KIRKmfg,
I'm a little further south, but Crystal Lake is not far for a Saturday get together.
Are you planning on attending the Wisconsin gathering next Sat.?
There is a Sunday meeting in Naperville, with a ride to Lake Geneva planned.

Sounds good, thinking about heading up to the Algonquin Roadhouse this Sunday for the ABATE run.
Are there any weekly get togethers in this area that you know of?

Sorry i haven't been at a meeting since the first one. I pretty much had to give up on the club right off the bat as my work requires me to be on call. What little riding time i get is usually on the way to some place I have to be.
If you post some rides though I'll keep my eyes open and maybe hook up if possible.

You need to upload your image to the web first, then click on the <IMG> tag in your post to this board, and point to the web address of your image.

TWISTAR ride is this weekend. Might be too short notice for most of ya'all.
It is a Friday evening commute to Reedsburg, WI (unless you can get there by 9:00 a.m. before registration closes) - then an all day ride in the area on Saturday, with a lunch stop set up and a dinner that evening.
They accept walk-up registration, and hotels should still be available. The web site has hotel and organizer contact information.

Try this site. A lot of people on the forum use it. You can post pics from your hard drive to it and then to the forum. It's easy.

Sure are a lot of VTX riders in the area, lets put some plans together to meet up.
There is a weekly cruise night in downtown Crystal Lake on Thursdays, not sure when the first week is for this but should be soon.
My schedule is a bit up in the air for Saturday but looks like a 755 chance I will be out and about on the bike.
Lets pick a place, day and time!

Hi Vanhalen,
I talked to you on Sunday as you were on your bike leaving the Broken Oar. Always like to meet other VTXers, maybe I'll see you up there again?
Rich
P.S. Great paint job!

Acrotech,
I think it's a great idea to get together with other local VTXers. I have an 1800c and my brother has an 1800n we both live in Crystal Lake. The Cruise Night starts on the first Thursday in June. We are going to be there.
Maybe we can hook-up before then?

I'm gonna go meet Pete (VTXROCKETEER) at his hotel in Elgin and see if I can talk him into following me up north to Hooters in Crystal Lake. We probably won't be there until 6:30 or so.

Cool, I will probably be there for the cruise night. Was hoping to ride today but this damn rain is getting old. I buy a bike and it rains just about every day. If I bought a boat the lakes and rivers would dry up! :evil:

We had a pretty good sized group at the Crystal Lake Hooters last night (Tuesday). Pam talked to the manager, they want to host a Two-Wheel Tuesday at their place. They want to promote, and are considering an occasional raffle and/or awards type session.
So, I'm going to post a new topic announcing this for the NW Suburbs as a weekly get-together option.
Once I get official verbiage from Hooters, I'll post it.
