                  Ha! Future XSeast rallies? Yes Future Arrogant Bastards? Hell No! What was I thinking?...I was hungover til we left the Johnstown museum...
                  Thanks for those years...I thought there was also a rally in VA?

                          Hi BNE,
                          The Unexpected Rally was in Elkins WV on the Memorial Day week end
                          2005 as the Bainbridge event was XSEast that year but was sheduled in July (June?) since then XS East is Memorial week end in NE USA as people do not trust the weather in Canada at that time of year.

                              "Officially" the XS East annual rally occurs on the USA's Memorial Day weekend. I say "officially" because what here is really "official?"

                              USA Memorial Day Weekend XS East rallies (someone chime in and supply missing info?):

                              Thousand Islands / Alexandria Bay, NY;
                              Cruso, NC,
                              and others before 2003.

                              2003 - Grand Canyon of PA, Wellsboro
                              2004 - Cairo, WV
                              2005 - The Unrally, Elkins, WV
                              2006 - Almost Heaven at the world famous Cow Shed Motel, Pineville, WV
                              2007 - "Canada and US invade Mexico" rumble near Mexico, NY
                              2008 - To the Poconos... and Beyond, Stroudsburg, NY
                              2009 - Mis-Placed in the Green Mountains, Brattleboro, VT
                              2010 - Ride to Remember, Somerset, PA

                              In addition, there have been some other more organized weekend rallies:

                              2005 - Bainbridge, NY 4th of July weekend

                              and there have been several XS North (Canadian) rallies also (not being discussed in this thread... yet):
                              New Brunswick
                              Picton,
                              Madawaska Valley
                              Marty in NW PA
                              Gone - 1978E - one of the first XS11 made
                              Gone - 2007A FJR - the only year of Dark Red Metallic
                              This IS my happy face.
