Had a ton of fun at the Blue & Gray Ride last year... but alas, the oldest step-daughter decided to have her wedding on the 12th (funny, nobody checked with me first  ??? ).

I tried to get her to move it a week  (I actually did)... even tried bribery... she wouldn't budge.

Oh well.... I told the wife's other two, when the time comes, I would pay for them to elope to Vegas (fingers crossed).

Hope everyone has fun... maybe next year.

Alas, I will not be able to make it.

Post lotsa photos.

West Virginia is a beautiful state we had the VOAI Rally there last year and the roads and scenic views are awesome. Look forward to seeing y'all again Robin

I'm in!

[Rams]

OK, I'm new to this forum and have a couple of questions.  I've been riding for over forty years but have never attended one of these events. 

Bardstown is the start of this ride but does everyone return to Bardstown each night?

Is there a start/return time for each day?

Does everyone gather for breakfast, lunch and evening meals?

Is there any down time for simply getting to know each other?

Although I'm a newbie to this group, you can call me

Unfortunately, I am scheduled to work both Saturday and Sunday but, I'm planning on making the evening activities.  

I am in another group that does something similar to this.  I host the Annual Bluegrass Fieros Cookout and Lying Contest.  We have a lot of fun kicking tires and telling stories also.  Looking forward to it.  I should be easy to spot, I'll be the guy riding a Valkyrie.

IF I can talk the wife into letting me go as she did for the B./G ride, would there be an open bed or some floor space someone would like to rent out to a poor, valk owner?? Id like to bring ol phat arse, but I dont have a trailor anymore. hae to ride...


Im just checking ahead just in case momma says to get out!! I really want to be there for this.

[RoadKill]

DOGG, Gunslinger and I will be there sometime Friday evening....With a handshake you WILL have accommodations, but it IS B.Y.O.B !  LOL    I'd give up my bed and sleep in the bushes if that was the only way we could meet. Git yer arse to Bardstown! 

[ChromeDome]

Will be there right on time. Chromedome is joining us also.

I already have reservations for one room, as far as I'm concerned, you can have Dales bed and he can sleep on the floor. Can't be as cold as it is when hes at home with his wife!

Highbinder said 9 am...

[chip]

Got an updated list of participants? Anyone coming through or leaving St.Louis ? My ridding partner Dave and I should be  pulling out by 9am Fri. Looking forward to the ride.

[Gunslinger]

Planning on making it to the arch on the way out or the way back, will depend on how the coin lands. I doubt that we make it through by 9 am though... St. Louis is a 6 hour ride.

[chip]

Yea, Gunslinger GPS says about 5.5hrs from my home just 40 miles Southeast of St.Louis to the hotel,my buddiy is working second shift til midnight Thurs. We would normally be pulling out a little earlier if you need any info on St.Louis PM me glad to help

[Dave Weaver]

Fudgie and ChromeDome, I believe you have the right exit #, but the town is Southport.  Not trying to correct you, just didn't want you heading for Speedway by mistake.

[Rams]

I'll be there Friday evening and most likely Saturday evening.

[PIBIT #34]

Can't wait!! Heading out to Providence Rhode Island until Thursday pm and then a long beautiful but fast   ride down to Bardstown arriving in time for some tire kicking before dinner.
Look forward to seeing you all there!

Dave, its the last exit before 465 east, I put it in my gps as Indianapolis and it came up fine. Its on S keystone ave and shows up as an Indianapolis address.

Dave just makin' sure we are on the same page....We are meeting at the Hardee's at exit 122 off I-75 near Tommy's Motorsports the Suzuki / Kawasaki dealer not the other Hardee's you stopped at while pulling your trailer

What I meant is that St. Louis is a 6 hour ride from home, and I doubt we will be leaving early enough to be there by 0900
