Russ, I'm rubbing my lucky rabbit's foot for you, so you can get those old stars to align so you can make SW-FOG! Old Michael and Big-D are also rubbing something, but it's not a rabbit's foot! jes' sayin'

Well I'm glad OM has made it official and finally convinced BeemerDon to allow him to attend for the small fee of 50% of his take on autographs & back rubs!

Russ get your ass in gear and do it. I'll promise not to put my empty beer bottle in the center of the table this time. Hmmm.... I had it in a brown paper bag and I think we were going to light it up at SFO. Naaah. I don't think I would ever do that. All kidding aside it would be great to see you and your SO again.

I guess I missed a post somewhere along the line. At what point did Beemerdons decide he wasn't making the trip? Was looking forward to meeting you.

Oh yes...... BeemerDon is attending this years SW-FOG. You couldn't beat him away with a stick!
You will have your chance to meet him and buy him a drink!
In fact, you can buy his friends a drink too!!

After actually meeting him, you may wonder why and the hell you ever looked forward to it and wish it had never happened.

ALRIGHT, EVERYBODY: SW-FOG 2010 is just four days away. So, if you live 2K miles away from Taos all it will take you is four easy-peasy 500 mile FJR days to ride here. Rooms are still available and Saturday banquet dinners can still be purchased, when you arrive at the Best Western Kachina Lodge. 1-800-522-4462,

A Bulls work is never done!
The weather report is Clear, Cool mornings and warm afternoons. It's been around 32 in the mornings up there, so it will be a little chilly when kick stands go up, but warm up around 10. We went up to the BMW gathering in Sipapu this last weekend. The "Old High Road to Taos" between Truchas and Penasco in under construction and is one lane for a short spell and dirt/gravel for about 2.5 miles. not too bad to navigate un-less you follow a water truck through. See you all there!

Noted! Was planning on hitting that one. Perhaps work will be on hold over the weekend days? Regardless, thanks for the update.

Tomorrow morning early I hit the road. I plan on an over-night stay in Albuquerque Tuesday night, then riding up the 550 to Cuba Wednesday morning before turning on the 96 to the 84 north to the 64 south into Taos. Total distance on my second day will be about 200 miles. Should arrive Taos around noon allowing for multiple stops and taking my time.
If HRZ is reading this, I remember a big portion of the time I lived in Albuquerque the interchange of I-40 & I-25 was under construction. I think I was able to enjoy that completion for about a year after it was completed.
My wife worked at 1st State Bank in downtown. I went to pick her up one day because her car was having some warranty work done and I was parked in the under ground parking waiting for her to get off work. Suddenly all of these cops come pouring in the parking area in cars, bicycles and on foot with guns drawn because I found out later an alarm had gone off and here I sit looking like a get-away vehicle and all of these guns are pointed at me, thinking "oh shit, I didn't do it"! Needless to say, everything turned out cool.
My wife got pissed when I told her we were moving from Albuquerque to Lake Havasu. To this day, she still would like to get out of this heat and move back to Albuquerque. I remember getting into arguments with working buddies that were assigned in Florida over which city is actually older, St. Augustine or Albuquerque. Although St. Augustine FL is stated as the oldest town in the country, I think Albuquerque is actually older because I worked with people that their families had been in the Albuquerque area for hundreds of years. After some investigation, I found that St. Augustine is older when stated as a town consistently occupied. However, Albuquerque was inhabited by the Romans as early as 218 B.C.
Albuquerque has tons of history.
This trip is going to be really cool. Although the SW-FOG is being held in Taos, all of New Mexico is really cool if you are into history.
