    Save the Date: 2026 Brown County Indiana Rally - June 11-14, 2026

    Believe it or not, I've already had inquiries, so if you are also one of those folks who has to plan WAY WAY WAAAAYYY ahead, here's the vital info you will need.

    The 2026 edition of the Brown County, Indiana GS Rally will be:

    Thursday June 11, 2026

    through

    Sunday June 14, 2026

    Same place, the palatial Rosemount in bucolic Bedford, Indiana.

    Please do NOT pester the Rosemount or the manager Jay -- I'll put together the rooming list when the time grows nigh.

    This is the weekend BEFORE Father's Day.
    1983 GS850G, Cosmos Blue.
    2005 KLR685, Aztec Pink - Turd II.3, the ReReReTurdening
    2015 Yamaha FJ-09, Magma Red Power Corrupts...
    Eat more venison.

    Please provide details. The GSR Hive Mind is nearly omniscient, but not yet clairvoyant.

        I've got it down on the calendar, but now with a baby in the mix any weekends away from the family are gonna be tenuous for a bit. But I feel predisposed to go, as I am back in the Suzuki fold these days.

          Did you pull the plug? YouTube has been trying to show me all kinds of retirement planning stuff. I think this might be the first time I've ever had an ambition.

          Obviously, I'm in for the rally....

              Count me in, of course. Mary will likely join, either on the bike or in a Camaro.

                  No, still "plugged in".

                  Not sure how much longer, but it won't be much longer.

                        To quote my old Buddy Jeff when asked if there was ever any trouble at our rallys "We are about as intimidating as a middle school marching band".

                        Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                            My brother Jim from Colorado is traveling east to Ohio to visit family and do some riding.
                            He's been hearing me tell him about the rally for years. He's excited about coming.

                            (Don't worry, you don't have to be as nice to him!) Haha
