    I booked site 92 at Lake Chelan for May 17 to May 21.In 2012 I will show up in a 1500 Goldwing/Hannigan and the same lovely girl and dog than last year.This bike is a bit pompous but VERY comfortable and the wife likes it very much.
    Who else plans to be there?

    Hope to make it next year. Was there for the first '09 and second, but missed last year.

    Here's my monkey from the first rally. Have no idea who he is, but he agreed to ride with me in the field events

    to be the youngest.I built my first bike when I was 16.Attached is picture of my rig in 2009.
