Great pictures Dave, looks like the Rally was a great time! Wish I could have attended. That's a sharp looking t-shirt you wore the day you rode to Johnson's Shut In and Elephant Rocks State Parks. Thanks for sharing all the pictures.

A friend of mine gave me that shirt.

Very cool pics!
Anyone else turn into inspector gadget when they see your same bike in your same color and look how theyve got it setup lol

When you all doing a meetup in NY ?! Lots of good adirondack an Vermont riding ;)

Thanks Scott. The usual high temp is 85. But it was around 100 while we where there.
Everyone had a good time though.
The heat during the rides seemed to make the pool and cold beer even better.

Looks like a great ride/rally. Good work Dave and all

And a good time was had by all. I really enjoy these rides where a bunch of folks get together, some for the first time. I've made some lasting friendships from rides like this. So much fun and great camaraderie.

And great pics. The underground photos are beautiful but not for me. I was in similar caves in Croatia back in the 80s and it gave me the willies. Fresh air and blue sky is for me.

There are some excellent looking Nomads in the pictures but I note that someone brought their Harley in a trailer. Gee but I wonder why.

The rallies are the best part of the VBA. Those that don't attend are missing out.
Like you I have made some great friends from going to these events.

In the case of the Harley on the trailer I gotta say that this time I don't blame him.
It's a long way from south Louisiana even when you're feeling good.
But when you have kidney stones riding it up just isn't an option.

Just poking a little fun about the trailer and Harley guys Dave. I'm kind of there myself. After riding all over the country these last 12 year, my advancing years make long rides just a bit more difficult. I've had trailers in the past and might look for one again. I'd like to attend a ride in your area and if I do will trailer to Tulsa, leave it at a friend's home and ride from there.

But then again, a ride back to Maryland to visit my son sure does sound good to me. I planned it a year or two ago but it didn't work out. I rode to the Arctic Circle instead. I am fixing the Nomad up for the long ride though, just in case......
