NorthCentral Regional Rally Route 2012

[glwilson]

Hey Cal...

Yeah... we were able to get some riding in, but it all stopped Sunday morning in PDC. The weather to the north was raining. As mentioned, we (except Gibby) headed south to avoid the rain.

It was chilly riding, but not too bad. I really didn't get that cold, but didn't want to get wet... that would have been really bad.

Look forward to seeing you again next year, because I doubt I'll be making another trip up to that area this year... unless there is a "freak" weekend of great weather.

Marking this on my calendar. Would like to meet up with other Nomad riders, had the bike now for one year and still haven't met up with anyone from the site.

Where's Bloomingdale, Illinois at?

I am at the far northern area of Illinois.

So far, there has not been a date set for the North Central Regional Rally... but there are people working on it. It will be posted, so stay tuned!

We'll look forward to seeing you there, if not before.

I'm about 67 miles East of you, right near 90 and before 290. I have been by Roscoe several times, Lonnie, who is a friend of mine, from GrassHopper Ltd has his shop in Beloit.

Ah heck... we'll be riding together sometime next season then. You're only a hop-skip-and-a-jump from me.

This season is getting a bit "thin" for riding for me and my "blood"; but next year we'll be out and about -- although I'll be out this weekend as long as the rain stays away.

I assume you have taken routes to the northwestern-edge of Illinois and the southwestern region of Wisconsin. If not... that is where I do most of my riding. You'll have to connect with me and we'll have a blast -- and I believe you'll love those areas.

Oh yeah... occasionally we'll have to put-up with a couple other members here that will want to tag-along!!! (BiscuitsNGravy, Stretch, Rayski, Gibby, Cal, Bluekaw and some others on this board.)

It's all fun...

PS: Just checked out your website... really great looking bikes! Who did your leather-work... or am I to assume Grasshopper did it? Looks great. One other thing... I didn't realize all this time that "Grasshopper Ltd" was practically next-door to me. It is a small world. I'll have to get up there sometime to see his operation.

I've ridden a lot of your area, it really is a nice part of Illinois. I do my own leather work, it is a hobby of mine. Yeah, Lonnie is right up the road from you, nicest guy around. I'll ride until there is ice, especially with the Nomad, mine runs hot, which I know it needs to be re-jetted, my Winter project.
