I did that for Shelly as well. No regrets here either. Always good to have an additional chase vehicle available as well.

Odds are increasing that I will be there this year after all. I'm really looking forward to it.

Who's up for a "up early" Uly ride? Plot a route with lots of curves, and include a couple of 10 or so mile gravel / easy dirt sections? There is one along the Cherohola, and parsons branch road. I've done the whole Cherohola one, and always wanted to do parsons branch.

Absolutely. So long as they aren't running unbaffled straight pipes.

You've ridden with me before. You were, to paraphrase, pleasantly surprised at how pleasant riding with a Harley rider could be.

Always a pleasure to ride with you Ferris!

When I say "no straight pipes", that wasn't a veiled Harley slam. It was to say that a whole day of riding behind somebody with unbaffled straight pipes pointed at my head gets tedious... that's all. Nothing personal to anyone.

FMJ, That would be a hoot. It's been a few years since we tossed back brewskis in the parking lot of the Franklin Motel. ; )

Shaping up to be another one for the books.

Hey Jim, maybe we'll break up into to groups of muffled and non-muffled bikes. ; )

We'll be there Thursday afternoon. Leaving out early Friday morning for a visit but we'll be back by early afternoon. Cookout Friday evening at Sellers place. We'll leave about 6:30 - 7:00 from the motel for all who might be going.

Brian, I don't recall the Zuk being loud. Just wide! : )

I'll sign up for the "delicate ears" group. Skirts optional.

I will just have to assert my manliness in other ways, like peeing off an overlook on the Cherohola.

Oh, and anyone who thinks the loud group will be the slow group hasn't chased Jim, Ferris (who isn't loud, but looks like he could be), Mike B, and the other locals around those mountains...

They spent a LOT of time waiting for me to catch up... and were always gracious about it.

I'm just becomming a sissy in my old age...

My bet it that Mike B . . .would not be a good person to chase . . . .local knowledge is more powerful than the force.

Ian, we're pulling out early a.m. on Thursday. We would wait until you get from Elkhart to Hartford City.

Fireman Jim posted back in time that he would try to make it. When he decided he would indeed join us I thought it'd be a cool surprise for some who were attending if we kept it stealth. But, as fate would have it, several have emailed me to find out if he was really coming. In the spirit of George Washington I have to tell ya...

FIREMAN JIM is coming to the ride! So, if ya been on the edge, here's another reason to join us.

Ready to RIDE!

Reep,
Take care of what you need to. You'll be there in spirit and I'll hoist a few for you.

I'll be out of town until Thursday afternoon in CO, but am getting travel plans set up with a few others that are coming down. Heather's sister and her family are coming down to visit us Saturday, so she'll not be able to attend, and I'll need to do my normal post-Franklin early wakeup call to get back for the pool party... It's all good though.
