Pulled in at 1:15 pm today ( Saturday) perfect day for the ride home 67* - 75*

It was great to see all those that attended, new faces and as well as old friends. Of course we missed those that couldn't attend this year's rally. See ya at the next North East and East Canada Regional Rally.

Hey all! Was a great time and great folks to share it with. Thanks for everyones work to make it happen. I decided to tough it out and do the trip home in one day. Was just under 700 miles of constant rain that at times was heavy. Pulled into Charlotte about 9:30 PM. Left the bike in the drive, took a hot shower, went to bed, reflected on the thought that it might have been better to stop for about 2 minutes then fell asleep. Today was laundry, clean the bike and buy some groceries and life was back to normal. When's the next rally?

Guess we're the last ones in. Tom and Sue made it home today (Sunday) about 8:30 PM. Some on and off rain on Friday heading northeast up 88 but things cleared up nicely as we got close to Albany. Spent Friday night and Saturday night in the Adirondacks and did a little kayaking on the Hudson on Saturday. Drove the rest of the way home today.

Big thanks to the organizers for a great rally, our first one. We had a great time and it was super to finally meet and get to know all those who attended.

Glad everyone made it home safe.
