I don't let anyone know if I'm illegally crossing a state line. Does someone want to take my place when it is Friday date night in prison? SmithSwede is not doing pro bono work nor does he want to take a case that he has no chance in winning.

Will I be there? I couldn't get someone to post the $200 bail bond last time. Is it worth crossing the Red River to have a good time at the Okie camp out? HMMM, decisions.

I'm still on the fence. I don't know that I feel like riding all the way from CenTex in the rain tomorrow.

Hop off that fence!   Rain is no big deal.  And when you arrive, the rain should be over for the rest of the weekend. 

Hope you decide to go

I’m thinking I will be arriving Friday mid morning.
The best part of riding a motorcycle is to tilt the horizon and to lift the front coming out of a corner and to drift the back end powering thru loose dirt and to catch a little air topping a hill and... yeah it's all good!

This popped up on my FB page from 5 years ago. It's just before the big monsoon hit that blessed me with 2 inches of rain in my tent.

We're planning on heading out of SGF about 10:00 if we don't get a rain delay.

 Was that the year of the Bigfoot sighting that scared Colleen at 2 AM ?

Unfortunately, overtime notice for the weekend just went up at work, so I won't be able to attend. On the bright side, next year, I'll have an additional week of vacation, so I'll be able to save some time for this. Hope you all ride safe, and have a good time!

You know your at a Guzzi event when

I arrive at 830 and everyone is in bed!

Someone left the sprinkler system on.

Glad I made it. Going from McAllister to camp ground in heavy rain, at night wasn't very fun. Ruts in road are rivers. And the new roads f'n disappear!

Ready for a great weekend.

Gassed up tonight for an early start tomorrow.   Then noticed that the rear tire is now showing steel cords.  Looked ok two days ago. 

Crap !!!   Oh well.  Better to know at home than 500 miles from home.

I’ll either pop a new tire on early tomorrow morning or I’ll take the Triumph.   Except I don’t want to take the Triumph.

OK, so we were out, riding around...... looking for Bigfoot.  We never really saw him, but we found this Guzzi, out in the wilds of Oklahoma


.
.



and THEN we got a glimpse of THIS guy !






And then we tried to catch him, but who knew he could ride a motorcycle ???  And then he escaped !





The roads were interesting







and (of course) we have our own mechanics





and then there was the galactic standard camp fire and FOOD and cigars and beer and stuff
