I did not get a quote on the rate. Assuming it's 90-100$ seems to be the going rate in the build back better economy  |

Cool, I put in a vacation request with the boss to once again attend this important event! Hope to make it, we sadly missed last year due to family matters- the beautiful T- Bird bike will doubtfully be road worthy in time, so GiG & Sis are likely to cage it…  |

I did not get a quote on the rate. Assuming it's 90-100$ seems to be the going rate in the build back better economy Booked my room yesterday. I didn't hear the total but she did say that she was adjusting the rate for the group. I just assumed that she was adjusting it down.  |

Bumping,
Unfortunately I lost my last Grandma and will not be attending the Hillbilly Ride this year, as I most likely will be heading to Illinois to attend the services this weekend
Ya'll have some fun, friendly reminder do not re-book rooms for 2025, we will be relocating the Hillbilly Ride to a new destination for next year.
thanks!

I've seen that a few have opted not to come this weekend for various reasons.
Looking at the forecast there is a chance of thunderstorms throughout the weekend but it isn't supposed to be a total rainout.
I am wondering though, Who is coming?
Unless, the forecast does become a total washout I still plan on being there, but it isn't going to be much fun if I'm there all by myself.
So, if you're still planning on coming how about giving a shout out?

I didn't put the weather kiosh on it, I was just repeating what some others have said. I'm keeping an eye on the forecast but so far it looks like normal summertime stuff, cloudy with a chance of passing thunderstorms. My current plan is to head down on Friday and if it turns out that I'm all by myself, I'll probably head home sometime Saturday. |

I didn’t think you Really had the power to influence the weather, but the biker superstition is to never utter the liquid precipitation words  I know you’ll make the most of it regardless, was looking forward to see you guys for sure! Talk soo, Buddy :cooldude - wish we could be there |

Sorry I'm not making it Mark. I've been to several, and it's generally the closest group ride to me there is. I have things going on right now, and in a few weeks a buddy and I are taking a longer jaunt (NC-TN). The heat and rain have started up here. So much for Spring.  |

I'm still planning to attend. I'm hoping to slip in before the afternoon showers pop up, but I might be cutting it close.
Looking forward to another Valk weekend!

Well if ya'll are caging it, Come and visit me... I would love to see ya both ! I'm only 180 miles round trip  Honestly I have 200+ more plants to get in the ground Sat.. If the weather had been better last weekend ( to have it all prepped) , I might have gotten all my plants in Mon - Wed.. That was my plan.. Till the weather didn't change soon enough for me to till the gardens a few more times.. It was still a tad heavy to do it on Monday. And June as soon as the weather break for 5 -7 d of sun ,It will be hay making time. And can't be in the garden then.. |

And NO one took pic! With just 3 of us there we didn't take very many pictures. We did however spend time talking, riding and eating.   We had lots of good conversation Friday and Saturday. Got in a good ride on Saturday and found some good food at a roadside stand. The weather held out for us for the weekend. I made it within 4 miles of my house before the skies opened up on Sunday. This was after a long and meandering ride home, had I taken a more direct path I would've avoided the rain. But, where's the fun in that? |
