Best wishes back to you Mick. I’m still hopeful to make this and recently got my cylinders and heads back on the HotRod bike after doing the case repairs.

I wouldn't bet a nickel on that, either way. Looks like a no win, no matter which I'd pick. Sorry, guys, I just couldn't resist.

BTW, Mick, did you reserve a site, yet?

Not many sites left with power.
I got site #4 for May 15 to 18. Site #2 is still open for those dates.
My head has never been right so good choice to no bet on me winning.

I should have room for two people with tents on my site.

Just booked site #2 for 3 nights. I will assume I also have room for a couple tents. I'll be using the trailer this time as well.

Good to see it coming together!
From past experience and hope others may join us, I grabbed #5. Nearby, no power.

We now have two reservations and three people confirmed.
Greg, Paul, and Joe have also voiced some interest in being there.

And so it begins. I can’t wait.

Sweet
Taking the bike out of stasis tomorrow. Going to swap out the Bobcat with a set of cycle shack mufflers pipes as part of the annual spring maintenance routine. Getting to old for wicked loud pipes.

About 50 days to go.

50 days might give me enough time to have the HotRod bike rock-n-rolling. Seriously, 50 could be enough, well..........maybe, gulp!
