 Ian, I have been to the "Cruso" rally for years, even the year that the
bridge was swept away by the water and the rally was held in a Koa
campgroung. Always stayed in cabin #1 by the bridge, so I could hear the
Guzzis come in and out through the wooden bridge..the sound is pretty
Cool.
 it is a very nice rally put up by very nice people, Mark and barbara. I
will
 try to attend this year. About 4 or 5 years ago they had a lot of
Loopframes at the Rally and Mark took a picture of the Loops line up. If
I
 find the picture I will scan it and share it with you.
I just email Ken and I asked him to keep me posted about the "Cold Pisgah
Rally", We enjoyed it and I just told Sarah we might go again this year if
he has it.
see you soon,
Roberto.

See you soonRoberto.

 Roberto,

The MGNOC Rally in August (1st) is held at a motorcylce campground in
Caruso....very near Mount Pisgah. That's the one you want to attend if
you
 
 can only attend one.

Of course if you can get away the Rally that Ken is talking about will
be
 
 better this year....more Loops there and I bet the weather will be
warmer
 
 too.

Yeah...I remember that nice warm room you had....how could I forget. I
even
 drank your BEER and received some lessons on horse derby stuff. A good
time...

I hope we get a chance to get together this summer....Ian

Ken, what do you refer to as the " Mount Pisgah Rally ", is that the
the
 
 same get togheter than John, Ian and me attended last year in very
frigid
 
 temperatures , three loopframes..Very Cold weather , I saw your
tent up in a
campsite but you never showed up. I might be up to do it again.
It was kind
of different. It was the first ride for my Ebay Eldo and it did
pretty good.
I had the advantage over Ian and John...I had a nice warm room at
the Pisgah
Inn..and let Ian borrowed my tent for the night. it was the
fastest time for
putting up a tent... I have ever seen...it was so cold.
Roberto.

May? Hopefully there won't be frost on the seat this time eh? :-)

I'm always up for a ride as well. As far as I know John will
be doing the
 Mount Pisgah rally again this year, I will talk to him this week &
see
 
 
 what
 the dates are.
