      Here it is!



      It even survived the accident! The bike, not so much.

              I just talked with the Iron Horse about any availability for Sept 23-24-25

              As of 10AM Aug 10th they have:
              1 efficiency unit, $125.00/night (this is the living room/kitchen area in one of the cabins up on the hill, it has its own private bathroom however the bed in there is a queen size sofa pullout, also has a twin size roll away)


              Both bunkhouses still have a few spots available
              So if you want to be right at the Iron Horse you can still call and get a Bunk House bed.


              FYI TENT CAMPERS: I asked I-H to confirm what they provided to Tent Campers. They said:

              For the campers, towels/washcloths are available to rent from the gift shop. Shampoo, conditioner, bath gel are complementary in the bath-houses.

              So if you are Tent Camping bring your own towel or if you don't want to lug a towel I-H has them but she didn't say how much.
              I will ask. Likely a nominal $ just so they don't disappear.


              Reminder: as we get closer to the Rally date we will also be providing updated info on our XSSE Facebook Page.

                I so want to go but I haven't been doing much riding since March. The disc that went out on me last year that I had surgery to correct herniated again back in March. It's not healed enough for a long ride like that. But everyone have a lot of fun.
                Owned by a pair of XS11's. An 80 Standard and a 79 Special.

                  Was thinking this 'was' the year. We were so much looking forward to showing you around up here vs. you getting us to Key West & back each year.
                  Sorry to hear your disk issue has returned. That's no good. We didn't know that.
                  Can see how sitting on an XS11 for 2,000 miles wouldn't be very good with a blown out back.

                  take care,

                    Rally Day

                    Since its the 15th Annual XSSE we have a few new things for this year.

                    After checking-in with the Iron Horse to get your meals & cabin/tent/bunkhouse squared away
                    - then - you sign-in at our XSSE table to get the shirt you ordered & to say HEY.
                    New - this year you will also receive two (2) things.

                    1) a Goodie Bag (with some neat stuff)
                    2) a Raffle Ticket (for some really awesome stuff)


                    Just saying, you probably DON'T want to misplace or loose your Raffle Ticket. A need to be present to win sort of thing
                    We will draw for the awesome stuff on Saturday night at our Awards Event.
                    More detail to follow (no we are not going to raffle off a xs11. Wish we could) but there is going to be some things to likely make the crowd Hoot n' Holler
                    as if this group needs any more encouragement to Hoot n' Holler

                      Riding down from Northern VA

                      I don't know if its too early for ride plans, but I plan on leaving WashDC, Thu evening 8/25, head out I-66 to I-81 south, overnite in Lexington VA, then ride the rest of the way Fri, down I-26, past Asheville on I-40. Return on Mon the same way. If anyone is going the same way, I'd love to join you.

                      I hope its cooler than its been the last month here.

                        What rally are you going to? Ours is in September!

                        Don't forget to order a shirt.

                            850 from Oklahoma if I decide to go again.

                            It's not the destination, it's the journey.
