style no tell motel in Bucyrus,OH. 1-419-562-5014 Al Smith's place. It may take some calling to get through to make a reservation.I booked a room there w/2 double beds for $128.00 inc. tax. Don't know if it has gone up at all,if so,it's not much. And that is for 3 nights!

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
I have trailered my bikes to the motel in the past couple of years,since I usually bring 2 with me...Ride one on Fri.,the other one on Sat. This year,the CWC wants to have a full representation of the 1000 series of bikes. One of each year,so I may ride the Zonker,and have someone trailer my Yellow '76 survivor down to the track.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
I will certainly will plan to proudly represent the 1977 GL1000. This bike was mechanically restored by Inspector and now for my part of the teamwork I have it repainted in a rather non-traditional way. But since I have a most excellent 1977 seat and she runs so fine, I have no desire to put her on a trailer. I must say I am amazed Alwing that there is only one 1977 in your mighty fine fleet, but I bet it too is a mighty fine example of the year.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
Sounds like a great deadline to have my wing project running. 240 miles from my house, Hmmm. If I can get my wing up and roadworthy I'll plan a couple nights. If I haven't yet, I can cruise that before lunch on my Strom
. You can count me in for at least an afternoon!
