Milacs Run Anyone Interested?? - Page 3 - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

frostbitevinnie · 07-17-2009, 11:04 PM

I was thinking 9ish. Really does not matter to me. The route is 194 miles so with lunch probably 6 to 7 hours total. Could leave later just depends on what y'all schedules look like.

**Clint** · 07-18-2009, 12:57 PM

I'm in. Whatever you guys decide.

frostbitevinnie · 07-18-2009, 06:15 PM

Clint, if Jolene and the kids want to stop by here for some eats they are sure welcome. I know Jolene has some diet issues? I know Oksana would be really happy to meet her and especially the kids. TBH she thinks you're a bore though...

Got the ole MT250 running today. Needs some air in the front and rear tire and the throttle seems to stick sometimes. We can ride a little bit around here as I have a dirt alley and along the tracks. Gotta get more gas and some 2 cycle oil as well.

BTW, I have a proposition for you. I will be making some of my clocks, sold three more of them, and will be making six or seven. You're welcome to join in and make your own.

**Clint** · 07-18-2009, 06:35 PM

Cool. Thanks. We'll probably take you up on that offer. Jolene's dietary restrictions are very minimal. Don't worry about that. Are you thinking lunch on the road and supper at your place?

As for the clocks... I'd at least like to see what you're up to.

frostbitevinnie · 07-18-2009, 07:04 PM

Yeah, lunch on the road and supper here.

It would be this style of clock. As many maple clocks as I have wood for and the rest cherry. Maybe a total of 14 to 16.

frostbitevinnie · 07-20-2009, 07:47 AM

There is a possibility that I may need to cancel. Five MN soldiers have been killed in the last few days so there will be multiple funerals to attend, 5 KIA and one his F-15 fighter crashed in Afghanistan. The details of the funerals have not yet been posted.

Four are listed here, the last is too recent. Red Bull Fallen Heros

More info here MNPGR blogspot

I should know the schedule in a day or two and keep y'all posted.

Better yet if there are funerals on Sat. y'all could join us MNPGR National PGR site and show these guys the honor and respect they deserve. We will need a large # of riders with potentially more than one funeral that day.

My dad died this morning so I will obviously be gone.

Thanks Rick. Looks like I won't be leaving till tomorrow, flying to So. Cal. and my bro, sis, and mom are not easy to communicate with right now.

There is one thing you guys can do for me. Enjoy your life, love you family, mom, dad, sis, bro, kids, etc...
You never know when they will be gone forever and you last conversation my be your very last conversation. I was blessed, talked with my dad two days ago and we had a good one. It ended with "I love you" Can't get better than that!!

tricker · 07-21-2009, 09:28 AM

Thundurburd · 07-21-2009, 09:36 AM

Sorry for your loss Vinnie. Carolyn and I will be praying for you and your family.

leonidas · 07-21-2009, 07:34 PM

That's sad, man.
I feel bad for you.
If this ride is rescheduled, I'll ride in his honor.

frostbitevinnie · 07-21-2009, 11:07 PM

Thanks for all your well wishes guys. Y'all are the best! I leave in the a.m. but I may check in during the week. I'm sure I will need some kind of distraction.

Later!!

Vinnie

BTW, yes I would still like to do the Milacs ride. Kinda bummed as I have been working my butt off getting our place more presentable.

Rickster · 07-22-2009, 07:08 AM

Check in when you can Vinnie, we'll be here.

leonidas · 07-22-2009, 10:25 PM

Milacs is a fun area to ride in.
Was there with some friends just last summer.

Rickster · 07-23-2009, 10:43 AM

There's something wrong with your camera bro, the date stamp says that picture was taken back in 2005 on Feb 19, and I don't see no snow on the ground.

tricker · 07-23-2009, 10:57 AM

pretty warm spring?
