    This is shaping up for a big turnout! We might need a wide angle lens for a group picture!

      I have approval in principal for the time off. So BNE can heave a sigh of relief
      Looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting the guys from the West.

                  Well, yeah there was that. She was the rowdy one though. We were innocent victims.

                    Hi, I am new to the site. I plan to attend the rally and looking forward to meeting the group. The Iron Horse is a nice place and all the surrounding roads are great rides. I plan to stay in the bunk house.

                        Hi Earl,

                        We've had very few folks come to this only once. I look forward to seeing you at the Iron Horse.

                            Looks like I will be in the bunkhouse, made reservation for Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. I hope you guys will let my ride with you if I am on a Yamaha Venture. I just sold my son-in-law my best xs11. It is a 1980 with 19,500 miles on it, but it has had a hard life. It set up for years????? I hope we can get it road ready by rally time and he can come to the rally too.
