Glen (dorkburger) and I have a tentative plan to attend this year, and we’re very excited about it.
I didn’t want to reveal this tentative plan until I talked to my Sister-in-law about it. As she was leaving after thanksgiving dinner (my famous deep-fried turkey), I asked her about this van she has.
I knew her late husband (passed a year ago, June) had some type of vehicle that he regularly used to haul motorcycles. I didn’t know any specifics about it. But she told me tonight it’s a 2018 Dodge Promaster high roof van. Basically, this: https://www.kbb.com/ram/promaster-ca...h-roof-van-3d/
Cargo compartment is separated by a solid divider from the driving compartment. Very secure. She is sure that he hauled at least 3 motorcycles at a time with it. Has front wheel chocks and ramps. The best part: she said I could use it whenever I wanted.
There will be logistics to work out. He may ride from NJ to my place in central PA, we load up here, share the 10 hour driving time to southern Indiana. The stars are starting to align.
With recent events at home and depending on the stability of certain family members (which I just wrote exhaustingly about earlier) we should be able to work everything out. Fingers crossed.
I’ll have to talk to Glen about the hotel, see if he wants to share a room, if that’s possible.
Can’t wait.

One of these years I won't have a schedule conflict with this...

2022 Brown County Indiana GS Thang, 6/9-6/12, 2022 - SAVE THE DATE!
Greetings, gentlecreatures of supreme velocity and exquisite taste!
I've had a few queries, so I'll share the dates chosen for the next Brown County Indiana hooraw this June.
Thursday, June 9, 2022
through
Sunday, June 12, 2022
As is tradition (or what passes for tradition), this is the weekend preceding Father's Day.
Obviously, uh, external factors may intervene. But June 9-12, 2022 is what we'll plan and hope for.
Please do not call or pester the Rosemount -- I'll be managing the rooming list as usual, and I'll be getting in touch with past attendees a few months ahead of time. If you're new-ish, and/or coming from some far land, mention that here or get in touch with me.
One twist this year is that a massive multi-year construction project is underway nearby in Mitchell, so hundreds of workers are lodging in hotel rooms in Bedford and elsewhere. (The Rosemount is full, but Jay is clearing the decks for us.) If you prefer other lodgings, start looking and reserving early.
