    • Hey guys,
      Bohn is planning to come, and twisting my arm to attend.
      So...if I bust my butt and save my pennies, I might make this one too.

      Greg, might ride out with ya, if you FOR SURE plan to go...this time?

      Never been out there before, looks like a lotta fun!

      Scott, hate to hear you probably won't make it. Enjoyed meeting you and getting to ride with ya in Colorado!

      Hope. Columbo gets a new heart soon.

            • Thanks, Phil!
              Absolutely! After all, I may not own one anymore, but I'll always be an XSive at heart! If I ever do get to move from this apartment one day, and get a house WITH A GARAGE... I'll probably one day own another one. I really miss mine...but at the moment, one's all I got room for and can afford.

              It would be nice to finally get to meet you in person, as well... After chatting here for almost 6 years! Lol

              Just talked to Bohn, his rooms been booked since April, and he plans on trailering the LT, and Linda will be going with him this year.
              He said he's got relatives in that area they'll also be visiting, so sounds like I need to hustle up and get a plan going if I'm gonna make it!

              Scott, have you already called and cancelled your room?
              Let me know if it's still available, and maybe we can work something out, ok?

                      The more the merrier. Dunno about Tod & Harry. But they have time to decide.

                        We're doing our best on this end. The rides are going to be as fresh as we can make them. The roads look extremely good. I will try to get a good run on them again before the rally. We all know XSives prefer shooting the breeze at gas stations and motel parking lots, as was pointed out to me by MaximPhil at XS East. The Iron Horse provides us with a lot of good quality fellowship space. I think all may agree it's a lovely property.

                        We don't know how many folks are going to show, but we expect the usual suspects. Tee shirt requests have started off slowly and that should give us an idea who's coming. The resort is mostly booked, but there's no way to know who's booked for our rally. Every year since our move to the IH we grow a bit. Hopefully, 2014 will bring a record turnout that will be enjoyable for all.

                          More than welcome Bob. Not sure if Harry will be healed up enough to make the trip. He'll let us know I'm sure.

                          Tod has been out on a lot of the other rallies this year as have many of us. He may be taking a trip with Tam then someplace tropical where he can sip those fruity drinks and flirt with the cabana boy.

                          Ivan is tied up in college and Russ has been busy for a couple years now. He sold The Navy Bike to JW, that might be a clue.

                            Room is booked at the Iron Horse Lodge.

                            I am planning to attend.
                            I'll be in the Creekside room.

                            Thanks, Scott.

                              I'll just be staying in Brent's big tent again. I think it's bigger than those little rooms anyway.

                                The IH has little rooms and bigger rooms and two bedroom apartments. It's all a matter of how deep your wallet is. But, you knew that.

                                Maybe we should give Brent's tent site a name. How about Okie Estate?

                                I believe the IH charges $15 for a tent site and $5 for each additional person. Considering the full access to the facilities, it's a bargain. We have plenty of campgrounds around here that charge that much or nearly so, without providing a hot shower or access to a flushing toilet. If you have a dry tent with a comfy mat to sleep on, camping is a great way to go.
