David, Grand Paul ( thank you again) taught me how to âplotâ a route on Google maps but I accidentally deleted Windyâs written directions he sent me a couple months back.
Heâs been busy and I donât want to bother him about it.
SoâŚâŚat this point I donât have a route map.
Iâm just gona jump into the middle of the pack and try my best to keep up. If that doesnât work Iâll bail and make my own way back.
richrd says itâs going to rainâŚâŚ..the weather has been spotty the past couple of months. Canât really tell when or where a cell will pop up. But so far around my place ( Iâm about 80 miles from Windyâs) the forecast has been wrong more than right.
See ya soonâŚâŚ.G

May I suggest that everyone who is trailering in bring some fire wood, so we don't have to tear down any more of windy's fences.

Lots of states don't let you bring in firewood from other states. Not sure if it's to keep unwanted wood living critters out or local loggers employed but Mass and Connecticut both have big signs as you cross the border on I91 south.

Gordon Motorcycles are dangerous enough Gordon. Bring chainsaws into the mix and the next thing you know there will be alcohol and guns too......

I say chaps I was wondering if all y'all wouldn't mind little old me showing up in 2023...? Can't leave our Kev all on his own, not with them Alligators about....  Now dude's, ifn I got this right y'all now camp at Windy's, well we can't bring our camping gear in that Kerosene Pigeon, so is there an alternative that we could use. We'll sort things like bike loan nearer the time, but any offers would surely be rewarded with Ale. Especially for bikes that can make it to Maggie Valley and back, sure do have a hankering for a Wheels Through time museum visit again....  Tell Wade the Red Pants are coming....

Well i would be more than honored to break bread with you lot but we will not have any if that queen - king stuff on this side of the pond as we done sorted that out. As for camping there are more options round the corner so you can be well taken care of.

Gee thanks Windy dude, I'll await your instructions, might be best to give me a shout over in the Rod and Tappet, I keep forgetting there's a bunch of stuff outside...
