Rally ride: are you going to be there?
 

Who will not be at the rally by thursday night or early friday? I am trying to plan a long ride and would like to do it friday if everyone is going to be there. If it rains, we can push it back to saturday.

:lol: Double negative much?

Who will be there, who wont be there...

We'll be there Thursday morning sometime, staying at a hotel Wednesday night and hoping to get there early enough to get a good ride in Thursday. WHen you getting there?

What are you talking about?

We'll be leaving P-cola on Wednesday, spending the night somewhere around Atlanta and taking the last slow ride into Copperhead by early afternoon Thursday.

...can't wait! :)

I am shooting to do what we did last year minus the monsoon I rode through :lol:

Going to ride through the night and hope to get there kinda early thursday.

I think me and gman are suppose to roll in thursday afternoon or so depending on which route we take down there.

I am really looking for who will not be there on friday morning though, so I know who we would be leaving out.

IF I'm not traveling, I want to get there Thursday night. It'll be real late though. Depending how fast they want to get me on a boat...

Seeing as how I've been informed that I'm going...I expect to be there late Thursday afternoon.

:lol at least you have given up hope on trying to make up excuses.

i will be there friday morning

better get there early, I want to head out early so we can make a stop for lunch.

What's this thursday stuff?

Dude, the dates were always 3 Jun 10 - 6 Jun 10...:wink:

yeah i am pretty sure we always planned to stay 3 nights thursday - sunday. So that you mean you would have to be here by wednesday.

I'll be there.

lying SOB

Nope, I'll be there. Don't leave on the ride without me.

Negative. My vacation is spoken for this year.

Seriously, you should ride out to my place this summer with GM.

I tried to come to pittsburgh again this year, but got turned down again.

Whats in Pittsburgh for you?

Vendors and usergroups. Westinghouse mainly.

If it's over a 3 day weekend maybe.

I can tell you its gonna be the 23, 24, and 25th of JULY. Sucka. Plan accordingly.

I get back from Seattle on the 21st. So maybe.

Now we're talking.

Ill be there Thursday...Dinnertime ish?

me too... don't plan on getting up at dawn.

Advanced warning, now that works, I will be able to make it out there for at least a day or so, I may do a track day that weekend too but will figure things out well beofre hand.

You know the rules.

I am well aware of da rules :lol:

Myself and the other two will be there thurs night but staying somewhere else. So We'll be there fri morning.

Ill be there Thursday afternoon. or later depending how the weather is. but most likely this will be my route. If anyone is coming down through Chattanooga or up from the ATL and wants to hook up LMK im all game for a Pre rally rally lol.

Cactus.

I'll be there early per usual. so, like, before the rest of you.

? you weren't there earlier at TWO... trip and I arrived first by like an hour if I remember right

if my plans come out right I could be one of the first rolling in with trip :rockwoot:

not bad for someone with the longest mileage and who is riding his bike there :lol:

well actually I may have you beat for longest trip this year... coming from Rapid City via CO, NM, TX,OK, AR and TN. but I def. won't be first... that's for damn sure! :lol:

No one likes a showoff :lol:

I was figuring it would hav ebeen me or gas man for the longest trip this year. Well at least i won it last year :)

Don't worry about ebbs. Just cause his navigational skills suck and he gets lost so he has to ride twice as far doesn't make his the "longest trip" :lol:

I think i may have the shortest trip lol. Only a little over an hour via Mapquest. Idk if anyone is closer but by bike i can be there in an hour lol.

It'll take me about 2 hrs if I take the big roads, scenic route would be around 3 or so.


Oh, ETA....I will be there for the Fri ride Trip, since your topic asks who will be there though the post asks who wont be there... just sayin

Don't bother

Really? I really thought you had the farther distance...

Wasnt sure I figured you were further north than I am.

What's your miles to knoxville? I'm 495miles via google.

I'm 1 billion miles...but I'm riding. Packing now, in fact. I'll be leaving first thing tomorrow.

750 miles, it looks like youre just due south whereas i have ot travel west also. I think it was 8 something for me to get to copperhead.

We're trailering in. I'm sick of getting rained on and my buddy's never done a long trip like that. Planning on getting there Wednesday or Thursday, depending on if we go hit Cheraholla on the way there or something. If you wanted to do that on Criday it would kick ass but anything will be fun, I'm looking forward to seeing you guys again and bringing up the rear.

Actually me and None were the first two there and drinking beer waiting for you guys...

Well you better have the beer ready for when we get there this time :)

Do you want what I drink or do you want me to pick up some unicorn cupcake wheat bock ale?

:lol:

No we aren't doing the cherrycola on friday, we didn't do this ride last year. Well me and ebbs did, but no one else did.

Well you win. 635 miles for me to get to copperhead

Nah, I'll be bringing up the rear. It's been 5 years since I've owned a bike so it's taking awhile to get back in the groove. I'll be the slowest mofo there and not the least bit worried about it.

Oh I'll be back there too. The DRZ is fun but slow.

Anakee's are money on the GS, absolute insanity. I can't wait for the weekend and test these out properly. I got the turn in of a sport bike now. Got use to riding those flat spotted deathwings, forgot what suitable tires felt like.

Would prolly go with the latter :lol: guess first thing once we get there is to organize a beer run ;)

And tts gg to involve some large trunks. Guess I'm gg.

I dont know if I am bringing my tail bag on the triip but if I do I can prety much carry a case and a half of bottles. So we will be good to go.

:lol: What did I have in my tail bag, three six packs? If I bring my saddlebags, that more than triples my capacity.

If yall really need space, my three hardcases can act as coolers quite easily.

didn't Riceaholic say he was bring'n his truck?

if ya'll need more room than that for alcohol... I may just pass on this "rally" :lol:

Pussy.

:beer:

Exactly.... not enough of that there.

And don't offer to show up now...wrong kind of pussy

We know you wish other princesses could show up and make sure you get cases of Zima, but that's just not going to happen.

Zima? Is that shit still even made? I hadn't see one in years.

this is code for this is my favorite drink

Oh shit, you know better than that. :skep:

Can't. I'll be starting BNCOC that weekend.

I won't have three cases just yet, only going to have a trunk. But it's big enough for two XL helmets, so it would hold some alcohol.

Yeah, i won't be doing too much drinking, either.

You're going to start bein a cock? When did you stop? :D

We're coming in a truck, picking up Sailor Jerry's and coke on the way. If you guys need beer let me know, we're stopping on the way in. We're leaving on the first.

Correct.

Get me some good beer and some miller stuff for riceaholic :lol:

just make sure you bring lots of both so were happy :rockwoot:

I'll have my truck so don't worry about me. I'll get Tommy some of his froot beers too...:lol:

Sweet, then I assume you are making it again this year Rice? I thought for sure we'd run ya off...

hes got someone ot hang out and drink with and swap war stories :)

Hell no I had a great time last year! The way things are looking I should make it. I have the time off, I just need to make sure I can get a set of tires in time.

Any excuse to drink some beer...:lol:

While I dont drink beer, ya'll may have a drinking buddy in my hubby, tho I think his tastes run more to Tommys side of beer.

Sounds like a good man....if thats all he has in common with Tom.

he will come to the dark side :rockwoot:

Just ordered up some parts for the priller too. new plugs and brake pads, I gotta give the chain and sprockets a good look since they have been on there for a while. Then I am going to replace the front springs, a new set of tires (still have that rear on there I put on at TWO last year) and I have to get the rear brake lever back on with the new rearset I bought.

Hope so for his sake :lol:

:lol: He is a self proclaimed beer snob. All that world traveling ruined his S. Ga. craving for crappy beer, he likes stuff I cant even pronounce...

I think he's hoping to sell his kawi and get an ST 1300...what he wanted in the first place.:lol:

Nice on both counts. I rode the bmw sport tourer with the paralell twin motor at the demo and seemed like a nice bike. First time I realy got ot ride something that size.

Thats what he wanted when I first got him into it, then he fell in love with the Kawi Mean streak, but its not a great or comfortable ride. (It looks really uncomfortable just watching him ride it.) We found a killer deal on one in S. FL, but he's got to get rid of his current one first.

I can loan you a rear... 190/55-17 Bridgestone BT002RS. Otherwise, there are some killer deals out there on tires.

Thanks you but I got a set ordered today. 003's in 190/55 for 240 bucks. I worked at a shop for a long time so I can get dead cost. Thank you though...

What sucks is I have to mount them myself...:lol:

Yep I mounted a new rear yesterday yay...

If we pass through the right part of shitville and I can find it I'll pick up some Yeuingling (sp?) and I'll probably bring some Dead Guy. I'll be drinking rum and coke all week, gets me drunk faster with less calories.

yeuingling is freakin everywhere now that budweiser bottles it.

I call dibs on the dead guy ale

I really dont understand why everyone loves Yuengling so much. That shit is/was made an hour from here. It's good shitty beer, but it's not top notch.

We need some fat tire, I love that shit.

'tis good.

I see a trip south for some Fat Tire is in order before the rally!

Agreed. I don't like it at all. There are much better beers out there.

It is a must :rockwoot:

we have fat tire, alot of it

Will there be a place to watch Rampage v. Rashad?

Oooh, good question. I haven't seen any Fat Tire here so I'll count on you, drewpy. If we can't get a PPV I'll have my laptop and can probably download the fight the day after.

I can get the fight on Dish for $44.95 - is there enough interest in this? Let me know
