    My attendance is doubtful this year. The wife is not doing so good so far this year.
    Nobody wants to ride with me anymore anyway, since I went "pirate", LOL.

      Bummer. Unfortunately, the BC Rally is not in the cards for me this year. I have an underling at work who is having to have surgery May 15. My wife went through something similar, so I know the drs. will tell her she'll be off work for 4-6 week. Even if she's back after 3 weeks, that only gives me a few days to ger her back up to speed and she won't be 100%. I've got to do my work and hers while she's out. I'll miss you all, and look forward to next year. I may think about doing Jedz's Vermont thing in the fall If I can work it out.

          I'd like to do that Jedz Green Mountain thing too.
          My problem is I'm usually out of vacation time by then.
          However, this year I might have some extra time in the bank.
          We'll see how it goes...
          My Motorcycles:
          22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
          22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
          82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
          81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
          79 1000e (all original)
          82 850g (all original)
          80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

            I keep dabbling in the "pirate" world (aka laid back cruiser with poor cornering clearance) myself. I've just really slowed my roll since starting a family, doubly so with another kiddo now. I'll more than likely be astride another Bandit 1200 this year but my pace will be leisurely. I barely have time to ride at all so I'm quite rusty anyways.

                    Oh man Carl, I'm so glad your recovering well! I hope we get stuck with you for a couple more decade at least after the rebuild!

                    Congratulation on retirement!!!

                    I wish I could go to this but the BMW MOA rally is in Vermont this year, I don't go but allot of my close friends do and I'm hosting them that weekend.

                    I am planning to be in KY, IA and IL by the end of the month again maybe I could do some couch surfing then? That also is not 100% becasue my wife will be entering month 8 of our second kid.

                    So I'll have a brand new human child in our home come August/September. I won't be hosting anything but will have the GMR ( Green Mountain Rally) on my radar. Rich82GS750TZ and storm 64 that's the event to gun for! It is camping but it is awesome!

                    Best,

                        I have visited those rooms and can tell you they are quite comfortable.

                        IF you happen to be needing a 'couch' in southwest oHIo, we don't have a couch worth sleeping on, we will offer the guest room with a king-size bed.
