Hey Joe trying like heck to make there for June . My wife and i were there last Aug and man those roads are twisty and hilly. I am from northeast Pa and they got us beat for sure. Never saw passing lanes on left hand turns before. I loved it but the wife well she was not as enthusastic about it especially in the rain and the fresh tar and gravel that they were putting down. Hope to make a solo trip this year so I can open her up.

Yeah I just talked to our nine fingered friend  It's possible he'll be with me  Not heard from Big Al yet. Bernie had expressed some interest in joining us as well. I talked to Paul ( Wimp ) tonight also he's still trashin' around in Key West and won't be home in time to ride.

Hey Joe, I'm still recouping from a bout with a virus. I will see how it goes and check on possibly taking Friday off. I will call you later. Let us know when you find out if you have to work or not. Right now the weather looks good for the ride! Dubs

Joe, I'll watch the weather from up here and decide whether I'll come down and ride with you. It would be nice to get some rain up here and wash the salt off the roads. I'll text you if I am heading your way.

No Lynyrd Skynyrd T SHirts were injured in the photo of me lining up Greg's Handlebars for a test
run, he has some sort of vibration and I think better with a tight chrome helmet on my head.
ALthough it looked to me as if Gordon may have busted a gut laughing at me.

Joe they are saying 62 degrees on Fri. a little cooler on Sat. not much chance of rain. I have to run my route Friday but we will plan on seeing you guys at the motel Fri evening. Anything you may need, trailer,tire's,ect. my number is 304-667 and then the same as the last 4 of my handle on here. Roads seem to be clear of gravel and debri...was up at Marlinton this past Friday.

Joe just saw that they posted the date for our annual "We Care Poker Run" today. it is the same weekend as the ride. Each year we pick a local family with medical needs and hold a pokerrun for them. This year it will be for Jeff Thompson...a tow service owner that was hooking up a car a while back and got hit by a drunk driver. Anyway if your Sat. ride works with our timing we will all be back at Spare Time Sports bar North of Lewisburg.About 45 miles from Marlinton, with live bluegrass music,and about 200-300 riders. We usually get back in for the music and ect. about 5 PM. Anyone that wants to ride in the Poker Run..we sign up and leave by 11:00 am on Sat. June 11
