      Look in the Meetingplace.

      The IL guys are doing a spring and fall meet this year aka Fennimore, WI.

        worst case there's more than a few of us scattered between Minn, Iowa, and Wisconsin that never do seem to get out often enough.

        Like was mentioned before though keep an eye out on the meeting room... There's Brown County Indiana in May and Fennimore in late September (though looks like we're adding an extra one this year too)... If you have the cash and vacation time we've got group rates for the MotoGP in Indianapolis as well if you're into racing.

              I've tried to get some of y'all southerners down there in the snow, rain, sleet and tornado belt around the Twin Cities to come up here to God's country where many many twisty roads reside among, betwixt and between the lakes, the sun always shines and the only time you can't ride is when it's snowy or icy, y'know 2 or 3 days a month for 3 or 4 months..........

                Whenever you put something together I'll try my d*mnedest to get there. It's about the same distance to the twins as it is to Brown County via superslab.

                    That's because all the city folk come up here for deer hunting season, scare them all into hiding, and when they're hiding they do what they wanted to do anyway, procreate, then there are more bambis to avoid than there were before....

                      ... I'm not averse to a little traveling for a get together. If enough advance notice was given I imagine a half dozen from the Missouri Valley would show up. Getting folks within 200 miles of Omaha together for a ride takes weeks,so planning is a must. I am willing to do more than just show up. If someone handle the logistics and determine what needs to be done, I'll take on a bit of responsibility.

                        Hi DDM!

                        I live in White Bear Lake, MN and I have tried a few times to get us MN guys together.

                        It would be great to do a ride together. I just got my 79 fired up and took a nice ride on Sunday.

                          Bradleymaynar, I just recognized your signature. Hilarious.
                          It would be great to take a ride on my GS to Castle Anthrax.

                            I'm not positive, but I don't think I've any open weekends until June. With spring concerts, graduations, and the start of the motorcycle training season, I'm all of a sudden going to be busy. I'd like to host a get together up here in the slowly thawing north though, I've got lots of camping room and a whole lot of good riding around these parts.

                              Dan, let's do this. Set a date. I will come up. I love the Northland (except the prospect of hitting a deer )
