        I like the list of all rallies I just think we should give them the names they had at the time.

          Ralph, Marty, Phil... Only one in Picton? and it was in 2004? and this was called Crusin The County, not the Hamjam Rally? and it was XS East (not North)?

          Four in 2000 ?...Wellsboro, WV, Cape Breton and New Hampshire?

          I'm using the collective info from all you guys, plus old threads.

          This is only for East and North Ralph. The last one I included just because it was the only other 'rally' that I've done.

          (Phil..."I like the list of all rallies I just think we should give them the names they had at the time.")
          I think I'm doing that Phil, or trying to !!

          Geez, ya think I might have some time on my hands?

              2015 - No one felt inclined after loosing Ken the year before
              2016 - No official rally


              Dean I have taken the liberty of removing the North Carolina rallies as they belong in the South East not North East.

              I moved Picton into XS East as it was that year but in June or July.
              Although I went to the dinner for Bancroft organised by Mack very few attendees due to poor weather forecast and other circumstances. I think perhaps no Tshirt was produced.

              After 2005 Bainbridge ? Un-Rally the group decided that XS East would be held on Memorial Week end in May and the venue would continue to change from year to year. As we can see from the list we have never gone back to anywhere although we always try to conduct our selves as though we will be invited back So far we have managed to visit a good mix of states in "our" region.

                2004 Picton - I have photos dated July 3 thru July 5.

                2004 Cairo - I have photos dated 5/28 thru 5/30, so without looking it up probably the US Memorial Day weekend. . The group photo shows no T-shirts. MIke Cummings organized that one. Recall the "Heathers?"

                        I've updated this list of XSEast locations since inception. I've attended all but one. It has been interesting to see the turnover in members as they've migrated to newer though perhaps not better bikes. I find current and former XSseives to be a great group to ride with and look forward to it each year. I guess that's why we keep coming back.

                        Enjoy . . .

                          I’ve migrated, but not to a newer bike. I relocated to Mississippi where my XS1100SG is still in regular service. It has over 100,000 miles on it.
