    Snoozed to long!!!!! Best Western all booked up. So......you folks will have the pleasure of myself and my beautiful wife at the Trade Winds. Its a good thing actually, for me anyway. This new house deal is drainging my wallet faster than a $100 XS11. I keep saving like this and I am going to ante up for the indoor plumbing.
    When a 10 isn't enough, get a 11. 80g Hardbagger

            EEEEWWWW, John!

            Webbcraft,

            I am planning on leaving at about 3pm on Friday, the 27th, from my house. I'm hoping Hippie Dave can get off work early, and meet us at my house.

            If not, you can certainly meet us at my house, and chill until Hippie Dave gets there, or we decide to leave and meet him in Jacksonville.

            How's that sound?

            Hey Todd, SWMBO and I will be there too, so that place is really gonna "rock!"

                Skippy, lemme consult my charts. How far are you from the intended target town? I could leave out on Friday at what Renee would consider a decent hour and just cruise to CS. Your only a couple hours from me. We could then collect everyone and motor on up (or over) to Jacksonville. I have all day to get there!!

                Our late arrival would allow the early arrivers to properly prepare for us.

                  great turn out

                  Unless I am wrong...... which usually is the case, there are 20 confirmed bikes and 26 confirmed bodies accompanying said bikes.

                  ZXDavid hasn't posted but did tell me unless he's dead, he'll be here. so that'd make 21 / 27.

                  This is gonna be nice. I can't wait to see everyone again and meet those I haven't as of yet.

                    141 miles

                    So, with gas and food stops, I'm guessing 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

                      Oh yeah, you have a "Special" I will confer with my tailgunner tonight. I am sure that anything that will let her sleep in a few more hours will be just fine. So, the loose plan, Renee and I cruise up to your place, gather people, bikes and thoughts and then calmly cruise on over to the meet. I hope Hippy Dave can make it. I have a new clutch!

                            I would have said something about a rimshot... but the way this post is heading... not REAL sure that's a good choice of words...

                            Does this mean he'll need more Kleenex?
                            and does he still need it if shooting blanks?

                            You know... it would have been SO much better for me to have remained naive on this one...
                            Better get a bigger can for those worms...
