**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 08:32 AM

We'll hook up with Tricker and Rickster here and Shon here.

I'll print these maps and have them with me.

**Trapper** · 05-29-2008, 09:53 AM

Map changed, come pick me up... I'll ride biatch!

Google Maps

**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 09:55 AM

You can try out my new backrest.

I don't think your map worked.

**Trapper** · 05-29-2008, 10:00 AM

I guess not. It only adds two days to your trip....

exhaust coming off the bike not related to the motorcycle does not increase speed..

I beg to differ... it increases the speed of everyone behind you to PASS you.

cms58 · 05-29-2008, 12:23 PM

when someone says FIRE everyone speeds up.

**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 12:26 PM

Back on topic, please.

I have an extra Camelbak bladder and a Buell hydration pack if anyone could use them. Let me know and I'll pack them until we meet.

Looks like we're headed into stormy weather tomorrow. Everyone be aware that the schedule may shift if we have to wait out storms.

tricker · 05-29-2008, 12:51 PM

i'm seeing that down here the rain is going to be gone by early tonight.. but i suppose your looking down further into our travels.. which i can not see cause the net here is being stupid

stp1971 · 05-29-2008, 12:52 PM

Well hopefully nothing too bad. Just keep us informed of your progress. We will be riding up to the Dragon if it isn't raining.

Check three different forecasts out and you get three different predictions. So I guess the best thing to do is look at the radar the day of.

As far as us coming up there we figure if it becomes a washout for some weird reason we will still get to party with you guys on Saturday night!!!

ShonR · 05-29-2008, 02:20 PM

23hrs before I hit the road. I'll have my rain gear handy and the only things that will delay me are lightening or high winds(ie. tornado, lol!) Otherwise, I'll see ya in Lexington

**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 03:10 PM

Cool. Ride safe. We'll be in touch.

busa-boy33 · 05-29-2008, 03:25 PM

hope you guys have fun without me

**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 04:06 PM

So do we.

Rickster · 05-29-2008, 04:19 PM

Rain isn't a problem till the wind gets real bad, or if we start getting lightening, or HAIL.

tricker · 05-29-2008, 04:21 PM

I swear if it starts to snow i'll just turn around and prepare for the apocalypse...

Rickster · 05-29-2008, 04:34 PM

Anyone planing on using a credit card, or Bank card for gas might want to let there Bank know there will be out of state purchases for the days we will be gone. My Bank has a habit of turning my card off if I don't let them know ahead of time that I'll be traveling, makes for a very long gas stop well I'm on the phone getting it turned back on.

**Clint** · 05-29-2008, 06:38 PM

Great tip. I'll be pissed if that pull that on me. Security is one thing... not even trying to investigate the legitimacy of a card's use is another. Not long ago I heard a story on the radio about someone's vacation being totally fubarred by the banks.

frostbitevinnie · 05-29-2008, 07:06 PM

I have a busy night tonight with grad. nite. Don't know if I will be able to check in again until morning. See ya all in the a.m.

Clint, lets meet at the gas pumps at Coborns.
