Jealous! Just like last year...don't have the right bike. I figured I'd have a two-fiddy by now, but it wasn't in the cards

New Treads showed up for the Bikes! Should be in good shape for the Ride, well atleast the bikes will be.

I'm riding my KLR650 and I'm sure its less graceful on the trails then your F800. Defiantly not the perfect bike for this ride but I'm going to have fun even if I spend all day stuck in a mud!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

Today (October 10) is the LAST DAY to sign up for this ride.

Registration will close at the end of today.

The ride is full and then some!

DO IT!

I'll help you pick up your bike.
at least once.

You guys talked me into it! Well, not exactly A very kind soul offered me the use of their DR650 It is a little bit lighter, but more importantly, it has new knobbies while I have 50/50 tires on mine and the K60 on the rear has quite a few road miles on it. Thanks Z!!

I made arrangements to get my registration in, so I will see y'all there!

So Tim -- is that offer still good, or is he on his own now?

Should I have included a clause that indicates the offer of elevating a bike to apply exclusively to that of a BMW F800, orange in color?

:) offer is still good

there's a reason I'm not riding a 650 anymore, it's nice not to lift 400lb each time I run into a tree

you would think, with that much inertia, you could just ride straight through the trees.

Good thing there's no trees on the Bucky route. Or hills. Or Mud. Or muddy hills through the trees.

Mr. Muck, the kitty stickers have to stay. Whether you keep the rainbow leopard tailbag on, is up to you.

My name is all over that bike. Make me proud.

Glad you found a bike to ride.

Great to hear! We'll see you there.
Yea I got a fresh set of knobbies (or "knobblies" for the Long Way Down Fans) to put on the the KLR. That should help me out abit on the trails.

I'll do my best!! And I think I will pass on the tailbag, hope it comes off easy enough Kitty stickers are fine, and IIRC, you have a pretty special vanity plate on it as well

I'm sure it would be nice to have something lighter (Zaboo and I spent the day on some CRF230's a while back and it was an absolute blast) but I am just damn happy to get to participate! Good to hear the offer is still good though...I'm sure I will need all the help I can get!

Shouldn't you tell him about the sidecar?

Oh how I have missed those Zora head photochops of yours, Brian.

Excited to see ya. Been quite a long time.

You get those meats spooned on yet? Only a couple more weeks to go!
