Bring the Burg Jerry. Some of us old timers might want to throw a leg over it. Just bring a picture of Hillary. We don't want her spoiling our weekend. Does your spouse ever get out of the house on two wheels?

What was interesting was the odometer on the bike I wa on had a mileage reading of 16666 while I was at the store!... |

I wonder how many of us have ridden our bikes to Hell and back.

A scant 400mi from home, that's do-able! Any Boston-area folks (Dozer?) want to ride in early Friday morning and ride back Sunday? And/or perhaps I can catch up with a caravan on the way?

I do absolutely plan on going, but it it up in the air where i'll be at the time.Right now i'm already in PA, but if I do end up being in Boston on the days leading up to it, I'd be happy to ride with you and whoever else may want to tag along.

Several of us (sounds like four at this time) are going from central shoreline Connecticut, probably a lot of super slab, and we often fly in, eat a fine Country Cupboard meal, drink all the beer, snore for 5 hrs, and fly out . . . I've been to several PA Rallys and missed 1/3 of the folks who went at different times, more's the pity. But I will sign the banner! (again) And listen to PA buffalo stories for hours after Uncle Phil goes to bed! EE

If I don't sell it by then I may bring my "spare" rack to the rally. I believe it is for a custom, not sure, but I bought it off of fleybay and it does not fit my CX500-A. I can send picks, it is in pristeen condition but no mounting hardware. Let me know if you are interested I will forward pics.

Hopefull, most of us can navigate through google maps. I centered directly on the house. To get a map view, click on the left 'map' tab. To get direction from your town, right click on the map image and choose "get directions to here". Then type your town into the directions slot in the top left.

780 miles for me if I stick to Highways and Slab which I would not. Over 800 if I take secondary roads. Not completely undoable but not really resonable for me to pull off. I would love to make it and split the ride into two 400 mile days. If I had some more vacation this year I could make a trip out of it. Maybe 09.

Jason, give me your boss's phone number. I'll tell him I am your psychiatrist and you really need to get away for a few days.

Well that might work for the boss at the normal day job. I doubt it would work at the second job since I am the boss there and am just getting it off the ground. Taking the time off before my partner and I even get the line profatible would not be a good thing.
