    2021 Brown County Indiana GS Thang - June 10-13 - SAVE THE DATE!

    I've noticed some chatter about the 2021 Brown County hooraw, and received a few inquisitive emails...

    As you've surmised (nothing gets past this crowd), I'm targeting the weekend before Father's Day, so the date for the 2021 Brown County GS Thang is hereby declared and defined as:

    Thursday, June 10, 2021

    through

    Sunday, June 13, 2021


    A whole lotta "ifs" between now an then, but... we're all tired of talking about all that stuff, so just, you know. Consider it said.
    1983 GS850G, Cosmos Blue.
    2005 KLR685, Aztec Pink - Turd II.3, the ReReReTurdening
    2015 Yamaha FJ-09, Magma Red Power Corrupts...

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

          We'll be there.

          Might be the smaller, lighter version of the Traveling Big Top (like last year), but we'll be there.

            I mention in the old thread that I *probably* can't make this one (though I will be at Ozarks + KY Krawl, if either/or happens).

            However, Mags will be setup in Paducah, KY. I'm thinking she might like to ride the Triumph up and hang out with you lot.

            I'll talk to her more about it today. There's still the issue of pet care, etc.

              Paducah is just 35 miles from me, what is she going to be up to there?

              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.

                We'll both be in Paducah but I'll be leading those demo rides Thurs ~ Sat.

                Paducah is central to all of the locations I'll be working in.

                She'll be keeping up with her day job (hopefully there's decent cell reception) and enjoying the secluded traveller's life.

                  I am mostly restricted to day trips currently, maybe we can work something out while you all are in the area.

                    I'd love to make it. The 10th is our anniversary so I'll have to see about it.

                      Just bring her along. She won't be the only female there.

                          YES!! As far as I know, I'm in. Lots of adversity this year; Facebook friends know the challenges. I'm hoping this can be a celebratory trip!
