Oh stretch, I think you hit the mother load. I think there are more members in this region that are in Illinois than any other state. I am sure there will be a central meeting point figured out by then.

**glwilson** · 12-13-2008, 04:06 PM

Stretch;

I think Roadman is going. I plan on going -- although I will more than likely trailer my bike out and possibly go a day or two early -- maybe leave the the Sunday prior -- if not we will leave on the 15th (Monday).

As we get closer we can try to see who is passing-thru the area to look for possible meeting-points.

phenrichs · 12-14-2008, 12:09 PM

I live in Sioux Falls SD. Which is right I-90 if anyone is going this way. I will also be trailering the bike out.

stretch · 12-14-2008, 08:24 PM

Ok, I might go if I can swing it. Will check back as we get closer.

**biscuitsngravy** · 12-14-2008, 09:58 PM

I hope I can go. I want to see all those Nomads and meet those who ride them. I'm meeting some biker friends from Washington State in North Dakota sometime in the spring and we are going to ride to Saskatoon, SK. The date is not set in stone yet, and may interfere with the Custer Rally. I hope to go on both trips. We'll see what happens. BnG

phenrichs · 12-15-2008, 09:28 AM

Well if the timing is the same maybe you could meet in Custer instead of ND>

**biscuitsngravy** · 12-15-2008, 08:58 PM

Now THAT would be great!! BnG

ponch · 12-18-2008, 08:56 AM

If I go, I will take 20 out across Nebraska.

01nomad · 12-18-2008, 10:17 AM

I'm not geared-up to go yet. I don't even know what's going on tomrrow but I need to be in Nebraska in June. Sounds like a good excuse to ride, but I don't like to ride in groups over 10 bikes. I would also travel Hyw 20 so I can run over those small rattlesnakes that sun themselves on the road.

dougster · 12-21-2008, 11:08 PM

I am tentatively planning to go, if details work out. I have never been to one of these things.

**glwilson** · 12-22-2008, 06:57 PM

To all that can go to the rally; I would suggest that you'll find it to be a great experience overall.

The group will not likely be an "extra-large" group; but should be a "good-sized" group none the less.

While I have not ridden in the area; I have been assured by those that have that it is nothing short of fantastic.

The group should be a diverse group of people (both men and women; my wife will be going with me).

I would say if you haven't been to an event such as this you should do your best to attend -- you are likely to enjoy a lot.

01nomad · 12-29-2008, 01:21 PM

In Eureka Springs there was a long ride and a short ride on the same day. I took the short ride because there was ?? 10 bikes in it. The long ride had twice that many anyway and took all day. The short ride was a little over 100 miles and a few hours, maybe three. They said we didn't get lost once. Strange as I'm sure we went past the same spot twice. Hard to say as I was just following the guy ahead of me..

phenrichs · 12-29-2008, 04:34 PM

Make sure you bring your camera. There is no shortage of places to get fantastic pictures like the ones in glwilson's sigline.

**coacha** · 12-30-2008, 09:52 PM

Hey guys. This is CoachA, from the SERN group. PLEASE come to the National Rally. It will be a blast. I want a chance to meet as many people as possible from this board and who knows when we will ever get a chance to hook up in your area again.

**biscuitsngravy** · 01-16-2009, 11:41 PM

I'm going to Custer. June 14th will be 357 miles via Hwy 20 to Valentine, NE. June 15th will be 224 miles to Custer. Looking forward to meeting you all. We gonna have us a great event there. BnG
