It should be. It was intended to already be done. All the required elements are in place excepting the finishing touches on the registration page itself. One of our staff members is pulling her hair out over the things she thought were completed. She has a tendency to insist that everything be just right. We're still looking for this to be the week.  |

Be looking forward to this like i did I-12. And then July to meet old friends and make new friends. And well before you think it's possible-yer heading back home BUT with a whole passle of NEW memories. I'll say i can't wait but like everyone else-i'll have to.  Santa-we will be able to buy Old Style right there where we're at. And that ain't really a bad thing at all.  RIDE SAFE. |

Don't want anyone to go crazy over setting this up ( unless already there) but it is fun to talk about it.
I wounder if we could get a tour of the Old Style brewery, isn't it in LaCross?

T.P. it looks like we won't have any problem finding a place to have a beer or two, three, four, five, I lost count I'll need to start over again? Maybe we could get one of the Micro Brewerirs to do a sampling for a nominal fee? I will have to lookup the area for cheese factories also.

Found Leinenkugal brewing in Chippewa Falls and a nice cheese factory  in Durand Wi. both give tours. It looks like a 250 mile round trip to hit both places, head north threw the countryside and back along the river. Just thinking out loud? Thinking???? not ment to step on anyones toes. Santa |

RIDE SAFE. You got that right. Go down a dirt road and bam, there is a bar. I love Wisconsin its a lot like Michigan. Think I'm gonna make the long trip and come up across the straights of Michigan and down thru Wisconsin. Good ride. |

We had a little snafu, actually two. I thought we were ready to go, but then discovered the registration page wouldn't work in some later versions of IE. We figured out the problem; the fix is easy from the user end, but not so easy from our end. I apologize for the misinformation about opening this week. I have to work tomorrow and, in light of the issues we had, I am very hesitant to open on a day that I'm not available to make fixes. Expect a Monday opening... again I am so sorry!!!

Well Carl, I'm almost tempted to be optimistic and sign up when available. I have some health hurdles to clear before then, not mine.....she's laying in the next room. She hasn't been able to travel for a couple years now but if it changes or a family member comes for a couple weeks....you know I'll be there to take up a seat in the back corner. Even if I have to travel by car. Maybe I could borrow a bike so I can say I rode while there.... I really miss seeing all the old friends from years past and it's killing me to not be able to travel. Here's hoping! |

It is Monday. There has been just one more small bump, but we are firmly committed to an opening in January. I'm thinking tomorrow or Wednesday. The official announcement will come from our vice president.  |

I'm planning to be there, Santa. I spoke with F6gal yesterday. She's ready to open registration but the hotel isn't quite prepared for the inundation. We were discussing whether we could open registration with a note to delay contacting the hotel and trust our member not to call them until a few days hence. It was a very short discussion. |

Hard to believe you guys decieded to come to Lacrosse. I live next door to the linie brewery in Chippewa falls, 2 hrs north. It is pretty plain and simple for me to tell you that if you miss Inzane this year you'll be missing a trip of a life time! This is Gods Country !
