Oh, THANK YOU to everyone for the well wishes and encouragements!

The heart operation has not happened yet as it was supposed to have been. We have a pending health care workers strike and it is messing up the scheduling of operations. If I am not scheduled by tomorrow, it will not be until sometime in May. Summer will be messed up then.

In the meantime, I have cancelled my room at the motel and I let Ralph know by email that it is available as he had "Dibs" on it.

I am going to try and ride as much as I can until my operation so that the season will not be entirely lost.

Cheers,

A further hijack...Tom this past week I rode to Moonshine IL Pop 2...a million friends for the Moonshine Lunch Run...my experiences doing that have taught me some lessons. My bike as capable as it is ..is not comfortable after 400 miles...needs a real seat like a RDL. GPS I need ...also need a set of helibars and some brake work as well..so I'm looking at $1500 USD to get all these things...well maybe I could save a little on the GPS and get a re-cond. one...sorry folks...My reservation is still up at the motel but if anyone wants it PM me.

Hey BNE,
Don't sweat it that you can't make it. I understand, as I'm sure everyone does, that funds just don't go as far as they used to. Just take care of what you have to do and hopefully we can get together next year.

We're gonna' miss you Pal,
Wayne

As for preparing a bike to ride 1000 miles in 24 hrs, I would say if was mechanical fit it shoud easily run for 1000miles. If you are using the ST , that's what they are built for!

The only thing extra I had on my FJR was a GPS, when I did my first iron butt.

But I do understand the other reasons that you have decided not to head up into Ontario.


Sorry for the high-jack!

Phil my plans were based upon my brother finding employment and additional income from him...has not materialized as of yet...plus I need to prep for XSEast and then save my money for an Iron Butt SS1000 that i want to do next yr...but i have to save the $ to prep the bike and have the right equipment to ride 1000 miles in 24 hrs or less... I might even have to part with old Max... OFC if you win the lottery that would help...whom I'm not sure...LOL

[MaximPhil]

Folks..looks like I will have to back out of this event...price of fuel and the distance involved is more than I can afford at this time. Will leave the reservation up for a little while longer just in case...otherwise there will be a vacancy...sorry Wayne... et al...

Well I was planning to wander over that way. Thought maybe I should grab the last room before a fishing person latches on to it. Ya me!

Welcome Bruce,
