I see about 30 I should be able to get to pretty easy.
If you haven't already hit these, would you be up for having a shadow when you do?

Is there a website or anything that has information on any of these rallies you're referring to in MN? I'm interested.

We're not THAT far away from you tricker. It's kind of a nice ride if you get off of 52 in Cannon Falls and take the back roads out of town and finally connect with 61. 61 will take you through Hastings and into the SE part of the metro.

I go to Dodge Center quite a bit (family) and it's really quite enjoyable (I prefer to stay off of 52 however)

yeah... 52 for some odd reason has been a death trap of sorts recently wtf is up with that? I suppose it is an art to smoke, drink coffee, talk on the cell phone and read war and peace while driving during the rain these days..

I wonder if the milwaukee area has something like the cities does w/o being Harley oriented.

which reminds me, 105 anniversary this year. Any more, and I'd have to go into the rant thread.
