Ha ha ha......I won't have room to pack one. Maybe someone will loan me one when I get there.
It was 42 degrees when I left Wisconsin Sunday AM, I think NC will be fine.

dont forget to be prepared for quickly changing weather conditions in the mtns. Riding at higher elevations at this time of year can be surprisngly cold...so what ever it may be at the I-H is not necessarily what you will encounter in the mtns...2 yrs ago the a.m. I left to go home it was 33 degrees. After 30 mins of riding I had to stop in Waynesville for 20 mins to warm up...
Also, it's going to rain. It's guaranteed if you aren't prepared. Whatever, the weatherman says is incorrect at best. The mountains make their own weather. Last year's forecast was for rain all day and we ended up getting very little. I remember one brief freezing cold shower toward the end of our ride.

Yes, I remember that. Only thing was there wasn't time to get rain gear on and it was too muggy to just keep it on.

Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.
You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!

32 want shirts! Wow, how many of them are actually coming to the rally?
I hope all of them!
We had about half that at XS East, and it was FUN! (my first one, so I have nothing to compare it too. )
I'm getting really excited!

There are several folks coming to this rally who care nothing about collecting shirts. We have quite a few more shirt orders than last year, and I believe we had 36 people sign in at the Iron Horse on Friday night last year.
