Witness, That SUCKS!

I've got to hand it to you, you are one tenacious dude for not canceling the trip! I'm looking forward to meeting you this weekend.

Witness: glad to hear that you're still vertical. Be safe and see you there!

GrayWolf · 08-17-2012, 07:13 AM

Glad you are okay Witness.

First camper show up last night in the middle of the storm. Threw up his hammock and racked out although I still see his bike down there now. I expect most folks to arrive tonight after the activities at the track come to a close. I've put some bikes out in the driveway so its easier to spot.

See you all soon!

Never been to MotoGP but looks like it could be fun. How many acres did you say you have there? Does it get pretty crowded or do people have a little space. Any photos of the area in general. You are very generous for offering this for people Gray!

The area available for camping is a couple acres, I've never had a crowd large enough for people to be crowded. You can see photo's on some of the previous rally's threads.

Slow year so far, this time last year I had 12 campers, tonight only 3. I hope you all make it tomorrow or the four of us will eat really well.

I plan to roll in around 11 or noon on Saturday, set up the tent, and head over to the track for qualifying.

D.T. · 08-17-2012, 08:41 PM

This sounds like fun. I made it for the first one in 2008?

If only I was rich and had time off...

Have a good time peeps....

Watching Moto2 qualifying right now. Stoner, Spies, and Hayden all had wicked highsides during MotoGP qualifying. Stoner and Hayden are injured. Spies returned on his backup bike.

not going to make it to your place tonight, got a late start today and a couple of Michigan friends decided to tag along, no tents so we found a room, Just got in and don't want to get back on the bike, sorry, cause I know you were expecting a bigger crowd

Well be that way. I guess I just won't hold an event next year. If nobody wants to come I mean....

Just kidding. Glad you made it down safe.

GW, thanks for the hospitality! I had a great time; it was a pleasure meeting you, your family, and the inmates.

Hope to see you again at the Labor Day Rally.

Home safe from a wonderful weekend. Thanks to Graywolf and his family for the magical hospitality. Most excellent!

GW, many thanks for opening up your place. Enjoyed the visit with you and the others. Good times all around.
Rolled home around 1am. Avoided the rain.

I'm glad everyone came. I am still a little disappointed by the turnout but cleanup after a smaller gathering sure was easier!

Until next year!
