So is this a happening this year?
There seems to be a severe lack of chatter here.
OK, I'll have my cooties shots, at least one bike, maybe two.
I need to confront my wife, put my foot down, and ask politely if I can go.
SO..... Windy, your place or the motel? Date? Attendees?
Hello?? Anybody here?

Richard, we are discussing how and when to go. If you want to go early, and stop here again, you are more than welcome. Gumby and I are thinking about taking the Parkway from here to Blowing rock if that would interest you.

Have a basic plan and then let life fill in the blanks.

We will let you stop and take pictures! You promise? Every time I ride with any of you y'all just keep going until I hit reserve. I plan to get to Windy's on Wednesday, and do a thorough check of all bolts before each ride.

When my kids grew up and got married I thought I'd have a lot more money but now I have seven grandkids and am broker than I've ever been.
