    Someone want to volunteer to carry the banner? I'm two-up and a bit crowded, but I could manage if no one else can help.

    Thanks Ray.
    Calling Brent Come in Brent. In my experience: Fo XSEast it has been Brent who arrives with the Banner in a large mailing tube strapped to the seat of his RED Harley. Anything else will be a break from tradition

      All the fence sitters and otherwise undecided people need to sort them selves out for XSEast. If you have not been following this thread go back and see the REVISED location details. We are going to Bridgeport WV.

        Here is my (maybe) game plan. Leave home thursday morning, wander and stopping maybe in PA. Friday wander some more to Bridgeport WV.
        Monday morning may slab home. Or wander back maybe into Ohio stopping for the night somewhere and home by Tuesday.

        It's good when you don't have to rush home for work in the morning

          Send the banner general delivery to where your having the rally and pick it up at the post office when you get there.

            Banner arrangements have been made.

            Still working on revising the routes, changes were necessary due to the relocation of the lodgings. Fortunately and unfortunately work intrudes into my leisure time (something I am happy to say after being unemployed for the past 5 years. )

            If you are coming and have not reserved a room it is getting late!


            Small crowd this year?

                  It’s almost time to get packed for the rally. I am looking forward to some more WV riding and hope to see a large turn out of XS11 riders.

                        So then, I guess that means we will have to come and visit you there! I know for sure that Pam and I will be passing through next summer on our way to the west coast.

                              One more check-in request - please add your name if you are coming. I am trying to find a decent supper place for Saturday, looks like we will end up in a Denny's or Eat n Park kind of place. I need a count for reservations for lunch both days and dinner somewhere Saturday night.

                              Still only 11 rooms. Hey Scout you coming up?

                                Routes are just about done. It has been tough to steal some time to get this pulled together this year. And I am a bit surprised about the count, only 11 rooms?

                                We will be having lunch at Quinets Court again, on Saturday, in New Martinsville, WV. Lunch Sunday will be at the Western Steer Family Steak House in Elkins. Some of you might remember that place, we rode past it during our rally in Elkins and there were 50 Goldwings in the parking lot.
