States represented .

 Wisconsin
 Minnesota
 Iowa
 Louisiana
 Texas
 Oregon
 Washington
 Indiana
 Nebraska
 California
 Arkansas
 Missouri
 Kansas
 Colorado
 Ohio
 Oklahoma

 Maybe we can claim Turkey and France also , and we have had one attendee from The Netherlands. Now we need a couple of Canadians and Ozzies to round this out  :laugh: Not to slight our members from the UK , or Singapore , or well , from anywhere .

 Who have I missed ? Looking like another increase in attendance  :thumb:

The list isn't in alphabetical order, or in any other order as far as I can tell.

I'm a numbers guy.  I want to see how many are attending from each state.  That seems more important than the alphabetical listing of the states.

How about 10 lb. chicken leg qt. And 10 lb. potatoes.  Surely we can do something with that.  And flour and lard for biskets and gravy.  No weight watches I hope.Rudy

Thanks Bob. It's Road King and I. We have decided on a 1 hour delay tomorrow just to insure that any possible ice on bridges will have melted off. Where I am, the high today was 37 with a cold, damp light wind coming off the lake. I don't want to risk discovering a bridge that is slippery.

Although cold in the morning, the sun is supposed to be shining. Looking forward to escaping this piece of the world for a few days.

You guys have a great ride!  Tell Dusty "hello" from the Ohio wimp that stayed behind!  Today's weather sucked, but looks like the next few days will be a dramatic improvement.  Catch up with you when you get back with some great stories about the rally.

I just did a BBQ for my local club today.  I'll probably to go to CV.

I have bag of charcoal and maybe 50 place settings (plastic ware, salt & pepper and napkin sets).   Let me know if you want any of it.

And I have the trailer, so I can pick up anything else.  Just let me know.

My niece in Overland Park says the weather forecast is not too good -- severe thunderstorms beginning Tuesday evening through Wednesday and lots of rain Thursday.  Is this a repeat of last year?

Ride safe guys (and gals).  I'm still on schedule to arrive on Thursday.

Well, last year, many of the roads we rode on the last day were the only thing above water. I recall seeing a city park on the way home that was submerged on the way out. At least I don't think that is the case this year. :shocked:

What is a trip without some precipitation? The less the better though, hence our decision to leave today rather than yesterday. 37 degrees and raining here yesterday would not be a fun way to begin a trip. Today, it will not be much warmer, if any, but at least the sun should be shining. Looking to depart at 9AM.

We won't be there til Friday. Need to go to the pawn shop, plasma center etc. Slicer sez he can't make it, but to give his love to the prince of platitudes. WHAT? Oh, he meant the Sultan of Cedarvale, J. Throckmorton Dusty.

We'll be in the quadra-cycle. Yes, Yes, I'll have rags soaked in coal tar around my ankles to keep the ants of my candy ass.
