Thanks for that drink on the house but I'll buy a couple of rounds.
I've got this new HD Visa I need to get broken in.
For motorcycle related topic see the below which I posted
on a local mailing list.
Here's a link for a weekend dinner ride we will be doing.
http://www.orgsites.com/mo/mach/
You might check to see if any of your group would care to go
along. From here it will be KSA at the Dixie Cafe parking lot
in Hearne,TX at the intersection of Hiway 6 and Hiway 79/190 on
Friday morning 07:30am. We should arrive at the motel in
Vicksburg around 2:30 to 3:00pm as it's only 400 miles from
Hearne. Our route will be Hiway 79 from Hearne to Henderson,
Hiway 43 from Henderson to I-20 and I-20 to Vicksburg. There
will only be three riders leaving from here so it is not really
a large group ride, and there's an open backseat. I realize
from monitoring your mailing list that most of your members
seem to mostly ride locally but if anyone is interested they
would be more than welcome. We're considering a loop through
upper Michigan on the way home but that can change if we need
to escort riders back to Hearne. Anyone interested can contact
me for more information.
Thanks
Ride Safe

So if there are any NetScum in the Vicksburg area I will be
at the host motel both Fr & Sa nites, make your self
known. Or drop me a note and I'll give you my cell
number.
Is that what you had in mind George, and have another on me.

Yeppers, it is. You're drinking on the house tonight.
Say Hi to Les for me, ride safe.

Prezactly what I had in mind, sounds like a good time. Will they shun you
when you show up on the gnu bike, or are you taking the Wing?
Let us know how it went when you get back.
Ride safe.

It's been a blast but not a "wild party" type blast,
just lots of visiting with old friends in the years
I've attended. Naturally I'm riding the gnu bike
just to tweak some of the Wing riders a bit.
YMMV
