This is a thought. I can't commit just yet. Trailering. WTH is that?

 

I think we need a bump here. I have ridden with a few of the people already listed as going and can say. they are all heathens....i mean good people to ride with. I am about to convince my wife of the merits of me going, or suffer the wrath of me just saying I am going. Not sure which one will prevail.

 

Like R3, it is VFR based but occassional trash is allowed to participate according to OP

 

Damn. Too bad .... Lisa and I have all 6 of our kids that week or we'd be there for sure.

We were planning on going to the Black Hills this year regardless.

 

W need a bump

 

Are you going Randy?

 

I am seriously considering it. It is at the point of deciding if the trip is worth the money being spent while I have other goals presently. The wife isn't too impressed with it, saying,"I thought we were going camping?" Hell. We are both retired and I can go camping any time and will do some of that too. But I also have my eyes on a new fifth wheel which I will not go into debt for.

Are you travelling solo? Are you riding with the group from here? I see some of the riders from this area are riding with their significant others. They ae taking about 4 or 5 days to get there. I could make it in two hard days but if I go, I may as well ride along with them. Jeff is a regular riding partner.

I wished I could convince my wife to join me but she has made it perfectly clear, she is not riding with me. Her loss.

 

I am riding with the group from here. I have booked lodging and am ready to go. I am not sure of the route I am taking back yet but I might do a bit of wandering. I would like to make a trip to the Going to the Sun road then maybe up to Alberta and the Icefields Parkway. After that I don't really have any preferences.
Tomorrow morning I am heading down to get my seat made. I have an appointment on Tuesday morning. So with a new RR and wiring, new suspension from DMr and a new seat I will be ready for the ride this summer.

 

I am just sitting down now with the calendar to see how it will work out. I should be able to get a better idea on when the next eye surgery will be and may be able to find some fudge dates for that. I will go see the docs office on Tuesday and get a better idea. Viennese has resigned herself to the fact I really want to go. After all, I missed two of my bi-annual trips to Atascadero. You will meet some really good people at this AM. There is a group of use from the Lower Mainland heading out as a group. I have ridden with several of them and they are great people....unlike me. But I will promise to behave myself seeing as it is a VFRD run event.

I don't think I will ride back with the group though. I am not as pressed for time as they are, saving potential surgery date. I would like to get to Pike's Peek. The rest of my trip is up in the air.

Once again, soon as I get back, I hope to pack up the fifth wheel and take Baxter and his mom out camping. This time I think it is going to be the South Okanogan Valley. If it has dried out. They are all under water right now.

 

OK. I am in. have to register over at the VFRD site when I get time today. Leaving here on July 6th and riding with a group from the west coast to get there at least. Haven't yet decided on what is happening on my return trip.

UCKTUM- BOOGIE-WOOGIECHICKEN!

 

I'm in. Just have to register at VFRD later today. Riding with the group from the LMD leaving here on the 6th July. Haven't yet decided what I am doing on my return but I do have flexibility that way.

Hellya....we shall ride!

 

Damn ... maybe I can still make this work yet.

 

Keep me in the loop on your plans for the ride home.

I double checked and I've got my kids the week of this event, so it's a no go for me to head to Custer then. HOWEVER, if you're heading up this way, I'm free the week after. We could ride #1 in MN to Duluth and come up through Ft. Frances to spend a night at the family cabin on LotW and do little riding there before you head back West.
