12 hrs and 30 minutes
771 miles
One frog strangler ( I understand that is southern for the lord just dropped a million pitchers of water on my head in PA) No speed appreciation or other awards
This was about as much fun as I ever had at a ride in even tho the group was small they was all great people and the riding outstanding. Most of em are in both clubs
Really enjoyed meeting BRITMAN, hubcap, coot, thumper, duffy, chris, whisky, and of course Big Al who was lots of fun and all my friends from the Voai and seeing LD and Highbinder, SmokinJoe,
Hope everyone gets home safe and also to Inzane

If you don't know where your going any road will take you there George Harrison
When you come to the fork in the road, take it Yogi Berra (Don't send it to me C.O.D.)

Glad you made it home ok, it was great seeing you again buddy. Alph, TurnBoy, TrainMaster and I made it back despite some hellish traffic in Chicago. 800 miles for me to my folks' place and another 200 this morning home.

Nice Meeting you OSS.
Finally.
Here's a shout out to all the other folks I met for the First Time.
And I even remember a few new names, like Gray, Jet Driver, and that Osborn fellow.
I especially enjoyed singing Dixie with Joe and Britman and the song leader Coot.
Always good fellowship at these rides.
At our age we have nothing to prove and everybody gets along.
Motorcycles are the great equalizer, as even people that don't always get along, find a way to get along at least for the rides sake.
Here's to future rides.

One frog strangler ( I understand that is southern for the lord just dropped a million pitchers of water on my head in PA) "Frog Strangler" (or 'toad strangler') is what nice Southerners use instead of "turd floater" when in mixed company.

oss, what a blast!! It’s always great to see you! I ate my left over hamburger on the ride home!! Tasted great!! Glad you didn't get any speeding tickets either!! I thought I was going to donate to the Illinois department on my way home, saw a Ferrari, had to catch up to check it out, he took the exit ramp, I didn't slow down though!! Just as I past a trooper I noticed he had his radar gun out checking speeds!! He came up behind me, I thought that was it!! I pulled over to the right, just as I did a red pick up truck goes speeding past me!! the cop pulled him over instead!!!!
Although I only met some of the guys on the last night, it’s great to be able to put a personality with some of the names! That smoking joe is hilarious!! I liked the cigar that duffy was smoking, smelt good, turnboy (john) rides like a pro!! Can’t wait to show some of that video he took to my co-workers!!
Well, only 51 more weeks till we do it again!! I told my wife that might be in south Dakota, she actually got excited to come along, in a car that is……..

I was sorry to hear that you left directly from your ride Mark as I was lookin forward to seeing you again
Saturday I went up on the BRP, met up with MP, Jetdriver, Al (not big Al) after I got to the Graveyard pull out and then to the Wheels museum in the afternoon
Hope to see you down the road
