Food and I heard a rumor about a beer fridge. Not likely to miss that




Actually I have to be in Buffalo the weekend prior then hit the road Monday back to Norfolk. Pack and rest on Tuesday and "maybe" hit the road for Ohio on Wednesday?? What day can we do setup at the swap meet??

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
I plan to have an extra bike ready by then. Offered it to sunnbobb but never heard back from him on that
Anybody up for flying into St Louis and riding on up?
My current plan has me leaving here on Wed and returning on Sunday. Less than I'd hoped for but (and I know this is just wrong) family comes first.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
Ain't nothing wrong with that at all. A Man has to have priorities. I expect about the time I am up in Buffalo doing the Family thing is about when Cyborg and old Fogey will be down playing on the Dragon. I am not happy about missing that at all but Family does hold rank in certain situations. 4th of July is my Mothers Birthday (yes she is the All American MomRoady wrote: Less than I'd hoped for but (and I know this is just wrong) family comes first.

My Mom is finally coming to visit from Phoenix and will be here all of July. Coincidentally, her birthday is July 8th. I just need to spend time with her while she's here.

Re: East Coast Mini Rally at Mid Ohio 9-11 July
Okay Dave, how did you balance the GL to get this shot with no center stand or side stand down and the tires fully inflated? Seems like you would need to be very fast on the shutter?diamonddave wrote:I plan on being there. Hoping for friday, if not saturday for sure.

It's really not that hard to balance a GL, Fred.
