My 5 Florida buddies got here this afternoon. There’s been a few beers consumed in and around our ‘ool (I hope there’s still no “P” in it). Big sirloin steaks on the grill and another round of beers and early to bed so we can get an early start. It’s all back roads for us. Planned overnights are, Savannah, TN / Jerseyville, IL / Carroll, IO /Valentine, NE and into Rapid City on Aug.1. Three days of riding in the Black Hills area and I hope to be at the #10 Saloon for lunch on Friday the 3rd to meet some Forum members. If I miss lunch, I’m sure I will see Jack and Jeff, as their motel is next to ours. Leaving Rapid City on the 4th and plan on meeting up with Geezer in N.D, and he’s gonna ride with us to the Cloquet/Carlton MN area and hope we can meet up with Jack and Jeff again. Then us southern guys are going to take a few more days riding back roads South to the Tail of the Dragon, then continue on US129 all the way to my town in GA. I’m writing all this now, because I’m not taking a laptop and my phone is not smart, so there won’t be updates unless I use a motel ‘puter.
