I've heard that the weekend of the 7-9 has the highest probability of contraction of the South African strain of Workitosalitis.

"The main symptom is the inability to perform paid labor. The CDC has declared campfire smoke, open exhaust fumes, and large quantities of alcohol (especially home brew) as the only effective cure for this new strain of disease."

From the desk of Regina Benjamin, current Surgeon General.

Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

I was talking to the wife about this today- depending on the situation with her niece, she may or may not be able to make it. Assuming all is well, I will definitely be there.

And I know I offered this for the GTG but backed out, but I will be taking a trailer down to Bama. So if anybody has cargo or bikes that need hauled down just let me know.

Gotta talk to the wife and see about work...
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

Damn right! You guys are already written down for a spot at my place. Don't leave it vacant!!! hahaha! And bring the wives....Denise would be so relieved to have a break from sausage fest 2011!
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

Kiley, I hope to bring mine! She now has a permenant job with Vacation Time ;D ! But we still don't have any money :'( so I hope to save enough between now and then.
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

How big is the trailer ;) Hmmmm....
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

4 by 8. So with my 650 and Von's 650 there is room for 1 more- but that is TIGHT. If I can help in any way, just say the word.
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

Nah, just got my mind working - but frankly it's the ride from PA to Toronto that is the nasty bit in October. I'm likely going to rent a minivan with a friend and haul 2 bikes down inside the van.
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

Is Kemp coming again this year Tim? I enjoyed his company last year. If so, let him know he's always welcome.
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

He's working on it. I'll be likely traveling with one or two of my other friends - things are being sorted :) But even if I come on my own, I'm coming.

If I rent a minivan and just put my one bike in it, I can sleep beside it and save a ton of money on the hotels ;)
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

So far as I know, all the spots on my trailer/suv are filled, but if anyone drops out ill be sure to post up a slot open and oming from Asheville nc.

Tim, this option would also allow room for another bike to make it back with you, and we all know there are deals to be had there! I will for sure be in the auction this year right when it starts!
 
Re: DO THE TON - Alabama October 2011

Tim, thanks for the heads-up on the hotel. Kelly and I have reservations confirmed! 8)

I too, would like to see Kemp again. We didn't get much time to talk last year.
And his photos are EPIC.
