PIP 2012 Awesome ending to a great year

[renate]

Al and I look forward every year to the PIP get to gether.

We love the ride but more so to see everybody again. The friendships we made will last us a life time. Each and everyone , wether they are old friends or new ones, is so unique. For a few days we are leaving our everyday life behind and replacing it with fun and laughter. I must say it is well worth it. This year we were missing a few friends who could not make it (Mike & Jodee, we missed you ) hope you will be back next year. Lowell, you were on everybodies mind, God speed my friend, hoping our pass will cross again someday. THANKS Ann and Gary, for your hospitality and everyone who makes this PIP happening every year. Allready thinking what I can bake for next year. LOL

P.S

Marilyn , I hope you feel better. :bighug:

Wow, more good pics!

[Red1]

Just offering up my thanks as well, to the hosts, the cooks, those who cleaned up and those that showed up. The food was highly edible, Owl (we won't mention the burned dressing), and Gary and Ann - thanks to you guys as well. It's a great spot for a get-together (although I will be truly happy when God calls the roosters home) and I appreciate all the work that goes into making it happen every year. Kudos.

 

There's always a nice mix of truly excellent people at each and every one of these Venture gatherings I've been too. Renate & Al - sorry you had to bug out early, but thanks for posting the pics. So to those I've known for years and to those I just met Saturday - I hope you all had an equally good time, got home safe and have a great fall. And more than likely, I'll see ya'll next year.

 

And "Rolling" Daryl - remember - chock the tires next time!!!

Its OK Bob,

Marylin supplied some hot sex on Saturday...

And it was good!

[sarges46]

And we have just returned and cleaned out the camper and put our stuff away for another year. We had a blast and it was great to see all of you again.

 

The food was great and you are right Red, we won't mentioned the burned stuffing that would just be bad form...eh!

 

My new name is really gonna be Storm Cloud as we got caught again in more rain coming home this afternoon. But it was only for 30 miles or so.

 

Gord a Laura also made it safely home should he not get on.

 

 

Who's bringing the Hot Sex next year!!

We made it home safe and sound after an interesting day of pushing my gas guage to the limit. I forgot if you head south out of Superior,WI on 35 you better get gas as it's 30 miles between stations, guess what I did? DOH made it on fumes . Great weekend thanks to all that hosted we really appreciated it. Great group of people,great food, great riding, dang I should of asked for work off sooner, years past. For Labor Day weekend I have to get it on the calandar by about Jan. 4 (schedule comes out Jan.1) or I'm S.O.L. Someone at this salt mine, will be that guy next year(insert diabalical laugh).

 

See ya down the road,

Jim and Diane Bryant

And remember NOT to park your bike at the bottom of the downhill run! Headlights don't help if you go down back end first! It was great meeting you and your brother Daryl - hope to see you next year.

It was nice meeting you both, hope you can make to the rally in IL next July. I did a similiar thing - put in 5.25 gallons at my gas stop in Point. That's the most I ever put in it. That was 20 miles on reserve.

Had a blast!!! Thanks for the hospitality and I did try out the reserve as Lancaster and a few others were closed for the holiday. Put 19.8 L into my 20L tank...at St. Malo. Had visions of a nice long stroll pushing the beast! Was great to meet you all and will try to make it again next time. Will bring my own rooster (he's a mute)!!!

I just wonder what he was doing to get it rocking? By himself? On second thought........ I don't want to know.

Hey Red how about that conversation with rooster at 5am :rotf:

We have the same talk every year and he ends up getting in the last word. I took some pics of the offenders so Ann would have something to remember them by.
