Great it will be a nice ride

I would say if we plan to do any riding in the area around the Dells, we need to be on the road by at least noon maybe earlier.

I will get a better picture tonight about Kerry's hours. I would like to leave no later than noon and take Hwy 12 all the way up or just get on the big road and just get there and bring Hwy 12 back. Have the meeting eather at supper or right after. I wanted to talk with Riley and Anvil and get something done with them too before we all head up. I am also getting the meeting in June 5th Road America set up with Anvil to see what details to pass on to all for that date. Will have July 17 meeting in LaCrosse set up so everyone has that in there hands also.
Skinny

My reservations are made!! Anyone planning to go should make their's soon. The hotel gave me a double for the price of a single as they had no singles left. How many are definite? Any idea?

[Skinny]

If we half of the turn out that we had last month. I have some door prizes coming up from Hal and Dawg. I have made mine too..

[bkoning]

Hey guys,

I'm new here to the WI forum, and missed the April 17 meeting. Sounds like alot of fun was had. From those who missed that first meeting-is May 15 the next 'get together'? A friend and I (plus wife/girlfriend) would be interested in joining the group.

Located in Madison- will ride anywhere.

Brad

Brad,

The first meeting was a great time and pretty well attended. The next and most future gatherings will be more of a group ride. The 15th we are riding to the Dells and staying at the motel in the first post in this thread. Mainly just an opporunity to ride and hang out. Any and all riders are welcome regardless of brand. Take a look at the messages here in the Wi forum and let any of us know if you have any questions. Otherwise get a room reserved and lets make some arrangements for you to hook up with us on the way up on the 15th.

And Welcome to the club :)

[Skinny]

aboard Brad and freinds, Feel free to make the meeting at the Dells and meet some new X Riders from all over. Hope to meet you At the Dells any thing we can do give us a shout.
Skinny

[vtxed]

They only have doubles left but shes giving the vtxers the same price as a single. There going fast so make a reservation.

VTXED Steve

If only we get the same weather as today 4-29-04

[Smoken'JOE]

Wife and I make two. Hope they still have some rooms left. Will call in the morning..............

[rotton]

A group ride would be a great way to go. I would even be interested in leaving Friday. Dennis and Sharon will be coming to. [/img][/code][/list][/quote]

[VTXFlyer]

When is everyone leaving?? I thought that Friday was the day to meet up there and then riding all day Saturday.....We are still going to go up on Friday. Since my wife is still a new rider, we will probably travel by ourselves (speed). Can't wait to hook up with everyone again, and sounds like we're going to meet even more X-Riders!! :D

Come on SUNSHINE!!!!!

Sam & Druanne

[Skinny]

I can only leave Saturday 12:00ish from Chris Burlington, my route is Hwy 11 west to Hwy 43 West to Beloit to I 90 West to Madison, will meet up with WI_VTX in Madison @ Hwy 151 and I 94 at the Cheese house, than will go straight to the Dells for check-in and a ride, Supper, Meeeting, And just sit around a shout the bull for the night. Am Breakfest check out Take Hwy 12 to Hwy 43 to Hwy 11 to Burlington from that point..
Than Miller Time I am home.

Those that can leave earler on Friday for the Dells I am happy you can, Please do ride safely, pm each other and make plans to meet each other for your ride up.

Hey Flyer, Want to meet at Chris' on Fri. and ride up as a group if we can get together. We took off on Fri. from work and will be riding up fri. Say about 11 at Chris' and leave about 12 after a burger or something.
Anyone else thinking of hooking up would be great. Nice lazy ride up to the motel sounds like our kind of weekend.

Or if there is a better or more central for everyone then we could meet there.

As Skinny said I am planning on leaving Milwaukee around 12:15 on Sat (the 15th) and meeting him at the junction of Rt 151 and 94 at the cheese House no later than 1:30 then straight to the Dells and get checked in so we can ride. Regardless of what everyone does ... we need to plan a meeting point (probably the motel office) for Saturday afternoon so we can get out and ride. I would say 3:30pm in front of the office, gassed and ready to ride. Anyone who has ideas for a good lazy afternoon ride in the area feel free to speak up. Any riders in the Milwaukee area that want to ride out together on Saturday, let me know so we can meet up, maybe grab lunch before we leave.

[DAWG]

OK Skinny, Stuff is on it's way.

Skinny

[vtxed]

The wife is into this ride to. She even ordered a T shirt from Dawg, Oh I also have one on the way with hot flames on sleeves. And for added touch the pin( Had to get that ). Might ride up Fri also since the wife will complain if we go Sat then ride more in the PM. That way she can rest and be fresh for Sat without bitching so much.

It's my B-Day on the 12th so this will be a extension of my 44th year on this planet

Thanks Dawg

[David]

I've booked the hotel.

Not sure how many from the NW Chicago S'burbs are heading up. I can't do Friday, but am available all weekend to cruise the Dells.

I'd like to make it to Chris' and then out with Skinny and group on Saturday. If anyone in my area wants to group ride up to Chris' (like we did last time), get up there with time to grab a burger and beverage with Skinny then on the road with him by noon.

Sounds like leaving around 10:00 a.m. ish - say at the Sheraton in Rolling Meadows again (like we did last time)? Post here and I'll keep track.

[DAWG]

I may be able to ride up but will probably have to then ride back here to Mt. Prospect. Gotta keep the store open.

My plans have changed Skinny. My wife can't get off on Fri. so I'll be going up with the "group" from Chris'. Man is this gonna be a blast............

[Gbert]

I'm all booked at the motel!

WI VTXER, let's plan a meeting place again, and we can ride up there. Is there a good group going from Milwaukee?

Gbert

So far just you, me, and a couple of my friends. No one else has said anything but all are welcome. I am figuring meeting either at Milwaukee Harley (45 and Sliver Spring) or Mayfair mall US Bank parking lot (North and hwy 100).

Will miss ya brother

[David]

DAWG,

I'd like to come visit when the rest of the gang comes in from WI. I'll keep track of Skinny's schedule for riding down (he mentioned "some Saturday", but I don't see a date yet) and just meet them when they pull into town. I don't have your address either, so I'll look to Skinny to anounce the ride and destination (he's really good at that :D , did anyone mention we are going to vote him President? :? )

BTY, I'm a XXL and would really like a patch to add to my jacket. Will certainly do the balance of the threads and gadgets also. I'm all for supporting our team mates.

Oh, and long sleves. Trip up to Burlington resulted in a pretty good sunburn on the arms, Don't want that again. :oops:

[DAWG]

Adress is 420 Maple, Just south of the bermuda Triangle,
(83 / 12 / Kensington)

That's my home Studio. No Store front as of yet. More important to put food on the table.



I believe he said the 8th

DAWG

[David]

Thanks DAWG, I put my onder in on your web site since I'm tied up on the 8th. (I'm the Motorola address)

[rzieroth]

Just paid for my VTX today. Will be picking it up tomorrow.

I will make it down there next weekend. I probably won't spend the night.

What's the plan. I should be able to make it down there anytime on Saturday. Possibly even Sunday morning for breakfast. It's about an hours ride for me. I am in Wisconsin Rapids.

Paul Bunyan's is a great restaurant for breakfast. All you can eat, served family style.

Picked up a new 02 1800C Illusion Blue. Got a great deal. I have about $3000 in options picked out, plus taxes, license and setup fees and my total will still be under $13000.
