      I'll be here this year, but not sure about next year yet- hope to meet you then.

      Always nice to see another Triple on the road- there aren't many of us left.

      Don't forget, there is another rally in September in Stecoah NC. You can find it in another thread in this site. It's called VYR for Vintage Yamaha Rally. It started with a group of XS11's and expanded.

            Hey, have fun and enjoy getting together and of course, the Riding. Post a few pictures along the journey.
            I did have the Pacifico E out yesterday but family arriving here this weekend so staying home.
            After this it is just 4 months waiting for the Sept Rally in Stecoah NC that Mike mentioned.
            So another ride opportunity for those that can make it the western NC mountains.

            Take Care, Jeff

              I'll definitely consider coming down to the YVR if vacation time allows it! I was looking at that one and saw that the XS1100s were very well represented, makes sense to hear that it started with XS1100 owners meeting up.

Can you inagine 20 miles at a time with no cops, lights, traffic,,,that is XS EAST,,,,,,Special thanks for Darrell setting and heading this up, great guy, unreal rider,,,big kudos to the rest of the XS East gang for lots of memories, Keith and his easy spirited riding and manner, Mike for his passion for these bikes, gorgeous and like new, and smooth riding style, Earl for having a beater xs1100 like mine that still cranks, and his unbelievable riding with a near flat, front tire, I still cannot believe the speeds he pulls in corners on that tire and survived, Pete and Vicki showing us how two up can ride with the best, very inspiring, and coming all the way from Connecticut, hope I got everybody,,,, sounds like same area next year,.....just got back, nice weather helps.....best to all, Mike in Pa, and Ca.
