No excuses based on the weather forecast this year guys .

 Thursday April 21     82  light winds
 Friday      April 22     72  light winds
 Saturday April 23      78 light winds
 Sunday   April 24      76 light winds
 
 No rain in the forecast

Man, y'all have a lot better weathermen than we have in Texas as they can't even predict the weather for the next day. At the


Texas rally in Lindale those with the fancy weather gizmos were all saying "Lookee here at this big storm coming in." Never got a drop!

Is the camping on the hard concrete floor of the barn, or do we have at least some soft earth on which to pitch a tent?  Weather looks great!!

 Plenty of soft ground to pitch a tent on , in fact , maybe the softest ground anywhere . No rocks at all, like having a feather bed  :thumb:

 Gary Scott , Kevin , and Dave and Dottie are already in Cedar Vale  :shocked: Apparently Gary was a bit confused re the dates  :laugh: I told them to hang out until next Thursday and the rest of us would join them , although maybe the locals might not tolerate Gary for a whole week  :evil:

Giving the EV a careful walk around inspection, I stopped at the rear tire and thought, "yeah, that rubber will meet my needs for those challenging Kansas roads".  Well provided I don't go more than 500 miles.   :wink:

If all goes according to my scheming plan, I'm should be bringing a little customized schwag for the rally, donations from sales of said schwag will go back to the organizers and to defray small costs...

Twisted Oz Motorcycle Museum, Augusta Kansas

open Weds - Sat.  It's about 65 miles from CV and 20 miles due east of Wichita. 

Might make a good day trip and lunch ride (perhaps Friday if we go to Wool Arc on Sat?).

Dang, Swede, Chet, Luap, LR, all coming this year. Makes me feel guilty for not being able to make it. And I usually don't feel.  Next year we will have our toy hauler and we'll be there. Lorraine's horsed overs, my cigars and scotch, and hot showers available. Ya'll have a great time. And Rocker, thanks for volunteering to take copious amounts of photos.  What? You don't remember volunteering?  We all heard ya volunteer. Lol
