We're gonna have to put this off. Will try again next year. Maybe early in the year. Thanks for the interest though, and if something changes, I'll let you all know.

I've been working outside for the better part of 6 months in my front yard. I own 20 acres in rural SW Missouri. Most of it is hilly and rough. But, while cleaning up my driveway from under-brush and other limbs, rocks, etc, I discovered that it would be very easy to put several tents and bikes on the place. It's mostly flat too.

So, I thought I'd put out my feelers and see who may be interested in coming for a night at some point in the future. I was thinking about a 1 night deal. Maybe a ride over on Saturday and ride home on Sunday type thing. I have a 1000 sq foot shop to put up some tables for coffee, vittles, etc. We can even wrench on a bike if you wanted too. There is no public restrooms, but there are 20 acres of woods and I do have a water hose,

, so it would be a "semi-primitive" thing. If you sweet talk the Mrs, she may let you in the house to use the restroom :-) The only other downside is I live on a gravel road. It's not loose, but it is gravel. It's around a mile from the highway.

So, who's in?

Oh, did I mention pool?

the WildGuzzi Homecoming!
are you sure one day will suffice? You could charge a fee and we'd all pay. . pay off your server costs..
maybe get a porta potty or two..?

that's coming from Minnesota and I don't even have a Guzzi to ride there (right now) so not sure I could make it but I would love to..

Swimming pool or Billiards?

I was thinking of doing the same thing at my place outside of Chattanooga Tn sometime. Maybe I'l wait and see if you get much interest. If I am available, I would do my best to go also. Although my Guzzi got totaled in my last acident I still got the Gold Wing and the 1971 Honda CB 750 Chopper!!!. LOL

The date depends on if I can get grass to grow in the newly cleared spot.

I was thinking one day because of the lack of showers and stuff. Money is not that important. Just an opportunity to relax. Yes, above ground swimming pool. There's a creek down the road a mile too.

I actually did the old campout on Mothers Day. Steve did his Arkansas deal on Fathers day. I'll ponder some dates. Just mainly wanted to see who would show up. I know the dates are important. Enough people show up, and I'll get a porta john brought out.

Jim Rich · « **Reply #15 on:** March 14, 2016, 09:53:38 PM »

I'm interested. Like to see you guys and get to ride in Missouri again.

leroysch · « **Reply #16 on:** March 14, 2016, 10:30:32 PM »

I'd stop by and say hello.....

PJPR01 · « **Reply #17 on:** March 14, 2016, 10:37:42 PM »

Oh fun...another Guzzi rally! Could be Luap...that'd probably be 2 days up and then a circle around...depends a bit on when/work travel etc....but another good excuse for a trip!

SmithSwede · « **Reply #18 on:** March 14, 2016, 11:12:55 PM »

That's a very generous offer.

I'm in.

Sheepdog · « **Reply #19 on:** March 14, 2016, 11:44:56 PM »

I can prolly make it.

Huzo · « **Reply #20 on:** March 15, 2016, 01:28:18 AM »

Hats off to you Luap, I'd love to be there but will be in Europa at that time with the Norge. Looks like you have a ground swell of interest, and probably a real tonic for the forum ?? A great idea and deserves to be a success

jcctx · « **Reply #21 on:** March 15, 2016, 09:12:54 AM »

I was at the first one and most of the rest; so I'm in for the re-do, if at all possible. Have to be on 4 wheels, tho!!

Orange Guzzi · « **Reply #22 on:** March 15, 2016, 10:29:07 AM »

I am not planning a rally or campout, but, I do have a place for camping, hot and cold water, shower, toilet, shelter and tools for those that may be traveling thru my area. You are more than welcome to throw up a tent and spend the night. Notice, I said the night?

Testarossa · « **Reply #23 on:** March 15, 2016, 10:39:33 AM »

Driving the van, with a bike on the back, to Chicago for my 50th high school reunion, Sept 10. If the timing is right, we'd detour to attend.

StuCorpe · « **Reply #24 on:** March 15, 2016, 10:39:48 AM »

Very interesting, a lot would depend on the date involved!

maquette · « **Reply #25 on:** March 15, 2016, 12:20:29 PM »

June? After about the 15th. We start our summer at the WNY rally and need a few days to get there. :

I'll be there if the date works out.
Thanks for the offer.

I think that that would be righteously cool and if the route and timing are good - I want in!

Todd.
