See BD, this is why you'll never catch me in a game of Chess wiff Trip. He's always thinking 4 or 5 moves ahead of the rest of us. You lose one guy from Cali. and gain 15 or 20 Kanucks. He's gotta spread the love 'round evenly. Maybe a little more in NC. :) I know it ain't fair. A fair is where you eat corn dawgs, cotton candy and ride the Merry-Go-Round.

I know on the surface my actions appear harsh, but I just know a cross country trip on the way to the national rally will be a rewarding life time experience for young Bradly, is the reason for the sever wet noodle beatings. Believe me after this is all over BD's gonna go back home and start a thread of mushy accolades thanking me for nudging him to do it. ;)

I would look forward to seeing everyone again, thats for sure, but I gotta pick and choose which trips I can go on and which ones pose logistic problems.

Young Bradly? I wish my Deer Friend!! LOL

We'll see...

Hi Blowndodge "Darksider" or anybody else: I did not want to open up a can of worms, all I was doing is showing an interest in this ride. I am a newbie, don't want to ruffle any feathers....

Cheers

Don't worry about it... after you hang around here a bit, you'll find that no one has any feathers left to ruffle!

Hey vulcanguy! Welcome to the forum. I just can't stand dead air in a thread. Blowndodge is a laugh riot and I just like to hear his sarcastic come backs. If you noticed yesterday he had a -1 karma and I gave him one to make it the 0 that he truly deserves. When it comes to knock down drag outs, he handles me with kid gloves 'cause he's way up there in the league with the big boys ie Todd and SWB. I noticed they've been awfully quiet with their opinions concerning this matter.

Anyway, if it were my decision, I'd hold the next rally somewhere close to Snakewood, California so BD would be there. :)

If the rally was in CA. I'd go there. :'(

Fantastic spot for a rally. We've been looking for an excuse to go back to Deals Gap and this is perfect. How is the weather in June? Hopefully not quite a hot and humid as the first of August, but what the hell, if it is, it is.

Hey CycleCat, if you don't like the weather in this area just stick around it's bound to change, where else can it be 35 at midnight and then 80 at noon?
