XSEast 2021

[Jerry]

I have put together the basic web page for the 2021 rally. Link is: https://www.appleattic.net/East2021/index.html if the link (in red) to the left does not work. Note: A couple months ago I upgraded my site from an unsecured site to a secured site. (https:// instead of http://) If you have the old http:// address in your files or bookmarked it may not work properly so please update.

Although I moved to NE Iowa and am closer to the east coast, I can't make this year's rally as I had hoped. I will be getting radiation treatments for prostate cancer beginning in late April and extending into May.

As in previous years, if folks send me photos of the rally I will build a photo gallery and post it to my web pages.

Web page will be updated as more information comes forth.

jab #1 received today, 2nd stick in the arm May 6th..... The road that leads away from the house is getting longer soon...... Bax sighting in Ohio hopefully goes as originally planned. Might even have the XS done in time.

got my second dose of Pfizer last Wednesday. Another week and supposedly will be fully protected. I still try to avoid large crowds and I still try to do my part to defeat this modern plague. Supposedly the second dose is the one that can cause a reaction based on antibodies present from the first jab. Fortunately I did not have any reaction. Was actually concerned about whether the shots were working at all. Hopefully this thing will begin to die down and we can all get back to our normal selves.

Wife and I became fully Pfizerized yesterday.

I was surprised I am having a mild fever (100 degrees), lightheadedness, and slight headaches today.

Wife has no symptoms. That's backwards at our house....she's usually higher maintenance and I'm usually no maintenance.

Hey Mike that’s what we all say about our spouses and maintanence.

Maps look great! Thanks Marty
Vicky and I are all shot up as of 3 weeks ago, a little ache, mild flue like symptoms, not worth the Tylenol.

Picked up a new trailer in Georgia last week, ready load up to go to Ohio NOW!
Oop's, almost ready. I have to put a tire on the rear, install a Garmin, bluetooth speaker, Spring safety check etc

[MartyA]

Hey Pete, which Garmin?

[pete_s]

Hi Marty: Going old school with a Zumo 595lm, trying to find handlebar space or secure to the Windjammer? The Zumo XT was even bigger!

Not a whole lot of chatter here.

Two weeks to go. T shirts are in work. I’ve been viewing the west route, will have to view the east route. Gary will have GPS so I don’t have to memorize every turn.

I’ll follow up on the hotel reservations and see about making lunch reservations this week. Doesn’t look to have much in the way of evening dining.

Go the bike checked over and fitted with new tires. Battery good.

Hope to see you all there barring any rocks in the road.
