Your Mission, Ladies & Gentlemen
Okay, I received word from Bruce (aka Desert1) today that he finally got his bike out for its first run of the year. He sounds REAL happy with it's performance, dare I say Excited. This is good! He has always been concern with the mechanical reliability of his bike. For good reason. Remember the Rally in the White Mountains of NH? Left Caribou ME in the morning but due to many delays because of breakdowns we arrived at the campsite at 2:30am the next day! I don't even want to talk about the rainy trip home.
I digress; your mission ladies and gentlemen (all you fans of Bruce) is to send Bruce many emails encouraging him, begging him or even bribing him with good rum; to come to the rally. He needs more than me pestering him to come along. And I need him to ride with me as well.
Come on, you know you need a couple more Canucks from the East at this rally! And we will both be on 1978's!!
Can't have enough of these '78s on the 30th anniversary of these Great Bikes.Mark Robertson,

This is going to be FUN! The Canadians are heading to Atlanta, the rally is in PA, and half of us don't even have an XS11.
What a crew!!!

Yeah Marty, it seems really funny when everybody attends an XS Rally and stands around an XS11 and points and says "Hey look a real XS11... Wow"Originally posted by MartyA
