XSEast 2011

[newc4]

2000 I hosted XSEast at Blackwater Falls WV. Only 6 showed, so I'm not sure it was official but with two motorcycle racers I learned to corner the XS on wet pavement.

I was just down around Goshen VA, near intersection of I-64/81, and thinking these are some fine roads.

I wouldn't mind going back to Wellsboro since I missed that one.

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

I thinhk the shirt said "Unexpected rally" XSEast ...somewhere...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.
