      • Thanks for the comments on the web page. I've done a bit of upgrading this morning; added the T-shirt design to the top of the page and added a link to the latest list of attendees. I also put a link on my home page, address is in my sig line as My home page.

        If anyone has any suggestions on additions please let me know.

          One thing I have seen on similar web pages is a link as you have to list who is attending...and a link to the discussion thread...really though this is pretty damn good for Q&D.

            Actually, there is a link to this thread on the web page. Look at the entry:

            Follow the 2012 Rally thread on XS11.com.

            If you click on the word "thread" (it is underlined as a link) it will take you to this thread as a guest.

            Thanks for the kind words!

            • OK Jerry, If that is the Q&D version, the all out version would really make me feel useless at web design!!! Awesome work!
              Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

              When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

                Jeff, I'd like to get together and meet sometime.
                I work 4 twelves underground, off on Fri thru Sun, back to work on Monday evening shift in Greenbrier Co.
                My first Rally with these guys was in in '04. Great bunch of guys and some A-1 [to say the least] riders. 'Just can't say enough good things about this group of experienced riders, both male and female riders.
                I started out on an '80 XS1100-G with this group, and, like many others, moved on to other bikes.
                You can give me a PM for a meeting time/place, or contact me at xsivebiker@yahoo.com or my number is in the "book".
                'Ever been to the Cold Spot off old 61? between Oak Hill and Mt. Hope?
                Possible Meeting place.
                My brother-in-law, Steve , will be riding to the Rally on his 'Wing also.
                Marty -- --- I'm still trying to get Keith, on his 'Wing, to attend.----
                My son came in from N.C. tonight, My daughter should be in from Va. [law school] on Friday, sooo--- maybe Sunday, weather permitting for a meeting at the earliest before the Rally?
                If not then, there's always other week-ends before the Rally.
                As mentioned, give me a PM on this web site, or my email or a call on the hard wire and before Rally time we can discusss times and routes.

                The rallys are a BLAST; it's always GREAT to put faces to the names you've been conversing with!
                The year before last , I rode to Pa. to do a 186 mile group ride and had to ride back home the same day, 525 miles total---- I'd do it again in a heart beat!

                  • Be sure to book a room as soon as you know you are attending, or post up you are looking to share a room. I think the rooms have 2 beds.

                              Thanks for the vote of confidence Phil! Hopefully months of meticulous planning will ensure a successful rally, and if so, you're welcome! If it all turns to sh*t, please see Marty. Don't worry, that is his happy face.

                              • Well I must say Mark...that my expectations are running high on this being a great rally...just by virtue of the SE oHIo terrain. Howeever, I knew if you and Marty were involved it would be a great rally...seems to me that Marty is always behind the scenes of various plannings of XSEast events and if we here at CH11 could cast votes for a member of the year award...my vote would go to him. He does alot more than he gets credit for but accolades to you Mark as well for stepping up and being the host...Anticpating this...just a few more weeks...
