Well, another Rally has come and gone and I for one am sad it's over. We had so much fun laughing and riding together that I wish we could do it every weekend. I want to commend everyone for sticking together during the rides. Leading a pack of 18 bikes down roads I'm not familiar with can be daunting but you all made it easier by keeping up. And having Merlin ride sweep and keeping in touch with me was a huge help.
I've always said riding with me is an adventure and for those that didn't make the trip, you missed some good ones! We had a lot of saddle time in the rain and sun. Got to be in 3 states at once, saw some gangsters, rode a lot of smooth/rough roads to places we'd never been before and ate like we'd never eaten before.  There were even some firsts for some folks. First Rally, first time rain-riding, first crawdads, etc. And several folks filled out their ride cards on the trip. We even had a Panther Creek member ride the entire time with us. Maybe he'll come join our group! 
Looking forward to the next big trip with the passle. Y'all are a fun group and I always have a good time with you.
