Hey, Bruce,
If you guys wind up in the tri-state area of Stroudsburg, PA ( or Milford or Port Jervis) on Thursday of that week, we can ride to Deposit together. I've planned to get to the motel on Thurs afternoon 6/31.Comment

Hi Bruce
I'm trying to get to at least part of the July 4 weekend. It will be my first rally! I'm wondering if you have any kind of schedule put together that would help me know when best to get there and where and when to meet. It might wind up that I can't get there until either Sat night or Sunday morning. Never having been to one of these I don't know what to expect, especially if I have to miss Saturday. Thanks for any info!

Well OK not really!
I don't think the ride routes are not yet set in stone, so right now we don't have a schedule other than sleep, eat, ride, repeat as needed. I am going down a week early to help Bruce set up the routes.
But usually at these events, we get up and eat b'fast and start riding about 9am done about 5pm and then party all night (I wish I still could). Usually there are a few stragglers on Sat Morn and they usually get together for a ride of thier own. We will know more as the time draws near.
Let Bruce or me know your schedule and we can wait a while or meet up someplace.
Should be a blast....will have to go a ways to beat this weekend in WV, but we always try. See Ya there!!Gary Granger

Hi Dean,
What part of NY are you in ? What to expect at an XSive Rally ??
First of all, XSive Rallies are XSively addictive !!
Secondly, there's alot of XSively great people !! Most of the people seem to have an awful lot in common, other than just their bikes !
Lastly, the riding and extra cirrucula activities are always an unforgettable time !!
As for the "schedule", it's always subject to change, depending on what the majority wants to do, and there's also a possibility of breaking into smaller groups to do several different things. I've noticed that most of the XSive riders have a tendency to get a little "XSive" !!!!
We're planning on meeting at the Susquehanna Motel ( off exit 8 of Interstate 88 ) in the mornings and taking things from there. Gary and I will be spending the week before the rally checking out roads.
We'd be more than glad to have you attend and are looking forward to meeting you.
XSively,

Bruce,
Any chance of getting directions to the Motel once we arrive in Bainbridge?Comment

Hey Russ,
Which motel did you reserve a room in ?
If you're staying at the Susquehanna Motel, you'll see the motel @ the light ( turn right after getting off the highway) as you get off the interstate. If you're staying @ the Super 8, you'll get off @ exit 9 (Sidney exit) off I-88 and follow the signs, (bear right getting off the highway then, turn left at the light, and it'll be behind Burger King)
Hope that helps !!!
