Rally rides
Just a big thanks to the leaders of the 2 rides. We split into 2 groups and went separate ways on Tuesday and Thursday. Then switched and did the other ride the 2nd day. I can't speak of the questionable job Tom did on his rides as i wasn't with that group.Just kidding. I'm sure Tom's rides were great too. Big thanks to Tim for the 2 rides we were on. Showing us some new roads and leading us back safely.
Huge thanks to all for the organization of this rally especially Tom

+1 completely agree. Tim cleared the forecast of all rain (at least for his group). Big thanks to Tim for showing us the beautiful country he rides in and to Cindy for telling him how to get there.
Tom & Tim lead the rides but there was so much work that we never saw; planning rides, meals, accommodations and many hours of riding to determine which works for everyone. Thanks to leaders, wives, and friends who helped make this a success. THANKS, to all who made this possible.

Kudos guys,great riding both days(except for the line painting)was a bit of a ride catching up with the group Monday at the tail of the pup but still had a good time riding.Thursday,I left a bit earlier at 6.30 but got stopped in Speculator for a little above the limit,didn't like my speed,didnt like my helmet,didn't like my pipes and somehow lost my inspection sticker off the forks.Was a pretty decent guy,talked about where I was going and who I was meeting up with and after I gave him my licence,he seen I was a vetern and let me go with a warning.Pulled into the motel just as the group was getting ready to leave so didn't have any times to rest,just took off riding again but a great day.Left at 6.30 in the morning,rode all day and left the motel at 6 or so and got home about 9 so was a good ride.looking forward to the next one
