Who has the info on the KY Guzzi Rally near Frankfort, KY.  It's coming up (I think) and it's a good one to attend.

We're coming and are renting a camper from the proprietor. Comfy, warm,  and quiet.

So far, the plan is for the Kid to bring his Spot and I'll ride the Mighty Scura. Dorcia will pull the camper down. She's a good girl..

Tony, I did a little cut/paste from your response on the other thread in hopes of making the rally more noticeable. Hopefully, the mods will merge that thread into this one.

I restarted this with a heading and campfire. Looking forward to it, just to get the info right on top in the first post. (Did a little copy/paste on ITSEC's response.)

Thanks everyone for putting our rally info up. Wood is cut and split, Karla has the chili made, meat ordered for Sat. night. Hope I'm here to enjoy it. Irma looks to be a real bitch. Hoping my crew gets left here to cover the home front.

I'll be there Friday and part of Saturday morning, then heading out the AIM show in Columbus.  Can't wait to see everyone.

Hard to believe as I've been an MG owner and enthusiast for some 13 or more years now and never been to the KY Rally.  Gonna try to get up there at least one day this year.

It really is a fantastic place to host a rally. I kind of miss the old pavilion with its shingled roof, (the tin gets noisy if getting rained on), but a nice boxed in fireplace at one end insures a place to get warm whenever needed.

Evidently, it's possible to rent a camper there, based on a previous post here in this thread. (I recall you have back troubles.) The most social times are usually in the evenings.

Good luck, John..

Just a few short days away now................ .

I'm heading down Wednesday.

John Henry

[Chuck in Indiana]

We're headed down Thursday.
For those of you that might not know.. there's a Chihuly exhibit at Maker's Mark through October.
Reservations recommended. I've never been there, but I understand it's a nice ride from the rally.

Chuck,  I don't know if you're aware of it or not but Chihuly is an artist in blown glass.  We have some of his works here in Columbus.  Unfortunately, his works don't hold any liquid so you have to buy the booze separately.  BTW, Makers Mark is good stuff.

I'm planning on arriving on Thursday also.  I don't know about Nick from NJ or Laura/Dwight Blake from PA.

Ride safe out there.

Oh, yeah.. as a patron of the arts.. I'm very familiar with his work, and am looking fwd to seeing what is there.

Unfortunately, his works don't hold any liquid

Doh!

Handy Andy, Mary (the Deerslayer) and I will roll in Thursday afternoon, Mary in a sag wagon (aka Buick).

Hard to believe as I've been an MG owner and enthusiast for some 13 or more years now and never been to the KY Rally.  Gonna try to get up there at least one day this year. 

Hope you can make it Brian. Would like to meet you and eyeball that V9

That's the plan. Brad is bringing his Spot. Don't know if Dorcia is up to that long of a ride or not.
If not, she'll drive the van.

[beardog]

I will be there with about eight friends.

It's no fun at all.. several of the usual suspects..


John (orange guzzi) gives a wave from the side of the stone fireplace.

Looking good. 60's at night and mid to upper 80's during the day with mostly sunny skies.

Should be a nice weekend!

The Kid arrived late last night from Wisconsin. We'll meander to the rally today via back roads.
