    Who is going to Bob Jones Rally

    from Texas? Was trying to justify my going thru the pain of a 1100 mile trip. Want to see if I might find some riding partners.
    Also, is anyone bringing a trailer for parts or parts bikes from there?

    I'm flying up and riding back. Maybe you could meet up with some of the Okie boys along the way...

        I am leaving out of work tomorrow. So, if you are around Wichita at about 4:30, I'd be happy to make the last part of the trip with you.
        Ich habe dich nicht gefragt.

          I'm riding out as early as possible tomorrow John.

          I don't know who from Texas is going except Jeremy but I'll bet Russ has a pretty good idea.
          Get ahold of him.

          Did you finally get that gold plated driveway ornament back together?.......LOL....

              I'll be leaving around 1pm. Look for a slow maroon jalopy truck with a C-clamp holding the driver door shut. I swear I have a pretty truck, but this one has a 10 foot bed!

                Does it have a big sign on the chicken crates in the back that says "pull my hillbilly a$$ over" ?........LOL

                I think I've seen it.

                    Are you still going to go if you don't have a riding partner Big John? Maybe you can ride on the back of Greg's bike once you get to Tulsa, just don't rip off his sleeves like the last guy, he's running out of nice pearl snap shirts!

                              Hey Greg,

                              Did you finally get that gold plated driveway ornament back together?.......LOL....
                              Which time???
                              Had it totally tore down for complete winter overhaul.

                              Then Tore everything down from tranny back (swingarm mod).

                              Two weeks ago reshimmed the valves, added an auto CCT and did touchups.

                              UHHHH, yeah it's been together for the last two weeks solid. May be some kind of record for me. Better take pics fast.

                              Next teardown due pretty soon! Yeah, got to finish that big tank, fab that special handrail, do the final drive swap after powdercoating it, ...........
                              .................................................. ......................
