It will be about 7 of us also. We will leave Kosciusko early, head up the Trace to Tupelo, go through Shiloh National Park and then straight through the whole state of Tn. Then we plan to go through the Land between the Lakes. Will get to Sturgis late and head back home early Sunday morning. We will come back through Memphis, which is the shortest way for us. Maybe we will see Yall their!!!

I guess I am getting too old. I looked at some pic galleries online from past events, and some of those pics scare the .... out of me. Well, maybe not that far, but it was interesting to say the least.

I'm only 3 hours away from there, might be an interesting trip...sometime.

Few years ago we were coming thru there just at the end of sturgis ky on our way back from Canada. Stopped to gas up and talked to other folks on bikes. One guy told us his bike got stolen up there in the parking arae where they have security (sure enough he was riding pillion on another friends bike- yes it was a harley). They said (the guys they hired to watch the parking areas) they saw folks loading up a bike but figured it was theirs.....after getting on a thread somewhere found out 2-3 bikes stolen from the parking lots up there.......just thought I would mention.

I have been there for the last 6 years and havn,t seen any trouble but that don't mean there wasn't any. When you get 30,000 bikes any 3 times that many people in one spot you are asking for trouble.

Attn formikec

did you just buy your 02? Did it come off ebay from a couple in Goodlettsville? And were you on Broadway yesterday mid day?

I was crosing the street and saw a 02 came color. Don't see those too oftern around here.

Hello Skeet, you got it partially right. I did buy it off Ebay, went to Orlando, FL to get it, though. Rode it back up over two days (and enjoyed every mile). Have put about 2k on it in about 3 weeks.

And, yes, that was me coming down Broadway yesterday afternoon. Do you work downtown?

Didn't get it in Goodlettsville, though. There is another one around here because I have seen it parked in the State Employees motorcycle parking behind the capital building.

The color is a really nice color. I like what someone on here called it..."Blondie".

[skeet]

Hey Mike, that was me calling your bike "Blondie". I almost bought one on ebay just like yours, but the thing was so filthy, that just turned me off to the bike. I have posted my experience with that bike on here.

Next time you see an "old broad that is blonde in a blue uniform working downtown" ask if she is "Skeet". Oh, my hair is short. Say hello anytime...

[formikec]

Okay, I think I have seen you downtown. Are you usually on 2 wheels, 4 wheels, 4 hoofs, or 2 feet?

Go easy on me if I "mess up". I really do try to not mess up! Next time you see me, wave or hollar if you can. ;)
