Glad to hear you made it back safely. Sounds like everyone had a great time.

Aaron and I made it in to. I'm well rested now and unpacked. Man what a trip!

Now it's back to the salt mine. :(

We had to make an unscheduled stop in Albany, GA due to a heck of a bad storm that almost blew me, the bike and trailer into a guard rail just a little south of Columbus, GA. I parked it under an overpass near Fort Benning and waited it out for about an hour. Tammy was in the pick-up truck a couple miles behind me.

We made it home safe and sound so it's all good. Great to see many of you at the rally.

davidjones1 · 06-18-2011, 03:15 PM

Ron and Mike glad to see you made it safe, it was a great time we have looked at the pictures 4 or 5 times today alone LOL, can't wait for the next time we we can all get together.
ride safe.

Ken and I home safe.

David it was good seeing you again. And great to see everybody. It was a good rally.

Aaron (Nomad1600) thanks for the gravel road coaching..I made it all 4 times on that road keeping your pointers in mind.

Amy....sorry about your Walmart experience. :-/

Mike...really liked that flag rigging you got on your bike.

Ron....congrats on the fairing! Too bad you did not look excited when they called your number.

LOL

Wife and i got home about 9am Friday ( very short ride ) had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone

nomad1600 · 06-18-2011, 06:46 PM

Deb and I made it home around 3:00 pm yesterday. Had a nice trip home, no bad weather, thank goodness. Kawhead rode back with us so we just took our time and enjoyed the ride. Todd, Amy thanks for putting on a great rally. We both enjoyed it and it was good to see old friends and make some new ones. Nancy you did a great job on the gravel road proud of you everyone behind you was eating your dust :). Kawhead I still think you should use your flag holder to carry fishing rods

. Big Dave good to see you and Dena glad you made it home safe. Long ride too right? CoachA glad you made it back safely and we will talk soon about next year. Hope to see you all again soon.
Ride safe

Nice to have met you too.

Ingrid Burgman and I made it back to the Pittsburgh area early this afternoon. Took it nice and easy on the way back (just like on the way down), spent Thursday night in Middlesboro, Ky then Friday night in Parkersburg, WV.

Was nice meeting everyone, even though Kawhead, Coach and Tammy and DaveJones and Andrea filled our tent up with about 5 - 6 inches of water on Wednesday evening!!

Very nice Rally, hope to everyone at the next Rally.

It was nice of Kawhead, Coach/Tammy and Dave/Andrea to help dry everything in our tent.

tammyallan2000 · 06-18-2011, 10:00 PM

You and Ingrid left too soon, we had wine and S'mores on Thursday night, well Andrea and I had wine the guys had Crown Royal and John and Debbie came down and visited us. Glad you made it back safe, we had a blast camping with you. Your good luck rubbed off on Ron he won the fairing !

Thanks a lot for the pizza y'all!!!! That was truly a life safe after a cold rain storm. That is gonna be a hard debt to repay! Better yet Thanks for the pizza CoachA, Taminator, Davidjones, and Andrea!

That whole day made for a great story to tell people. I woldn't go back and change a thing about it.

'cept maybe I would have had rain gear!

Kain't wait to do it again!

Bull Durham · 06-19-2011, 01:47 PM

What type of fairing? You sure I didn't win it, and he just picked it up for me?

**coacha** · 06-19-2011, 01:57 PM

I won the Reckless fairing at the dinner. One of a few people that didn't get their number pulled for a lesser prize earlier in the evening. #504 is the real deal.

Tell Ingrid we all said hey!

mrfuni · 06-19-2011, 04:29 PM

Sounds like everyone had a great time, catch up with you all next year..
