Okay, I'll post here avigar if you give me 1 or 2 reasons (false or otherwise untrue) why you didn't make it. :D Couldn't be the weather...weather was fantastic! Couldn't be the disdainful fellowship of yer local and "unlocal" (or is it loco) FJR riders...

Now I WOULD believe it if you said you had a lousy BOSS and the fascists wouldn't let you go out and play...those bastards!

So what is it? What's de excuses??

Ohhhh, never mind...

Well, I don't have any ride shots -damn- because I don't so happen to have any professional ride photographer riding as pillion (O'vale- uhhh can I "borrow" Mrs O'vale for a ride documentary...no not THAT kind of ride documentary!! :angry2: )

Had some fun riding on the way up Friday (Thanks Blindman & Mrs Blindman for the company- oh yeah, WHAT FOG :dribble: )

Hey Dev,

Thanks for the shirt and hat. They are first rate! Hope to ride with you Minnesota guys again...

 
I've got some pics to throw up here, but somebody is going to have to do it for me... computer challenged... I can email them though.

How many riders showed up?

I didn't make a head count, but between 35 & 40 showed up I think. Ride group size was generally between 2 & 6 riders per group. All who showed up had a good time I think. I know I did.

SW WI is sweeper heaven with a few twisties thrown in at a couple of locations. Great scenic views along some ridge roads and there was the fun hidden valley runs along creeks...

Can you tell I had fun?! :) :)

Trini the Trickster. Oh so clever. And yes, that is a Tampon I'm doin' the Groucho impression with. A formal presentation was made, with all the ceremony such a gift would demand.... :p

Was that tampon to go w/ your tiara? BTW Rad... you show everyone your manliest mammories?

 
Here are some piccies that zzzzip took during his trip to and during cfo. One of the piccies is a group shot at lunch

Another shot is of a historical marker describing an event during the black hawk war

Other shots are of some farm scenes with some animals in this area -

Others are of some local architecture and historical buildings...

:) nice pictures thus far, glad everyone had a good time.

I think it would be cool to be able to hit a couple events back to back next year. :rolleyes:

Keep posting the pics, posting names/logins with them would be great too.

My pics are pretty much double from what most have. I'm a little late in getting them posted as I had trouble downloading them last night. I'll try again a get some that are different. I'll talk and show later. And yes it was a BLAST. Had a lot of fun.
