Bump, Well I am going looking next nice day for a dealer here in central IL.

 

JD is the thing here in Illinois!

 

Let's get this topic going again.

Posted

yeah guess I'll just have to wait for a new target. Called all the dealors in NC and none have a combine in front of their dealorship. Apparently not a big to do item here.

Well,I feel that our Indiana members are dropping the ball...:stickpoke:

In the past week,I've been past 3 dealers in the hoosier state that had combines out.....

But I was in the semi,so I couldn't do it......:whistling:

But if it all works out,I should be able to get the pic this weekend.....:)

Karen and I went for a putt Tuesday after work, went fondy and took a picture of the light house with a large body of water behind it (if a frozen lake winnibego counts for that). Not even 10 mile into our 100 mile adventure, we ride by the dealer in Waupun with 6 combines lined up(old to new).

 

Not to mention any names, but 2 members probably went right by this place on the way to the St Patrick's Day Parade last Sunday. Where's the pics guys????

 

Seriously, Somebody please get this soon, as we are off work tomorrow and would really like something new to look for.

 

IH Truck Guy, you ridin' Friday?? We could do lunch somewhere if you're not truckin'.

 

Scooter Bob and Karen

 

P.S. I just looked at my map of states visited, If we can make MD, we could add 2 more, just never been a big fan of going east. Never know though. Dan, do you ride out in a day?(not that there's anything wrong with that)??:Venture:

 

 

P.S. For those new, the current target still is a pic of "you and your bike in front of a John Deere combine at an implement dealer"

So that was you I saw running thru town earlier this week. I wondered. Was out running around getting part to fix the son's car and saw a nice Venture running around.

 

We need to get together and ride later this year. Still waiting to get mine out of the garage.

There is a Caterpillar dealer about 30 minutes north of me, nice "blah" yellow colored tractors and combines of various sorts. What's a John Deer? :stirthepot:

This is one John Deer!

I met a 07 Blue venture last tuesday on Hwy 151 near Columbus, Wis....... would it have been any of you guys?

 

Nope, we have an 05 midnight, and we were north and NE of here. We do get down that direction often enough though. What are you riding?

OK,here is a John Deere combine at a farm implement dealer.....:D

 

 

The next target is................................ *insert drum roll here,,,,,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You, your bike, and a full size totem pole.......Good luck...:happy34:

 

 

We had a quick m&e with Scooter Bob and Karen today....:cool10:

Great ride,fantastic people....We had a blast...:)

Shari wants to know if we are going to ride tommorrow....:D:D

We had a great time today...You guys rock....Take care and be safe till we ride again..

That's what I wanted to see, IH Truck Guy in front of a John Deere. (just kiddin Dan) We had a blast today too. Was there a mustang involved in your late post???

 

Wow, a totem pole, you lookin for some part indian type dude to get the next target? This will get us thinkin' a little before the next ride.

 

We'll be busy around here tomorrow, we'll have to see what next weekend brings. 1H region has a chili cook-off/party in Hartford sat afternoon. We might go there. We really need to make a local club party (one of them has an 05 midnight) that night for ABATE business reasons. We'll keep in touch though.

 

Seriously though, we had a great time today with Dan and Shari, wonderful people:thumbsup2:. I hope we meet a lot more like 'em this summer.

 

Looking forward to findin' the next target, Scooter Bob and Karen

:Venture:

There was a Mustang envolved in the late post,but the camera also wouldn't talk to the computer to post the picture..:think:

 

Ya, I knew it was a set up to get me the "IH TRUCK GUY" in front of a John Deere,but to keep the thread moving,I had to take one for the team..:banana::banana::banana:

We have stuff to do as well,but Shari said her and Karen need to get together real soon for more chit-chat..This only means trouble for us buddy...:eek::eek:

 

The totem pole just has to be a carved 7,8,9, or 10' high pole..If you get a indian dude in the pic,you get extra credit..:)

It was fun today...Catch ya later...

"You, your bike, and a full size totem pole"

"The totem pole just has to be a carved 7,8,9, or 10' high pole..If you get a indian dude in the pic,you get extra credit"

 

 

Found this one 5 miles down the road, but it's just way too tall to meet your specs(I guess it's in the 15 to 20 foot range).:doh:

 

It's also way too close to home to meet my specs.

 

I guess we'll have to keep looking. More ridin'; what a shame

 

Later, Scooter Bob and Karen

I'm sorry sir..I do not see you in the picture,so I'm going to have to disqualify that photo....:rasberry::whistling::p

 

Please try again when you can follow the rules....:crackup::crackup:

 

The one in your pic is exactly what I was looking for...I just wanted it to be a tall ..There is no height requirment for this target...other then being taller then you..

I just didn't want somebody to get the pic with a small toy totem pole.....:D

Someone better nail this one soon. If I can get out tomorrow it's mine - I know where there's a HUGE one not too far away from me! :cool10:

 

 

 

Ya ya.promises,promises....:rasberry::rasberry::rasberry:

 

We are counting on you Greg......

We need to get more of you Northeasteners in the game.....:stickpoke:

Say hi to Mary for us...

Later....................................

Hey Dan - That from you way down South eh? :rotf::rasberry:

 

Hoping we'll BOTH make it to see you guys and everyone else at MD. I'm going up to Americade in Lake George, NY first - then down to Dons like I've done the last couple of years. Hoping Mary will be able to join me in Cleveland for MD and ride home with me. She has a few commitments she's trying to work her way out of.

 

If I can get away from work long enough I'm getting this totem pole though! Any excuse to get out this early in Spring!

Bump so I can find this topic easier. Why doesn't someone with the authority "stick" this topic again please?

 

This looks like great fun and another great reason to get out and ride more. I just wish the weather would get better again. If nobody else gets that TOTEM POLE, by Saturday, I think we'll take a stab at it. I just don't want that one 5 miles from the house, thinking more like 50 miles.

 

I think I'll try to start a poll about "sticking" this thread.

 

Wish me luck, Scooter Bob

We're supposed to have nice weather this weekend and I think I know where there is a totem pole about 20 miles from here. But, we have to take my daughter to Bucknell for a tour. It's fun visiting colleges trying to guess which one will take all my money in a year and a half!
