Anybody interested in getting together and riding the BRP for few days in August? Weekends or weekday....doesn't matter to me.
Doesn't have to be BRP either.

hey all, the Vulcan rider's reunion is in middle of August and at Maggie Valley. I was thinking of heading up to it for a day or two and then doing some riding in the area. I'd be interested in the BRP.
However, I will be uncertain for a few days. Finally (escalating pain for 9 months) have diagnosis for problem with left knee. Popital Cyst (sp) inside joint. Doc says surgery tomorrow and back riding with in 2 weeks if all goes well. If is does, then I am in. I'd offer to the floridians that would join me that the first days ride up can end at home I have in Charlotte NC. Let's all discuss

I would love to go DK, but I'll be back at work the middle of August. Weekend riding begins at that point. Have a good time.
Todd, you and Sherri have a good time.

I'm retired too sort of. It's called disability. But my wife works so can't always go at the drop of a hat. We might be interested in the BRP and dixie we could finally get together on checking out your seat. Still haven't decided yet on what seat.

You could retire...you'd just have to work the drive up window at Mickey D's or 3rd shift a Circle K and make the coffee so you could ride some. I'm actually contemplating that Circle K gig...$.25 hotdogs and free fresh refills on my coffee mug, that's all I need.
