Add another. Jrichard is going to meet us and ride up there with us. he hasn't responded to this post but he will be there. Randy, I would like to pass the hat around for Freebird at the M&E. I like ECK's Idea. Originally Posted by Eck Every time there is a meet & eat, lets all pitch in and donate $1.00 and give it to the person who posted and arranged the M&E. After that M&E takes place this person sends the money collected to Freebird via Pay-pal or through the mail, and posts what they collected. I feel that a hat or something like that would work better. That way if you can then "GO FOR IT" if you can't then No-one will know. I think this is a good way to raise money with-out discouraging people to attend M&E's What do you think? If you would rather not then I will understand.

Welcome back. Is Patricia Going to be with you?

I agree that it is a longer ride. I could take a more direct route also that would be about 1 hour less, however i enjoy the ride and esp.. with friends so i'll be taking the adVENTURE on this day.

Jim, Why don't you and Bob shoot on over to Leesburg and meet us at Sheetz. Martinsburg WV is only about 1 hour away from Leesburg.

Yes about 10-15 min at each stop! Might not be enough time. but we can make up time on the road. Also we will not have to get you into your many layers of clothing so that should save time:whistling:

I rode through it on my very first M&E. I was saying to myself, when Muffinman told me what we were going to do, what have I gotten myself into! Today its one of my treasured VR.org pictures:thumbsup2:

If that is the way you want to spend your trip I say go ahead. I couldn't imagine that anyone would have an Issue with you doing this. Heck, with having a "Vendor" at MD that would make it into the "BIG TIME":rotf: Can you make the rear passenger seat of a corbin "softer" for my Wife and Daughter? If so then Put me on the list.
-
Great then give me your other 3/4 mil. and i'll buy you a bike that you don't have to fix all the time (2nd gen:whistling:).:rotf:
-
Nice upgrade ECK. So when all the lights gonna be put on:whistling: Ride safe Bro.
-
He LIVES!!!!!!!!!!! So many bikes to look at. Soo many riders to talk to. SOOOO little time!
-
Prayers sent from Virginia for Lonna and her mom. Heck i'll even send them for you to get a good night sleep while Lonna is away. Lonna stay safe on your trip prayers are on the way.

Be careful...............be very careful:no-no-no:
-
OK If I gotta.
-
YES BRING THE TOMMYGUN:rotfl: PA will never be the same after this M&E:whistling:
-
George, I figure that I'll wait till about April 6ish and see who all is going Set up meeting points with everyone that is going and do a VA Ride-in. (with the others from the south NC & SC) So I guess we will call it a Southern Invasion Ride-in. More to follow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
So you didn't tell anyone where she went!!!!!!!! I don't really think that she is available:rasberry: Her being away this weekend proves that they are not physically connected. but what will poor Sleeperhawk do without her. Looks like he will be eating out alot.

I got a pair of the Dimond R ones for Christmas. I was one of the 217 lookers.

I have been using these for a few years. Great boot in both cold and hot weather. these are the most comfortable boot I've ever worn. I'm on my third pair. the side zipper is also a plus.

I ride year round also. Sometimes I don't start the bike for 2-3 weeks. I have an 04 with the original battery, it has never been on a Battery tender, it starts without a problem everytime. Gonna get a new battery before it poops out. With my luck its gonna not start when I'm away from home.

How often do you update the website where you post who have registered? I just wanted to make sure that I'm registered OK.

I never liked the tank emblems and eyebrows. I took them off years ago. I think the bike looks cleaner without them. Nice job with the paint color. Nice looking bike.
