    I was looking forward to meeting you and point you in the direction of your own f*****g way.

        Hey, Brent. It looks like we may be dragging another with us from out west here. (Harry, from Kansas City.) So he was hoping there'd still be a spot for an air mattress in that big ol' tent.

          Should be enough room. 11x20 "sleeps 10" should hold 5 or 6 big guys.
          With Harry, we should have enough folks to set up tent. Glad to have him join us. Tent camping there is cheap enough $20 for two in tent $5 each addditional person.

          Looking forward to it.
          It is a great big beautiful world out there

              9 more days!

              It looks like I have to be in Germany until the 27th.

              If anything should go wrong, Robin (my wife) will be bringing your tee shirts on time. Jeff and Brent can make this happen perfectly if I'm late.

                Man, I'm ready to get gone.

                I've been monitoring the weather. The weather guessers are predicting 40% rain there on Friday. But that also means a 60% chance it won't.

                  The weather guessers can't even get it right for tomorrow, much less 10 days out. We're also in the mountains, and that messes with the weather. I was up there a couple weeks ago and it was nice on one side and pouring rain on the other.

                  I admit that I am a glass is half empty kind of guy. I am also a strong believer in Murphy's Law. I have good rain gear, and I'll have it with me. I just bought Robin a new rainsuit. Make sure you have a dry tent. If we're ready for wet weather, it won't happen. If it is raining, I'm riding anyway.

                    Ha ha, just sayin' Marty. I have absolutely no problem sitting drinking beer while it rains.

                    Ask anybody.

                    I'm just ready to GO.

                        This is my daughter on Sunday, Sept 9 hamming it up for the camera. "Call me!"

                        For those of you who have never been there, you will be photographed several times on The Dragon. You may buy a lot of pictures of yourself in action, especially if your pockets are deep.

                                I am really looking forward to this trip as well. Mounting a new rear tire tomorrow and going to clean and tune the carbs.

                                I have absolutely no problem sitting drinking beer while it rains.
                                Greg, it doesn't have to be raining for you to drink a beer or 20
