Therapy is expensive. Riding is cheap. You decide.
Well, I'll be coming up solo. Buddy of mine who was going to come isn't going to be able to get time off, so I'll be riding out all by my lonesome. I guess put me down for a spot in the bunkhouse Mike.

After much debating and head scratching, I've pretty much decided to drive the car again, and trailer the bike. Not that I doubt my bike on that long of a trip, but rather my ass-cheek's and tailbone's ability to withstand that much riding on 1/4" of neoprene, and also just in case I have the unfortunate luck of blowing a tire, busting a throttle cable, etc. I would be stranded on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere on some 2-lane highway, and I gotta be at work at 7am Monday morning. So, trailer it is, and just to make sure, Mike, I'll be splitting the bunkhouse and will bring the cash with me to pay for it.

Already have you on the list.
Probably a good idea to trailer it up so your ass is fresh for our lengthy rides Fri and Sat. Hopefully you can get there in time for the Friday ride if you take the interstates.

Mike, what time are you planning on getting there Friday? I was planning on leaving here around 2am and getting there around noon, but if there's going to be a bunch of people getting there earlier for a Friday ride, I'll leave the house around 11-midnight Thursday night, that way I'll be rolling in around 10am or so.

John, just remember that the bunkhouse will be about the same as a tent spot and is air conditioned. Although, I perfectly understand if you don't want to sleep in the same room as a bunch of 4th graders who keep throwing out homoerotic innuendos.
Ian, I plan on getting there Thursday night. I was going to go on a long ride Friday. I thought you might make it in time, but didn't think about how long it would take you to get there. Maybe we can wait until later then just get back for a late dinner. I couldn't imagine driving all night then going on an really long ride. We'll see what we can work out.

No problems Mike, like I said, I could always get thee a bit early for a nice easy ride Friday. No worries about driving all night and then riding all day. I'll end up passing out as soon as I get home Thursday around 5pm, then wake up around 11 and load up, be there by 10-11am. Hopefully some others are there as well and we can have a nice little group riding around.

Fix and Ryan should get there Thursday night as well so there will at least be 3 of us. A friend of mine may be coming up with me on his cruiser.

I'll put you on the bunkhouse list P. If you end up having a friend come, let me know so we can make sure we have room. I expect you will be going on the Friday ride then?
BTW, the bunkhouse is not the "ho-stell" we stayed at before. It is at the actual campground. I don't think they own the hostel anymore.

Real bikes are built in garages.
I know Shane has bailed on me and I think Phil may as well. Is there room left in the bunk house? Getting my ass down there is going to be a mystery. Wish I could get the 750 done by then but I'm pretty sure hat won't happen. Trying to recruit some others from CLE.
